About the SGOT (AST) Test
The SGOT test, now more often called AST (aspartate aminotransferase), measures an enzyme that helps cells process amino acids. It is found in the liver but also in heart muscle, skeletal muscle, kidneys and red blood cells. When any of these tissues is injured, AST leaks into the blood and the level rises on your report.
