TRANSFERRIN URINE

The urine transferrin test measures the level of transferrin, a protein that binds and transports iron, in a urine sample. Elevated urine transferrin levels can indicate kidney damage, particularly in individuals with diabetes or hypertension. This test is used to diagnose and monitor kidney disease, assess the severity of damage, and guide treatment decisions. The urine transferrin test provides valuable information for managing kidney health, ensuring timely intervention, and preventing complications associated with kidney dysfunction.
