Laboratory assay overview

Evaluate zinc exposure; evaluate low serum zinc levels; evaluate compliance in oral zinc therapy of Wilson disease.2 Low urine zinc levels in the presence of depressed serum zinc tends to confirm zinc deficiency.

We compile every detail above directly from named laboratory directories and published clinical studies. Laboratories calculate standard reference intervals from the statistical distribution of tested populations for a specific assay method and demographic group, rather than setting universal optimal targets.
