Thyroxine (T4) is synthesized in the thyroid gland. T4 is metabolized to triiodothyronine (T3) peripherally by deiodination. T4 is considered a reservoir or prohormone for T3, the biologically most active thyroid hormone.

Specimen: Serum

Reference Values: 60-161 nmol/L

Method: CLIA

The avidity determination is a diagnostic method which is used to differentiate a recent (acute) and a more distant (past) infection with Toxoplasma gondii in patient sera. Avidity is the binding force of the antibody (serum specimen) with the corresponding antigen.

Specimen: Serum

Reference Values:

>30%: High (Past Infection)
20-30%: Equivocal
<20% Low (Acute Infection)

Method:

Loinc: 56990-5
