Iron serum test is used to measure the level of iron in the blood. Iron is essential for making red blood cells (RBCs), healthy muscles and bone marrow. The typical symptoms of iron deficiency may include pale skin, fatigue, headaches, and weakness and signs of iron overload include weakness, joints and abdominal pain. This test is usually advised if someone experiences symptoms of iron deficiency anemia, increased accumulation of iron in the body, and low hemoglobin levels. The iron levels can be too low due to anemia, decreased intake of iron during pregnancy, and lactation. The high levels of iron in the body may indicate a possible case of liver disease and lead poisoning. Most conditions that cause too little or too much iron can be successfully treated with iron supplements, diet, and medicines.
Iron plays a vital role in various physiological processes, including oxygen transport, energy production, and DNA synthesis. Parameters such as serum iron, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), transferrin saturation, and ferritin levels are measured to assess iron status and diagnose conditions such as iron deficiency anemia or iron overload disorders.
Understanding and monitoring the parameters of iron in different contexts are crucial for engineers, scientists, healthcare providers, and researchers to ensure optimal performance, health, and well-being. These parameters provide valuable insights into the characteristics and behavior of iron, enabling appropriate decision-making and interventions in various fields.
