Special Instructions

This test may exhibit interference when sample is collected from a person who is consuming a supplement with a high dose of biotin (also termed as vitamin B7 or B8, vitamin H, or coenzyme R). It is recommended to ask all patients who may be indicated for this test about biotin supplementation.

Expected Turnaround Time

Turnaround time is defined as the usual number of days from the date of pickup of a specimen for testing to when the result is released to the ordering provider. In some cases, additional time should be allowed for additional confirmatory or additional reflex tests. Testing schedules may vary.

Collection

Separate serum from cells, and transfer specimen to a plastic transport tube.

Limitations

Thyroglobulin antibody results should be interpreted in light of the total clinical presentation of the patient, including symptoms, clinical history, data from additional tests, and other appropriate information.

Additional Information

The United States NHANES III survey reported a TgAb prevalence of approximately 10% for the general population, measured by competitive immunoassay. 1 This study reported that 3% of subjects with no risk factors for thyroid disease had detectable TgAb without associated presence of thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies.

What is thyroglobulin antibody?

Thyroglobulin (Tg) measurement is intended to aid in monitoring for the presence of orthotropic and/or metastatic thyroid tissues in patients who have had thyroid gland ablation ( using thyroid surgery with or without radioactivity). Measurement of thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) is used to identify patient samples that may be affected by TgAb ...

What is TSH in pregnancy?

The degree of TSH-receptor stimulation from endogenous TSH, recombinant human TSH (rhTSH), human chorionic gonadotropin (during pregnancy) or antibodies that stimulate the TSH receptor (Graves' disease). Measurement of serum Tg is used primarily in the postoperative management and long-term surveillance of patients with DTC.

What is the precursor protein for thyroid hormone biosynthesis?

Thyroglobulin (Tg) is synthesized exclusively by thyroid follicular cells as the precursor protein for thyroid hormone biosynthesis. 1,4,5 The serum Tg reflects the integrated sum of Tg released into the blood stream and is related to three factors:
