Specimens: B, whole blood; P, plasma; S, serum. Reference intervals depend on test method and the demographics of the normal population used. *Adult intervals (18Y-60Y). Age specific ranges apply for pediatric and/or geriatric populations. Source: Burtis CA, Bruns DE. Tietz Fundamentals of Clinical Chemistry and Molecular Diagnostics. 7th ed.
