LDH – LACTATE DEHYDROGENASE

This test detects Lactate dehydrogenase levels in serum. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH or LD) is an enzyme that is found in almost all body tissues, but only a small amount of it is usually detectable in the blood. Contained within the tissues’ cells, LDH is released into the bloodstream when cells are damaged or destroyed. Because of this, the LDH test can be used as a general marker of injury to cells. Elevations of LDH may be measured either as a total LDH or as LDH isoenzymes. A total LDH level is an overall measurement of five different LDH isoenzymes. Isoenzymes are slightly different molecular versions of the LDH enzyme. A total LDH level will reflect the presence of tissue damage,
but it is not specific
