Product Description:

• mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-font-kerning:0pt;mso-ligatures:
  none">Self-test for the detection of ferritin levels in whole blood
  samples.

• mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-font-kerning:0pt;mso-ligatures:
  none">Iron is an essential metal for our bodies and is crucial for
  transporting oxygen in the blood, for cell multiplication and to build the
  structure of tissues and organs. However, in excessively high levels it is
  toxic for the body.


• mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-font-kerning:0pt;mso-ligatures:
  none">For this reason, every one of us has a system for taking up iron
  from the external environment (e.g. via a diet rich in iron-containing
  foods) and storing it in cells in a way that is not excessive (and
  therefore not toxic).


• mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-font-kerning:0pt;mso-ligatures:
  none">Ferritin is the protein responsible for this storage function. The
  level of ferritin is an excellent indicator of the amount of iron
  available to the body.


• mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-font-kerning:0pt;mso-ligatures:
  none">Low levels of this protein in the blood are an indication of
  depleted iron stores, a condition that precedes the development of
  anemia. A decrease can be caused by pregnancy, hemorrhages, alterations
  in iron uptake.
