normal range for ALT (SGPT)aubciejm Jul 07, 2011 I just found this at Medicine net. The normal range of values for AST (SGOT) is from 5 to 40 units per liter of serum (the liquid part of the blood). The normal range of values for ALT (SGPT) is from 7 to 56 units per liter of serum. Those aren't the same as Quest but they're in the ball park. I know different labs have different reference range but an AST range of of 14 - 20 seems very narrow.

"New ""normal"" ranges for ALT??mremeet May 26, 2009" Labs seem to report slightly different Normal ranges. The normal range on my lab report for ALT reads <35 so yours at 28 would seem normal .My Ast refereance range reads 5 - 31..so again ..looks like you are doing great ..at least according to my lab .

Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) (SGPT) (GPT) (Liver Function) Blood Test Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) (SGPT) (GPT) (Liver Function) Blood Test. The ALT level is tested to look for and evaluate damage to the liver. This test measures the amount of an enzyme called glutamate pyruvate transaminase (GPT) in your blood. This enzyme is found in many body tissues in small amounts, but it is very concentrated in the liver.

- The blood tests most frequently used for liver disease are the aminotransferases (alanine aminotransferase or ALT and aspartate aminotransferase or AST). Normal levels of ALT ranges from about 7-56 units/liter, and 10-40units/liters for AST. Elevated levels of AST and ALT may signify the level of liver damage in a person. heart failure.

- Normal Levels. The normal range for SGOT in the blood for an adult is 6- 34 IU/L for women and 8/40 IU/L for men. Higher levels than this indicate that something is wrong somewhere, frequently in the liver.n addition to the liver, SGOT is also found in the heart, kidneys, skeletal muscles, and brain. The normal range for SGOT in the blood for an adult is 6- 34 IU/L for women and 8/40 IU/L for men.

What is normal liver count? I just got my liver enzymes tested and they came back high here are the normal numbers they should be depending on the test being preformed. SGOT (Serum Glutamic-Oxalocetic Transaminase - AST) Serum Glutamic Oxalocetic Transaminase or AST is an enzyme found primarily in the liver, heart, kidney, pancreas, and muscles. Seen in tissue damage, especially heart and liver, this enzyme is normally elevated.

SGOT and SGPT: What's Normal and What's Not? The two aminotransferases that are checked are the alanine aminotransferase (ALT or SGPT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST or SGOT). These liver enzymes form a major constituent of the liver cells. They are present in lesser concentration in the muscle cells.

Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT)  [en EspaÃ±ol] ALT was formerly called serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT). ALT is measured to see if the liver is damaged or diseased. Low levels of ALT are normally found in the blood. But when the liver is damaged or diseased, it releases ALT into the bloodstream, which makes ALT levels go up.

Liver Blood Tests (Normal, Low, and High Ranges & Results) They include aspartate aminotransferase (AST or SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT or SGPT). These enzymes are normally predominantly contained within liver cells and to a lesser degree in the muscle cells.

Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) (SGPT) (GPT) (Liver Function) Blood Test It is released into the blood when cells that contain it are damaged. A liver function test, ALT is more sensitive for the detection of hepatocyte injury than for biliary obstruction. ALT is more specific for liver injury than AST (SGOT). Useful for hepatic cirrhosis, other liver disease.

High ALT levels in fatty liver and Elevated ALT levels The normal level of ALT in the bloodstream is 5 to 45 U/L (units per liter). This range can slightly vary depending where you take the blood test. When a blood test shows elevated ALT levels outside the normal range, even a small amount, fatty liver and other liver disorders might be the cause. If the cause of the ALT enzyme level increase is due to a severe liver disease (like Cirrhosis), the levels would be higher than what’s found in fatty livers patients.

Elevated transaminases Cirrhosis of the liver or fulminant liver failure secondary to hepatitis commonly reach values for both ALT and AST in the >1000+ U/L range. Elevated transaminases that persist less than six months are termed 'acute' in nature, and those values that persist for six months or more are termed 'chronic' in nature.

Liver Blood Tests (Normal, Low, and High Ranges & Results) While the presence of both of these enzymes in the bloodstream indicate that the liver is damaged, the liver can still function properly. Normal levels of SGOT is approximately 5 to 40 units per liter of serum whereas normal levels of SGPT is approximately 7 to 56 units per liter of serum.

Liver test sgot/ast Your blood study results compared to normal lab values are as follows: Liver Profile. AST (Aspartate)- 157 - Normal Value = 7-27. ALT (Alanine)- 99 - Normal Value = 1-21. BIL- 1.7 - Normal Value= up to 1.0mg/dl. Liver Profile Comment: These Liver Profile Results are considered to be  high out of range.

What are normal liver enzymes.? High AST levels in the bloodstream can be a sign of liver trouble. The normal range of values for ALT (SGPT) is from 7 to 56 units per liter of serum. AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) are sensitive indicators of liver damage or injury from different types of disease.

Liver function INTERPRETATION. 1  ALT and AST are abundant liver enzymes. AST is also present in heart, muscle. 2  ALT and AST normal ranges vary depending on lab, in general: ≤ 40 U/L. 3  Mild ALT and AST elevations (ALT and AST less than 5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)) should be rechecked before extensive work-up is undertaken.

Liver Blood Tests Normal levels of AST and ALT may slightly vary depending on the individual laboratory's reference values. Typically the range for normal AST is reported between 10 to 40 units per liter and ALT between 7 to 56 units per liter. Mild elevations are generally considered to be 2-3 times higher than the normal range.

"New ""normal"" ranges for ALT??mremeet May 26, 2009" I have trouble believing that 30 will be the new low normal for ALT in men. The reference range on my Quest Diagnostics report is 9 - 60 U/L and I have thought that 60 might be too high for the reference range.

What Is the Normal Range for Liver Enzymes? The normal level of liver enzymes for adult men are 7 to 55 units per liter of alanine aminotransferase, or ALT, and 8 to 48 units per liter of aspartate aminotransferase, or AST, notes Mayo Clinic. Normal alkaline phosphatase, or ALP, levels fall between 45 and 115 units per liter.

Elevated Liver Enzymes In order to check for elevated levels your doctor will likely test for increased amounts of two specific liver enzymes: aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), whose normal ranges are: 1  AST = 5 to 40 units per liter of serum.  ALT = 7 to 56 units per liter of serum.

What is normal liver count? Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase or ALT is an enzyme found primarily in the liver but also to a lesser degree, the heart and other tissues. It is useful in diagnosing liver function more so than SGOT levels. Decreased SGPT in combination with increased cholesterol levels is seen in cases of a congested liver.

Blood tests for liver function ALT (alanine aminotransferase), which was previously called SGPT, is more specific for liver damage. The normal range of ALT is 0 to 45 U/L. ALP (alkaline phosphatase) is elevated in many types of liver disease, but also in non-liver related diseases. The normal range of ALP is 30 to 120 U/L.

Liver Blood Tests (Normal, Low, and High Ranges & Results) AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) are reasonably sensitive indicators of liver damage or injury from different types of diseases or conditions. However, it must be emphasized that higher-than-normal levels of these liver enzymes should not be automatically equated with liver disease. They may mean liver problems or they may not. For example, elevations of these enzymes can occur with muscle damage.
