What is UIBC?
Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity (UIBC) measures the portion of transferrin that is not currently carrying iron, representing the "reserve" binding capacity. UIBC = TIBC - Serum Iron. High UIBC indicates more available binding sites, typical of iron deficiency. Low UIBC suggests transferrin is highly saturated with iron, seen in iron overload.
