Commonly asked questions
When red blood cells die, they release hemoglobin into the bloodstream, which can lead to health problems if not correctly cleared. The body uses haptoglobin to bind this free hemoglobin and prevent damage.
Hemoglobin-binding protein haptoglobin is measured in blood tests to check for excessive red blood cell destruction or inflammation. Low levels can indicate conditions like hemolytic anemia or liver disease.
