Physiological Reference Ranges

The ranges below represent standard adult physiological values. Your laboratory's printed reference range always takes precedence.

Adults (general)

8 – 15 g/L

Adult females

8 – 15 g/L

Adult males

8 – 15 g/L

Common alternative units:
g/dL(×10 g/L)
%(×0.7 g/L)

What does a low result mean?

A slightly lower level can reflect modest antibody output, frequently without practical clinical consequence.

What does a high result mean?

A balanced (polyclonal) rise is very common, illustrating robust immune memory accumulated against past bugs.

Questions ready for your doctor

Bring these questions to your next consultation to discuss with your healthcare practitioner:

  • Is the electrophoretic pattern balanced and reassuring?
  • Would fractionating specific antibody classes (IgG, IgA, IgM) be helpful?
  • Is routine follow-up appropriate?
