<unk>  <unk> , measured as a percentage, is a medical laboratory value. It is the value of serum iron divided by the total iron-binding capacity of the available<unk> , the main protein that binds iron in the blood, this value tells a clinician how much serum iron is bound. For instance, a value of 15% means that 15% of iron-binding sites of<unk>  are being occupied by iron. The three results are usually reported together. A low<unk>  is a common indicator of iron deficiency anemia whereas a high<unk>  may indicate iron overload or hemochromatosis.<unk>  is also called<unk>  index <unk> I) or<unk>  percentage <unk> %) __TOC__
