Welche Vorteile bietet dieser Test für mich?
Your liver health in focus – detect potential problems early.
The Liver Check analyzes important liver values such as ALAT and GGT, which provide insights into the function and health of your liver. With this test, you gain clarity on whether your liver is working optimally or if there are potential strains.
Why test now? The liver is one of the central organs for your metabolism and detoxification. Unnoticed problems can negatively affect your health. With the Liver Check, you can react early and actively support your liver health.
Your benefits:
- Targeted analysis: Detailed review of the most important liver values.
- Simple and convenient: Sample collection flexibly from home.
- Clear feedback: Your individual report shows you your values compared to the normal ranges.
Support your liver health – with the liver check from Probatix.
Was bedeuten die gemessenen Werte?
GPT, also called ALT, is an enzyme that occurs almost exclusively in the liver. When liver cells are damaged, it enters the blood and the level rises.
An elevated GPT level is therefore a sensitive indicator of liver diseases such as hepatitis or fatty liver. Normal values indicate a healthy liver.
Bilirubin, total
Bilirubin is produced during the breakdown of the red blood pigment hemoglobin and is further processed in the liver. It enters the intestine via the bile and is eventually excreted. The total bilirubin level in the blood indicates how well this breakdown and excretion process is functioning.
Slightly elevated levels can be harmless, such as in the case of Gilbert's syndrome. However, significantly elevated levels can indicate liver or bile duct diseases and often lead to a yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice).
Gamma-GT (G-GT)
GGT is an enzyme that is primarily found in the liver and bile ducts. It is released into the blood when these organs are damaged or stressed. Therefore, GGT is an important marker for liver health.
Elevated levels may indicate alcohol abuse, liver inflammation, bile obstruction, or certain medications. Normal levels usually indicate intact liver function.
Albumin
Albumin is the most common protein in blood plasma and is produced in the liver. It retains fluid in the vascular system and transports vitamins, enzymes, and hormones.
A deficiency may be caused by liver or kidney diseases, inflammation, or poor protein supply. High albumin levels occur with fluid loss or a very high-protein diet. Since albumin also reflects the nutritional situation, persistently low levels indicate insufficient protein intake and an increased risk of muscle weakness or infections.
Warum ist dieser Test wichtig?
The Liver Profile is essential for monitoring your liver's health and ensuring it is functioning optimally.
- Liver Function: Review of key values (albumin, bilirubin, GPT) to detect potential liver cell damage early.
- Bile Duct Function: GGT and bilirubin provide insights into the function of the liver and bile ducts.
- Bile Flow && Metabolism: Values such as GGT and calcium related to bone metabolism indicate whether bile flow and metabolism are balanced.
Anwendung & Ablauf des Tests
The Liver Profile is particularly useful if the following symptoms or risk factors are present:
- Constant fatigue or exhaustion
- Yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice)
- Dark urine or light-colored stool
- Pain or pressure in the right upper abdomen
- Nausea, vomiting, or loss of appetite
- Abdominal swelling or digestive problems
- Regular alcohol consumption
- Prolonged use of medications that can burden the liver
Important: If there are noticeable symptoms or risk factors, you should discuss your values with a doctor to clarify possible causes and initiate targeted measures.

Warum ist dieser Test wichtig?
1. What does the Liver Profile measure?
The Liver Profile measures key values such as albumin (serum), bilirubin (total), GGT (Gamma-GT), and GPT (ALT, ALAT). These markers provide important insights into the function and stress of your liver.
2. Who is the Liver Profile suitable for?
The test is suitable for individuals who want to monitor their liver function – especially with risk factors such as regular alcohol consumption, frequent medication use, metabolic disorders, or existing liver diseases.
3. What symptoms may indicate impaired liver function?
Typical signs include fatigue, yellowing of the skin or eyes, nausea, digestive problems, or pain in the upper right abdomen. In the presence of such symptoms, checking liver values is advisable.
4.How is the liver profile conducted?
The procedure is simple: You take a small blood sample conveniently from home and send it to our specialized laboratory, where your values are professionally analyzed.
5. How long does it take to receive my results?
The results are usually available within a few days in your personal Probatix dashboard.
6. What can I do if my liver values are abnormal?
If the values are abnormal, you should discuss the results with a doctor. This way, causes such as fatty liver, liver inflammation, or bile duct problems can be clarified and appropriate measures initiated.
