Here’s an easy way to find out your AST:ALT ratio: divide your AST level as shown on your blood test results by your ALT level. For example, if your AST is 20 U/L and your ALT is 18 U/L, then your ALT ratio would be 1.05, which is within the normal...
A normal AST/ALT ratio should be around 1.15 in healthy adults, with slightly more AST than ALT in blood levels. Levels above this 'normal' can reveal information about liver damage and the possible causes. What does the test for AST and ALT measure? A test for AST and ALT measures the...
In healthy individuals, levels of AST in the blood are very low. If levels are very high, this usually indicates acute hepatitis; with treatment, the levels should decrease but they will remain higher than usual for around 2 months.
Blood levels of AST that are higher than normal are used to predict the possibility of liver injury. Conditions in which AST levels are increased include alcohol-induced liver injury, cirrhosis, exercise, myopathy, hemolysis, and thyroid disease.[1][2] References ^Lala V, Zubair M, Minter DA...

The aspartate aminotransferase (AST) test is a blood test that looks for liver damage by checking the levels of aspartate aminotransferase (also known as aspartate transferase) in your blood. Your doctor might order this test to find out if you have liver disease or to monitor your treatment ...

Also known asserum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase(SGOT), AST is an enzyme that is normally present in liver and heart cells. AST is released into blood when the liver or heart is damaged. The blood AST levels are thus elevated with liver damage (for example, from viralhepatitis) or with...
Because AST levels in the blood can rise when cells are damaged, elevated AST can reflect health conditions, including liver diseases like cirrhosis or hepatitis. To determine the cause of an abnormal result, the doctor may consider how high the AST level is and how it compares to the levels...
