Indicator Explainer
Aluminum
A metallic element in the boron group with atomic symbol Al, atomic number 13, and atomic weight 27.
This page explains what the indicator is and how results are interpreted in general terms. Reference ranges depend on the laboratory, the method, and your own situation — no single “normal value” applies to everyone. This page is health information, not a diagnosis. For symptoms, treatment, or urgent concerns, contact a healthcare professional.
