Ranges
Each lab publishes a reference range for the population groups it tests, usually the middle 95% of results. These intervals describe that population, not an optimal or healthy target. How ranges differ
Quest Diagnostics, Gastrin 478
| Population | Interval |
|---|---|
| Reference range applies to fasting specimen only, <5 years | Not established |
| Reference range applies to fasting specimen only, 5-17 years | <65 pg/mL |
| Reference range applies to fasting specimen only, ≥18 years | ≤100 pg/mL |
Tests
Check the catalog code, specimen, method and preparation for every test that measures Gastrin. Select up to five tests to compare them side by side.

Gastrin 004390
Serum · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 2 - 4 days
Labcorp catalog pageMethod and collection
- Method
- Immunochemiluminometric assay (ICMA)
- Preparation
- The patient must be fasting overnight, 12 to 14 hours.
- Collection
- Separate serum from cells. Transfer the serum into a LabCorp PP transpak frozen purple tube with screw cap (LabCorp N° 49482). Freeze immediately and maintain frozen until tested. To avoid delays in turnaround time when requesting multiple tests on frozen samples, please submit separate frozen specimens for each test requested.

Quest Diagnostics catalog pageMethod and collection
- Method
- Immunoassay (IA)
- Preparation
- Overnight fasting is required, preferably 12 hours or more.
- Collection
- Dietary supplements containing biotin may interfere in assays and may skew analyte results to be either falsely high or falsely low. For patients receiving the recommended daily doses of biotin, draw samples at least 8 hours following the last biotin supplementation. For patients on mega-doses of biotin supplements, draw samples at least 72 hours following the last biotin supplementation.

Verify these ranges and sources
We compile this page from named laboratory catalogs, guidelines and studies. Labs calculate reference intervals from the people they test, for one assay method and one population group, so an interval describes that population rather than an optimal target.
