Divide or subtract: transferrin saturation versus unbound iron binding capacity (UIBC)
{{output}}
Transferrin saturation in plasma (P-TSAT) is 100 × P-iron/P-total iron binding capacity (P-TIBC). It is still used to diagnose iron deficiency, although P-ferritin is considered to be a better test. Both tests are sensitive to inflammation: P-TSAT decreases a... ...
