Description

The SGPT (ALT) test, with ALT standing for alanine aminotransferase, is a blood test used to detect liver damage. The enzyme alanine aminotransferase is mainly found in the liver. This enzyme is used by the body for the breakdown of food and the production of energy. At normal times, ALT is found inside the liver cells. But in case of liver damage or disease, ALT is released into the bloodstream. This results in higher levels of ALT in the blood, which is often the first sign of liver damage. The SGPT (ALT) test is therefore done to determine the levels of ALT in the blood. Cut down on your lab test expenses with PharmEasy. Book SGPT (ALT) test in Guwahati with us and start saving.

The normal range of SGPT / ALT in the blood is generally considered to be less than 35 units per litre of blood. If the results are higher than this, it may suggest the presence of liver damage or disease. However, this range can be affected by a few factors, such as age and gender. Therefore, the result must be specifically discussed with doctors.
