The Serum Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) Kit is primarily used in clinical diagnostics to assess iron metabolism and related disorders. It measures the total capacity of serum to bind iron, which helps in evaluating conditions such as iron deficiency anemia, hemochromatosis, and chronic diseases affecting iron levels.

In medical practice, TIBC is often performed alongside serum iron and ferritin tests to provide a comprehensive picture of a patient’s iron status. Elevated TIBC levels typically indicate iron deficiency, while low TIBC levels may suggest iron overload or chronic inflammation. This test is crucial for diagnosing and monitoring treatment effectiveness in patients with iron-related disorders.

Additionally, the kit is utilized in research settings to study iron homeostasis and its role in various physiological and pathological processes. Its accuracy and reliability make it a valuable tool for both clinical and laboratory applications.
