About TIBC Testing

Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) Testing is a diagnostic test that measures the capacity of proteins in the blood to bind and transport iron. TIBC is used in conjunction with other iron tests to assess iron status and identify conditions like iron deficiency anemia or iron overload.
