LD Isoenzyme 5 details
Description
LD isoenzyme 5 is a specific form of lactate dehydrogenase found predominantly in the liver and skeletal muscle. It's one of five LD isoenzymes that can be separated out when a more detailed breakdown of an elevated total LDH is needed, and an elevation concentrated in this fraction can point toward a liver or skeletal muscle source specifically, though more targeted liver and muscle tests are typically used today rather than isoenzyme fractionation alone.
