Protein Electrophoresis, Serum

The serum electrophoresis test is a diagnostic tool used to measure and analyze proteins in the blood. It separates proteins into groups based on their electrical charge and size, identifying abnormal protein levels or patterns. This test is commonly used to diagnose conditions such as multiple myeloma, liver disease, or chronic inflammation. The protein electrophoresis serum test plays a vital role in detecting and monitoring various health conditions.
