Liver Function Tests
Function tests are the tests carried out to assess whether a particular organ is functioning normally or not.
Liver function tests (LFTs) are a group of tests that help in diagnosis, assessing prognosis and monitoring therapy
Liver function tests can be classified into five classes according to the function of the liver.
1. Tests based on excretory function
Serum bilirubin
Urine bilirubin
Urine bile salts
Bromosulphophthalein (BSP) dye tests.

2. Tests based on detoxification function
Blood ammonia and bilirubin
Hippuric acid test.

3. Tests based on synthetic function
Plasma proteins, albumins and globulins
Prothrombin time

4. Tests based on metabolic function
Galactose tolerance test.
Determination of serum cholesterol and ratio of free to esterified cholesterol.
Serum protein estimation
Serum ammonia estimation

5. Determination of serum enzymes
Serum alanine transaminase (ALT)
Serum aspartate transaminase (AST)
Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP)

Special tests (Tests for metabolic liver disease)
i. Ceruloplasmin
ii. Ferritin and iron
iii. Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT)
iv. Beta-2 microglobulin (b2M)
v. Alpha fetoprotein (AFP)
