SGOT (AST)
SGOT (AST) is a clinical biomarker on the Liver panel, reported in U/L. Standard reference range: Male 10–40 · Female 10–35 U/L. Functional (optimal) range used by integrative practitioners: Male 15–26 · Female 15–24 U/L.
What is SGOT (AST)?
AST (aspartate aminotransferase) is a transaminase found in hepatocytes, cardiac muscle, and skeletal muscle; elevation reflects hepatocellular injury or muscle damage.
Reference ranges
| Range type | Value (U/L) | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Standard (lab) | Male 10–40 · Female 10–35 | Typical Quest / LabCorp adult reference |
| Functional (optimal) | Male 15–26 · Female 15–24 | Integrative / functional medicine consensus |
How SomaVue interprets SGOT (AST)
SomaVue maps every result for SGOT (AST) against four clinical lenses — nutrient cofactors, toxin exposure, infection drivers, and circadian/hormonal context — and connects each interpretation to specific peer-reviewed citations. Pre-mapped clinical reasoning and cross-marker pattern detection are available inside the practitioner workspace.
