% Transferrin Saturation
Description
Transferrin Saturation (%) calculates the percentage of the protein transferrin that is actually bound to iron in your bloodstream. It determines how much iron is available for use, helping to identify both iron deficiency and iron overload.
Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity (UIBC)
Description
Unsaturated Iron-Binding Capacity (UIBC) measures the portion of transferrin protein that is not yet saturated with iron, representing your blood's "reserve" capacity to bind more. A high UIBC typically indicates iron deficiency, as there are many empty "seats" available for iron to occupy.
