Extract: Glucuronide conjugation of bilirubin in mammalian liver is catalyzed by the microsomal enzyme uriding phosphoglucuronyltransefrasc (UDPGT). Enzymic activity as measured in vitro is low in ...

In most cases, low bilirubin levels are not a reason for concern. The problem does not cause symptoms. In fact, how low your ...

Conjugation of bilirubin and delivery to the intestine doesn't necessarily lead to excretion of the substance. Neonatal intestines contain beta-glucuronidase, an enzyme capable of reducing ...

Bilirubin is a viscous, brownish-yellow substance that is a natural byproduct of liver processes like breaking down old red blood cells. Normally, it is excreted from the body without cause for ...

Elevations in serum bilirubin during treatment with lapatinib and pazopanib are associated predominantly with UGT1A1*28 and Gilbert's syndrome. Gilbert's syndrome is clinically benign, so isolated ...

You may have some of the following tests. Diagnosing bile duct cancer may begin with a test to measure the amount of bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a chemical that comes from the breakdown of ...

A bilirubin analyser is a device used to measure bilirubin levels and is often used in neonatal intensive units to screen new-borns for jaundice. The analysers either detect bilirubin levels in ...
