A bilirubin test is performed to assess one's liver health since bilirubin levels that are higher than the normal range may indicate problems with the liver or bile duct. With Max Lab, it's incredibly easy to set up a low-cost bilirubin test (serum) with at-home sample collection.

 

Overview of the Bilirubin Total and Direct Test

A yellowish pigment called bilirubin is present in blood. It results from the breakdown of red blood cells. This bilirubin is used by the liver to make bile, which facilitates digestion. Healthy individuals excrete most of their daily production of 250–350 mg of bilirubin in their stools and urine. The serum bilirubin test, commonly known as the s bilirubin test, is typically advised to check for blockages like gallstones or liver diseases like hepatitis. Direct bilirubin, or conjugated bilirubin, is the portion of bilirubin in a serum sample that is bound to the glucose-containing acid glucuronic; indirect bilirubin, or unconjugated bilirubin, is the remaining portion. 

 

When is the Bilirubin Total and Direct Test Prescribed?

Testing for serum (sr) bilirubin may be required for a number of reasons. These include:

  • If a person displays symptoms of gallbladder illness or disorders of the liver, such as cirrhosis, hepatitis, etc., a total and direct bilirubin test may be advised for a diagnosis. Black urine, jaundice, and stomach ache are a few examples of these symptoms.
  • The test can also help in determining whether the bile ducts, which carry bile from the liver, are blocked in any way.
  • The bilirubin blood test is also advised for monitoring the development of any liver disorders or diseases that may already be present and for assessing the effectiveness of a treatment plan. 
  • To identify any medical issues that can influence how red blood cells are destroyed. The bilirubin test is used by physicians to identify conditions like haemolytic anaemia, in which the body consumes red blood cells more quickly than it can generate them.
  • The test is additionally used to examine neonates with jaundice for liver disease. This can be the result of common metabolic alterations or it might be a sign of a serious illness.

The bilirubin test is one of many tests used in Mumbai as part of a standard full-body physical examination to assess the condition of the liver. The price of these panels also includes readings for bilirubin, total protein, albumin, alkaline phosphate, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine transaminase.
