Iron is a mineral that comes from a balanced diet. It is needed to make red blood cells and is an important part of hemoglobin. Once iron enters the body, it moves throughout the bloodstream by a protein called transferrin. Transferrin is a direct measure of the iron binding capacity. This test measures transferrin levels to identify iron deficiency anemia and helps distinguish it from anemia caused by chronic illness or inflammation.
