What this test measures

7 parameters in the Protein Electrophoresis

The Protein Electrophoresis reports the following parameters. These are this lab’s own reference ranges: the same ones your result is reported against, not a generic table. Adult values are shown; where a range differs by age, the range for your age is applied automatically when the result is released. Always read results with your doctor.

Understanding your results

What high or low results may mean

For the 2 parameters below, here is what a value outside the reference range may be associated with. These are general, textbook associations: a result outside the range is not a diagnosis on its own.

Your liver

The organ that processes what you eat and drink, filters your blood and makes proteins. These markers are enzymes and pigments that rise when it is working hard or under strain.

ParameterIf higher than rangeIf lower than range
Total ProteinA high total protein may be seen with dehydration or with certain chronic conditions.A low total protein may relate to nutrition, the liver, or the kidneys.
Albumin (Electrophoresis)A high albumin is most often due to dehydration.A low albumin may relate to nutrition, chronic illness, or the liver or kidneys.

Reference ranges vary by laboratory, age, sex and method, and results must be interpreted together and in the context of your health. This information is educational and is not a diagnosis or medical advice, always discuss your report with your doctor.
