PHYSIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE Bilirubin is a metabolite of haem, derived from haem-containing proteins, including myoglobin, haemoglobin and various P450 enzymes, that serves to coordinate iron in various proteins. Half of it is excreted into bile and the rest contributes to blood bilirubin turnover 1. It is mainly produced in the spleen and liver but can also occur elsewhere in the body by macrophages and renal tubular cells 2. The internal hydrogen bonding causes it to be water-insoluble and so required enzyme-mediated glucuronidation in the liver for biliary excretion. Under normal conditions, it is mostly unconjugated and bound tightly to albumin CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Bilirubin is one of the most common diagnostic tests utilised in the diagnosis and monitoring of hepatic dysfunction. It is impaired in cholestatic and parenchymal liver diseases. The most common condition associated with elevated levels is jaundice (a clinical sign of hyperbilirubinaemia),
