Summary

This study checks if a simpler way to collect blood samples works as well as the standard method for the HepQuant DuO liver test. The test involves drinking a natural substance and taking blood samples 20 and 60 minutes later. Researchers will compare different blood collection tubes and methods in 200 healthy adults and people with chronic liver disease. The goal is to make the test easier and more convenient.
