Bilirubin
Bilirubin is a yellow compound generated during the normal breakdown of red blood cells. It is processed by the liver and excreted through bile. Elevated bilirubin levels can indicate liver dysfunction, jaundice, or other medical conditions. Monitoring bilirubin levels is important for diagnosing and managing liver diseases effectively.
