Protein, Body Fluid
Overview
Proteins are essential molecules in your body that carry out multiple functions like building tissues, enzymes, and hormones. Testing protein levels in body fluids aids in assessing your overall health and diagnosing conditions affecting protein metabolism. Protein levels in body fluids (like pleural or synovial fluid) help differentiate fluid types (transudative - low protein, exudative - high protein) to diagnose underlying causes like infection or inflammation.
