Indigo green test

The liver is one of the important excretory organs of the human body. Many endogenous substances such as bile acids, bilirubin, cholesterol, etc., as well as exogenous substances such as drugs, poisons, dyes, etc., can be metabolized in the liver after proper metabolism Hepatocytes are excreted into the bile. When liver cells are damaged, the excretion function of the above substances is reduced. Based on this, synthetic pigments can be given exogenously, and the ability of the liver to clear and excrete can be measured as one of the liver function test items.
