thx of invitation , but out of exp.
2- serum ferritin
Body-store iron deficiency is diagnosed by tests such as a low serum ferritin, a low serum Fe level, an elevated serum transferrin and a highTIBC. A low s.ferritin is the most sensitive lab test for iron deficiency anemia (IDA). However, serum ferritin can be elevated by any type of chronic inflammation and so is not always a reliable test of iron status if it is within normal limits (i.e. this test is meaningful if abnormally low, but less meaningful if normal).
Serum ferritin which is the storage form of iron and directly affected by deficiency of iron
I agree with Mr. Shahin answer
