Total Protein (TP) (Partnership)
About This Test
Total protein reflects the combined amount of albumin and globulins in your blood. It helps show how well the liver is making proteins and whether the body is losing or producing extra proteins due to illness. Abnormal results can point to nutrition problems, kidney loss of protein, chronic inflammation, or some blood disorders. This test is commonly included in routine check-ups to screen for potential problems early.
