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

Labcorp 8 tests

Single-analyte tests

  • Gastrin 004390

    Serum · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 2 - 4 days

    Method 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 1 test

Single-analyte tests

  • Gastrin 478

    Serum · Fasting required · Turnaround Set up: Mon, Wed, Fri

    Method 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.

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.
