The tests include: Thyroid binding globulin (TBG): This is the specific protein that binds to T4 and T3. T3 resin uptake (T3RU): This calculates the percentage of TBG in the blood. Thyroid blood ...

This limitation can be circumvented by using a very large excess of a non-isotopically labeled T4 tracer with an affinity for thyroid binding proteins comparable to that of T4. Current THBR tests ...
