2. Thyroxine-binding globulin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroxine-binding_globulin

   Thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) is a globulin protein encoded by the SERPINA7 gene in humans. TBG binds thyroid hormones in circulation.It is one of three transport proteins (along with transthyretin and serum albumin) responsible for carrying the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T 4) and triiodothyronine (T 3) in the bloodstream.

3. Thyroid hormone binding ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_hormone_binding_ratio

   Thyroid hormone binding ratio (THBR) is a thyroid function test that measures the "uptake" of T3 or T4 tracer by thyroid-binding globulin (TBG) in a given serum sample. This provides an indirect and reciprocal estimate of the available binding sites on TBG within the sample.

4. Thyroid function tests - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_function_tests

   Thyroid function tests (TFTs) is a collective term for blood tests used to check the function of the thyroid. [1] TFTs may be requested if a patient is thought to suffer from hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) or hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), or to monitor the effectiveness of either thyroid-suppression or hormone replacement therapy.

5. Urine test strip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urine_test_strip

   Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is known to interfere with the oxidation reaction of the blood and glucose pad on common urine test strips. Some urine test strips are protected against the interference with iodate, which eliminates ascorbic acid by oxidation. [25] Some test strips include a test for urinary ascorbate.

Specifically, test strip may refer to: Food testing strips; Glucose meter test strip; Lipolysis test strip; Urine test strip; Universal indicator pH test strips; It may also refer to: Teststrip, an art gallery in Auckland, New Zealand

7. Reverse triiodothyronine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_triiodothyronine

   Reverse triiodothyronine, also known as rT 3, is an isomer of triiodothyronine (T 3).. Reverse T 3 is the third-most common iodothyronine the thyroid gland releases into the bloodstream, at 0.9%; tetraiodothyronine (levothyroxine, T 4) constitutes 90% and T 3 is 9%.
