Serum alanine transaminase (ALT) reference ranges estimated from blood donors.
It has been suggested that an increase in serum alanine transaminase (ALT) activity in blood donors may identify infection with non-A, non-B hepatitis. To facilitate identification of such donors, the reference range for ALT was measured on a Technicon SMAC 1 Analyser, using serum from 364 blood donors and 567 plasmapheresis donors. The distribution of ALT activities displayed a positive skewne...
متن کاملAssessment of Serum Enzymes Gamma Glutamyl Trasnferase, Aspartate Transaminase and Alanine Transaminase in Liver Diseases
Back Ground:Liver diseases are common disorders encountered in clinical practices. Investigations in liver diseases are used to detect hepatic abnormality, to measure its severity, to define it structural effect on the liver, to look for specific causes of liver diseases, assess prognosis and to evaluate therapy. Aim and Objectives:To study and compare the altered serum levels of enzymes GGT, A...

assays for a few hours would not misguide the physician in the diagnosis of disease. We also examined the stability of creatimne and found it to be unchanged for at least five days. Finally, a word of caution for those who use the pierceable caps for the purpose of reducing the rate of sample evaporation during analysis. These caps should be used for their intended purpose only and not for long...
متن کاملSerum alanine aminotransferase ( ALT ) and y - glutamyltransferase ( y - GT ) activities in north London blood donors
Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and y-glutamyltransferase (y-GT) activities were measured in over 2000 north London blood donors. The results were compared with those from the United States. The percentage of the total donor population with ALT activities above 40 IU/l in 1986 was greater than that found in our earlier studies in 1973 and 1982 (4-6% compared with 2-8% and 3 1%, respectivel...
