SGPT/ALT (ALANINE AMINO-TRANSFERASE)
₹150.00
Test Description: SGPT/ALT (Alanine Amino-Transferase)
SGPT (Serum Glutamate-Pyruvate Transaminase), also known as ALT, is an enzyme primarily found in the liver. It plays a key role in metabolizing amino acids. Elevated levels of ALT in the blood can indicate liver damage or inflammation, often due to conditions like hepatitis, fatty liver disease, or alcohol consumption. This test is used to assess liver function, detect liver diseases, and monitor the effects of medications or substances that may impact the liver. High ALT levels typically suggest liver cell injury, warranting further evaluation for potential liver-related conditions.
