Total iron binding capacity (TIBC) is a blood test to see if you have too much or too little iron in the blood. Iron moves through the blood attached to a protein called transferrin. This test helps your doctor know how well that protein can carry iron in the blood.
Your doctor may order this test if you have signs or symptoms of low iron (deficiency) due to anemia.
*Reference ranges are provided as general guidance only. To interpret test results use the reference range in the laboratory report.
You may be instructed to fast for 12 hours before the test; in this case, only water is allowed.
