Overview

Free Kappa (kappa) Light Chain Test

Free Kappa (kappa) Light Chain Test

The Free Kappa (kappa) Light Chain Test measures the concentration of unbound Kappa immunoglobulin light chains circulating in the blood. Immunoglobulins (antibodies) are composed of two heavy chains and two light chains (kappa or lambda). Normally, the vast majority of these chains are bound together in the complete antibody structure.

However, plasma cells (B-cells) sometimes produce an excess of light chains that circulate freely in the blood. The measurement of these Free Light Chains (FLCs), both Kappa (kappa) and Lambda (lambda), and the calculation of their ratio (kappa: lambda) is an indispensable tool in the diagnosis and monitoring of plasma cell disorders.

At Augmentum Diagnostics, an NABL-Accredited Lab in Delhi, we provide highly sensitive FLC testing, which is critical for the management of diseases like Multiple Myeloma.

Frequently asked questions on " Free Kappa (kappa) Light Chain Test "

Yes. FLC testing, including the Free Kappa level and the ratio, is one of the most important tools for monitoring treatment response. If a patient is successfully treated, the level of the abnormal (involved) light chain and the kappa: lambda ratio should normalize or decrease significantly. A rising abnormal FLC level often signals disease relapse.

While an abnormal ratio strongly suggests a plasma cell disorder, high concentrations of both Kappa and Lambda (but with a normal ratio) can be seen in: Kidney Failure: Due to impaired clearance of both light chains by the kidneys. Chronic Inflammation/Infection: Due to overall increased B-cell activity.

No, fasting is not required for the FLC test.

FLC testing requires highly specialized nephelometry or turbidimetry equipment and standardized reagents to ensure accuracy at low concentrations. Augmentum Diagnostics is an NABL Accredited Lab and one of the best pathology labs in Delhi. Our precision in this assay is crucial for the early detection and precise monitoring of potentially aggressive hematological malignancies.
