Total Protein and Albumin/Globulin (A/G) Ratio
The Total Protein and Albumin/Globulin (A/G) Ratio is a critical laboratory test measuring the protein levels in the blood. It evaluates the proportions of albumin and globulin, essential proteins produced by the liver and immune system, respectively. Abnormal A/G ratios can indicate liver disease, kidney dysfunction, or chronic infections.
