Book your SGPT (ALT) Test at an NABL and NABH-accredited lab, Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, which is an advanced Pathology and Radiology centre. This blood test shows the level of Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT) or Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) enzyme in the blood that is produced mainly by the liver. Advanced biochemistry technology is used in our advanced lab to deliver accurate reporting of results for proper diagnosis and the subsequent treatment plan.
About SGPT (ALT) Test
SGPT Test is an examination to check the ALT enzyme in the blood. ALT increases if liver cell damage and inflammation occur, releasing the enzyme into the blood. Advanced laboratory systems ensure accurate liver enzyme assessment at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy.
What is an SGPT Test?
SGPT (ALT) Test, also known as a blood ALT test, is a blood examination that is used to check liver function and identify liver cell damage. It is usually done with other liver enzymes and proteins in a Liver Function Test (LFT).
Common Reasons for SGPT Test
Routine liver health assessment
Suspected liver disease
Monitoring hepatitis
Evaluation of fatty liver
Monitoring certain medications
Unexplained fatigue or weakness
Jaundice or abdominal discomfort
Follow-up of abnormal liver tests
Conditions Evaluated
Fatty Liver
Helps assess liver enzyme changes associated with fatty liver disease.
Hepatitis
Supports evaluation and monitoring of liver inflammation caused by viral or other forms of hepatitis.
Liver Injury
Helps identify liver cell damage when ALT levels are elevated.
Alcohol-Related Liver Disease
May help evaluate liver injury associated with excessive alcohol consumption.
Medication-Related Liver Injury
Can help monitor liver enzymes in patients taking medicines that may affect the liver.
Who Should Consider This Test?
Your doctor may recommend an SGPT Test if you:
Have suspected liver problems
Have abnormal liver function results
Have hepatitis or fatty liver
Experience jaundice or unexplained fatigue
Take medicines requiring liver monitoring
Need routine liver health evaluation

Book Your SGPT (ALT) Test
Book your SGPT (ALT) test at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy. Our laboratory staff ensures reliable liver enzyme testing and reporting to allow physicians to assess liver function and determine the proper treatment.
Test information: Fasting not necessary, but preferred
Reporting: Within 6 hours*
Fasting is usually not required for the SGPT (ALT) test unless advised by your doctor or required as part of a larger test panel.
A blood sample will be collected from a vein in your arm.
Inform your doctor about any liver disease, hepatitis, fatty liver, or other liver-related condition you may have.
Tell your doctor about all medicines, supplements, and herbal products you are taking.
Avoid alcohol before the test if advised by your doctor, as alcohol consumption may affect liver enzyme levels.
If available, bring previous Liver Function Test (LFT) or liver enzyme reports for comparison.
Follow any specific instructions provided by your doctor or laboratory.
SGPT (ALT) Test के लिए आमतौर पर fasting की आवश्यकता नहीं होती है, जब तक डॉक्टर सलाह न दें या यह किसी बड़े test panel का हिस्सा न हो।
जांच के लिए बांह की नस से Blood Sample लिया जाएगा।
यदि आपको Liver Disease, Hepatitis, Fatty Liver या अन्य Liver-related Condition है, तो डॉक्टर को बताएं।
आप जो भी Medicines, Supplements या Herbal Products ले रहे हैं, उनकी जानकारी दें।
यदि डॉक्टर सलाह दें, तो जांच से पहले alcohol का सेवन न करें, क्योंकि इससे liver enzyme levels प्रभावित हो सकते हैं।
उपलब्ध होने पर पिछली Liver Function Test (LFT) या Liver Enzyme Reports साथ लेकर आएं।
डॉक्टर या laboratory द्वारा दिए गए विशेष निर्देशों का पालन करें।
The patient is registered, and test details are verified.
A trained laboratory professional collects a blood sample from a vein.
The sample is placed in an appropriate tube, labelled correctly, and sent to the laboratory.
Serum is separated from the blood sample for biochemical analysis.
The laboratory measures SGPT (ALT) activity using an appropriate clinical biochemistry method.
The result may be interpreted along with AST, ALP, GGT, bilirubin, and other liver-function tests.
Required laboratory quality checks are completed before reporting.
The result is reviewed and verified by the laboratory team.
Blood collection generally takes only a few minutes.
The procedure is simple and minimally invasive.
Reporting is generally available within 04 hours.
