- Reference notes
- • IgG κ (g/L): 4.03−9.78 • IgG λ (g/L): 1.97−5.71 • IgG κ:IgG λ ratio: 0.98−2.75 An elevated IgG heavy and light chain (HLC) pair ratio suggests a clonal proliferation of an IgG κ clone of plasma cells. A low IgG HLC pair ratio suggests a clonal proliferation of an IgG λ clone of plasma cells.

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.
