Alanine transaminase (or ALT) is a transaminase enzyme that is most commonly found in liver and kidney and, in less quantity, in cardiac and skeleton muscles. Elevated levels of ALT is often due to liver-cell damage as it is more specific of liver failure than AST (Aspartate Transaminase). Testing...

Alkaline phosphatase is an enzyme present in all tissues throughout the entire body, but is particularly concentrated in liver, bone, intestine, kidney and white blood cells. ALP testing may provide indication in liver failure, bone disorder and some cancers. Lowered levels may be a feature of hypot...

Amylase is a major digestion enzyme produced by the pancreas and salivary glands that breaks starch. Increased plasma levels in humans are found in acute and chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic cyst or cancer … and also in salivary glands disorders such as mumps or epidemic parotitis, tumors or lithi...

Aspartate transaminase (AST) is transaminase enzyme that is found in various tissues, but is most commonly associated with the cardiac muscle, skeleton muscle, liver and kidney. Damage to these tissue cells result in an elevated level of ASAT that may be seen in viral hepatitis, myocardial infarctio...

Creatine Kinase enzyme consists of two subunits (B for brain type or M for muscle type) resulting in three different isoenzymes: CK-MB present in the myocardium, CK-MM in striated muscle and CK-BB in the brain. Blood CK-MB testing is used in the management and the diagnostic of damage to myocardium ...

Creatine Kinase enzyme consists of two subunits (B for brain type or M for muscle type) resulting in three different isoenzymes: CK-MB present in the myocardium, CK-MM in striated muscle and CK-BB in the brain. Kinetic determination of serum or plasmatic Creatine Kinase catalytic concentration (CK...

Gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) is a membrane enzyme that is found in high concentrations in the liver, bile ducts and kidney and is also present in other tissues. GGT is involved in glutathione metabolism and in the transfer of amino acids across the cellular membrane. In a non-pathologic state, b...

Lactate dehydrogenase can be found in nearly all cells of the body with highest activity in myocardium, liver, kidney and skeletal muscle. Consequently, elevations of LDH in the serum have been considered non-specific. LDH increases in case of acute myocardium infarction, hepatic disorder, muscular ...

Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is an enzyme present in a wide variety of tissues and an elevated level cannot be considered as specific. However, it can be used as a marker of acute myocardial infarction, liver failures, muscular dystrophy, cancer, metastases, anemia …. Methodology for assay: Kineti...
