2. Serum iron - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serum_iron

   Serum iron is a medical laboratory test that measures the amount of circulating iron that is bound to transferrin and freely circulate in the blood. Clinicians order this laboratory test when they are concerned about iron deficiency, which can cause anemia and other problems. 65% of the iron in the body is bound up in hemoglobin molecules in red blood cells.

3. Transferrin saturation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transferrin_saturation

   Normal reference ranges are: [citation needed] Serum iron: 60–170 μg/dL (10–30 μmol/L) Total iron-binding capacity: 240–450 μg/dL; Transferrin saturation: average 25%. [6] Reference ranges depend on multiple factors like age, sex, race and test devices. Most laboratories define “normal” as max. 30% for female and max. 45% for male ...

4. Iron overload - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_overload

   [34] [35] [36] In premenopausal females, normal range of serum ferritin is between 12 and 150 [34] or 200 [35] ng/mL (330 or 440 pmol/L). [36] In those with hemochromatosis, the serum ferritin level correlates with the degree of iron overload. [7] Ferritin levels are usually monitored serially in those with hemochromatosis to assess response to ...

   There’s a few different routes that can be taken to restore healthy iron levels in the body. Choosing the right treatment will depend on the cause of the iron deficiency, and whether there are ...

7. Total iron-binding capacity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_iron-binding_capacity

   Reference ranges for blood tests, comparing blood content of iron and related compounds (shown in brown and orange) with other constituents. Laboratories often use different units of measurement and "normal ranges" may vary by population and the laboratory techniques used.

8. Reference ranges for blood tests - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_ranges_for_blood...

   This may also be called standard range. In contrast, optimal (health) range or therapeutic target is a reference range or limit that is based on concentrations or levels that are associated with optimal health or minimal risk of related complications and diseases. For most substances presented, the optimal levels are the ones normally found in ...

9. Latent iron deficiency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_Iron_Deficiency

   Normal total iron-binding capacity for both sexes is 240 to 450 μg/dL. [6] Total iron-binding capacity increases when iron deficiency exists. [4] Serum ferritin levels reflect the iron stores available in the body. [4] The normal range is 20 to 200 ng/mL for men and 15 to 150 ng/mL for women. [8]
