A few important substances that are routinely analyzed in a clinical laboratory with the aid of an Autoanalyzer are, namely serum-glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) creatine-phophokinase (CPK) alkaline-phosphatase (AP) belonging to the class of enzymes and a host of biochemical substances, for instance bilirubin, serum albumin, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), uric acid, creatinine, total protein, glucose, cholesterol, besides a few common inorganic ions, such as Cl, Ca2+, K+, Na+. 

Following intravenous injection of 0-2.8 pCi/kg (104,000 Bq/kg) thorium-227 in a solution of citric acid-sodium citrate buffer in dogs, an increase in serum alkaline phosphatase measurements and hypoalbuminemia and hyperglobulinemia were observed (Stevens et al. 1967). No effects on the levels of serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) or serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) were found. 

Polybrominated Biphenyls. Results from several studies of humans exposed to PBBs do not demonstrate, in general, a conclusive association between adverse effects on the liver and oral exposure to PBBs. In a study in which serum was collected in 1974, 1977, 1978, and 1979 from 89, 240, 220, and 200 individuals, respectively, who were predominately residents of quarantined Michigan farms, no consistent statistically significant correlations were found betw een serum PBB levels and levels of serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT), serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) or serum bilirubin (Kreiss et al. 

Myocardial infarction occurs when the blood supply to the heart muscle is blocked for an extended time. If this lack of blood supply, called ischemia, is prolonged, the myocardium suffers irreversible cell damage and muscle death, or infarction. When this happens, the concentration of cardiac enzymes in the blood rises dramatically as the dead cells release their contents into the bloodstream. Although many enzymes are liberated, three are of prime importance. These three enzymes, creatine phosphokinase (CPK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and aspartate aminotransferase/serum glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (AST/SGOT), show a characteristic sequential rise in blood serum level following myocardial infarction and then return to normal. This enzyme profile, shown in the ac-... 

Example aminotransferase enzymes include the serum glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (SGOT) and serum glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (SGPT).
