SGOT - Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) Test In Kolkata

SGOT - Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) Test In Kolkata

Starts from 50*

Aspartate aminotransferase (in short AST) is a particular enzyme present in different tissues of our body. The enzyme is broadly defined as a protein that helps activate necessary chemical reactions that our body needs to function.
SGOT is found in the highest concentrations in some of the most vital organs, such as:

  • Liver
  • Muscles
  • Heart
  • Kidney
  • Brain
  • Red Blood Cells

SGOT is typically found in our bloodstream. Tissue damage or internal hemorrhage can cause fluctuations to a small to large extent. A massive dip or sharp spike in the SGOT level could lead to serious health injuries. SGOT test confirms the level of aspartate aminotransferase in our blood, and in case of irregular levels of SGOT, doctors prescribe medicines to mitigate the issues. To diagnose, a SGOT test in Kolkata is generally recommended by doctors.

Why Is the SGOT Test Done?

Typically, SGOT issues are associated with liver damage.

  • Doctors usually use the SGOT test to determine liver conditions, including hepatitis

  • According to liver consultants, uncharacteristic ALT test results are more likely correlated to liver injury than unusual SGOT results

The common symptoms of liver ailments that may cause your health practitioner to order an SGOT test include:

  • Fatigue
  • Weakness
  • Nausea
  • Abdominal pain
  • A loss of appetite
  • Vomiting
  • Dark urine
  • Swelling of your abdomen
  • Severe skin itching, or pruritus

  • Diabetes
  • Exposure to viruses that cause hepatitis
  • Frequent alcohol or drug use
  • Being overweight
  • A family history of liver disease

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
