Differences of SGOT-SGPT Levels in Serum and EDTA Plasma in Hepatitis B Patients

Hepatitis is a disorder in liver inflammation that can be caused by infection with parasites, protozoa, bacteria, viruses, metabolic disorders, drugs, and alcohol causes damage to human cells attack all ages, genders, races throughout the world. Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT) Pyruvic (SGPT) levels EDTA plasma tend increase more than serum. It because contains coagulation factors interfere examining SGOT SGPT on device. In contrast, serum consists of proteins, electrolytes, antibodies, antigens, hormones do not contain factors. This study aims compare samples B patients. type research an experimental study. was conducted 35 hepatitis specimens then tested using enzymatic method Humastar 100 (spectrophotometry). Abnormal (>27 U/L) were 54.3% 51.4% EDTA. (>34 22.9% 25.7% EDTA, so there insignificant difference samples.
