Overview
The liver function test is important for people who are at risk for developing liver conditions. The risks are obesity, diabetes, autoimmune conditions, eating unhealthy food, and drinking excessive alcohol.
The liver function test is comprehensive and includes these tests:
- Total protein
- Albumin
- Globulin
- Albumin to globulin ratio
- Liver enzyme test that checks levels of ALP (alkaline phosphatase), ALT (alanine transaminase), AST (aspartate aminotransferase), and GGT (gamma-glutamyl transferase)
- Total bilirubin test that measures the levels of bilirubin, a waste product produced in the liver
- Direct and indirect bilirubin
- SGOT and SGPT test
- SGPT to SGOT ratio
- Lactate dehydrogenase test, which measures the LDH enzymes. This enzyme is produced by the damaged cells of the liver.

Test Necessity
The liver function test will be prescribed if there are symptoms of liver disease like:
- Weight loss for no reason
- Weakness
- Yellow skin and eyes
- Swollen abdomen
- Nausea
- Pale stool
- Dark urine
The liver function test will also have to be done regularly if you have any other diseases like:
- Cirrhosis
- Jaundice
- Fatty liver
- Hepatitis
- Chronic alcoholic liver disease
Test Preparation
You have to be fasting before the liver function test. Food can impact the levels of protein and enzymes, causing inaccurate test results. Hence it is important to fast for 10 to 12 hours. Only drink water during the fasting period.
During the Liver Function Test (LFT)
Once the liver function test has been booked, a phlebotomist will be assigned who comes to your house to collect the blood sample. The test is done in a hygienic manner, using fresh disposable kits. The phlebotomist first uses the vein finder device to locate the best vein to draw blood from, cleans the area with ethanol, and uses sterilized needles and gloves. The samples are carefully stored in barcoded vials then transported to the lab for testing.
