Figure Lengend Snippet: Receiver operator curve (ROC) plots for sTfR_f, sTfR, TIBC, and per_SAT values for different ferritin cut-offs in Group 2 and 3 (cases). Log_ferritin- Logarithmic value of serum ferritin level, sTFR - serum transferrin levels, sTFRlog_f - ration of sTFR to log ferritin S Iron - Serum iron concentration, TIBC - Total iron binding capacity, per_SAT - Percentage saturation
Article Snippet: Serum iron (iron-ferrozine method), serum ferritin (ELISA assay, Calbiotech, Austin Drive, Spring valley, California, USA), total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), and serum transferrin receptor (sTfR) levels (Human sTfR ELISA, BioVendor Laboratory Medicine, Czech Republic) were estimated on the stored samples.
Techniques: Concentration Assay, Binding Assay
