LD<\/h2>\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

Lactate dehydrogenase (LD) is an enzyme found in most tissues in the body, which is only present in small amounts in the blood. If the tissues are damaged or destroyed, the enzyme is released from the cells and enters the bloodstream, leading to an increase in blood levels. Five molecular forms of lactate dehydrogenase are known. To determine the total LD level, a joint measurement of the five LD isoenzymes is required.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

What is the purpose of the test?<\/h2>\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

The test helps detect the location and cause of chronic tissue damage and monitor the progress of the process.<\/p>\n

In addition to other tests, it can provide information about the disease causing the cell damage and can help identify the tissues or organs involved.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

In which cases is it recommended to perform the test?<\/h2>\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

If a disease with acute or chronic cell or tissue necrosis is suspected.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

What sample is needed for the test?<\/h2>\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

A blood sample taken from a vein is needed for the test.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
