LDH – LACTATE DEHYDROGENASE TOTAL ( LDH)

Within the scope of Hypro Diagnostics, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) emerges as a pivotal enzyme crucial for cellular respiration—the transformative process that converts dietary glucose into cellular energy. As a protein catalyst, LDH plays a central role in expediting diverse chemical reactions responsible for both the synthesis and breakdown of substances in the body. Widely distributed across tissues, with notable concentrations in muscles, liver, kidneys, and red blood cells, LDH is indispensable for fundamental physiological functions. The continuous turnover of cells in tissues leads to the release of LDH into the bloodstream or other bodily fluids, constituting a normal biological occurrence. Consequently, the routine detection of LDH in blood or fluid samples at Hypro Diagnostics serves as a valuable component in comprehending cellular metabolism and overall health.
