ASPARTATE AMINOTRANSFERASE (SGOT )

The test measures the level of AST enzyme in the body, which is primarily found in the liver, heart, muscles and other tissues. It is often used alongside the ALT (Alanine Aminotransferase) test to assess liver health and diagnose conditions like hepatitis, liver cirrhosis or liver damage from toxins or alcohol.
