About Immunofixation Electrophoresis Serum Test

Why is the Immunofixation Electrophoresis Serum Test done?

Proteins are essential components of the body. They aid with the building and functioning of cells and tissues. Proteins are also essential in helping maintain the structure of organs and creating enzymes that aid with major body functions. The immunofixation electrophoresis near me is done by separating the proteins from each other on the basis of their size. This helps with understanding if any protein is absent or made in abnormally high or abnormally low levels.

The main proteins formed in the body are albumin and globulin. The globulin is further divided into four subgroups. These are:

  • Alpha 1 globulin
  • Alpha 2 globulin
  • Beta globulin
  • Gamma globulin

Albumin is mainly produced by the liver. Barring come immunoglobulins, most of the globulins are produced by the liver. When the levels are abnormal or if certain proteins are missing, the patient develops symptoms that can indicate certain diseases. These symptoms are:

  • Frequently suffering from infections
  • Nausea
  • Feeling dehydrated
  • Anemia
  • Fatigue
  • No control over urination
  • Vertigo and dizziness
  • Bone and joint pain
  • Weight loss
What does the Immunofixation Electrophoresis Serum Test measure?

The process by which the immunofixation electrophoresis is conducted enables the protein particles to be removed via the process of creating a vacuum. Once the proteins are isolated, these proteins are stained with antibodies and projected on a band.

The band is seen in valleys and peaks and help doctors identify the disease. Both high and low levels are harmful for people.

High levels indicate:

  • Dehydration
  • Liver diseases
  • Multiple myeloma
  • Lymphoma
  • High cholesterol
  • Inflammatory diseases
  • Kidney diseases

Low levels indicate:

  • Genetic disorders like Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency
  • Malnutrition
  • Chronic inflammatory disease
  • High cholesterol levels in blood
Potential risks/side effects associated with the Immunofixation Electrophoresis Serum Test

The test poses no serious risks or side effects. Usually, the process of blood collection is done by experienced phlebotomists and they know how to make the process of venipuncture as painless as possible.

Ms Sujata arrived on time and was very polite and caring throughout the process. Actually there was a mistake on my part where I couldn't attend her calls because I was not well and i feel asleep bcoz of my medicines. I had scheduled an appointment for my mother but Ms Sujata somehow reached my address by asking my neighbours. Such a lovely girl, and also the collection process was really smooth. Would absolutely recommend everyone to check out their services
