The Protein Electrophoresis test separates specific proteins in your blood based on their electrical charge to measure their levels. This test evaluates vital proteins, such as albumin, which aids in transporting molecules and maintaining fluid balance, and globulins, which are split into alpha-1, alpha-2, beta, and gamma fractions. Elevated levels of alpha and gamma globulins can suggest inflammation. Additionally, Protein Electrophoresis is helpful in diagnosing various conditions, including thyroid disorders, diabetes, anaemia, liver diseases, malnutrition, and autoimmune diseases. It also plays a role in diagnosing plasma cell disorders like Waldenström macroglobulinemia, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), and primary amyloidosis.

Best Time to Get Tested: The test can be taken at any time of the day unless otherwise advised by a doctor. When Recommended: To be conducted as per the doctor’s prescription. Cautions: No specific precautions are required before the test.

Separates and identifies proteins in blood, useful in diagnosing multiple myeloma and other plasma cell disorders.
