Abstract
In general, Tests for liver function in the laboratory are those that help diagnose and treat patients with hepatic dysfunction. The liver is responsible for the metabolism of fats., proteins, and carbohydrates. As biochemical markers of liver dysfunction, a few end products of metabolic pathways and enzymes that are extremely sensitive to abnormalities could be employed. Serum bilirubin, Ceruloplasmin, α-fetoprotein, alkaline phosphatase, 5′ nucleotidase, aspartate amino transferase, alanine amino transferase, and gamma glutamyl transferase are a few of the biological. If a patient has one or more changes in the biochemical markers of liver damage, physicians may have trouble detecting diseases that directly affect the liver or include other organs. The phrase "liver chemistry tests," which refers to a variety of serum chemistries that can be examined to assess hepatic function and/or damage, is often used but is not well defined.
