Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity (UIBC)

Organisms Included in Panel
Test Utility
Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity is used as an indicator for patients suspected of having either iron deficiency anemia or iron overload (e.g. hemochromatosis).
Urine Drug Screen Profile Includes:
Methodology
Ferrous-Iron (Fe 2+) is added to serum, which binds specifically with transferrin at unsaturated iron binding sites. An intense green complex is formed when the remaining unbound ferrous iron reacts with an indicator dye in the assay. The quantity of bound to unbound transferrin determines the Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity (UIBC).
