What is Cerebrospinal Fluid Analysis Guide about?
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulates around the central nervous system and is produced by the choroid plexuses. It provides nutrients and removes waste from nervous tissue. A normal CSF sample is clear with a white blood cell count below 5 cells/uL in adults. Chemical analysis of CSF examines properties such as protein, glucose, and lactate levels to help diagnose conditions like bacterial meningitis. Abnormal results can indicate disruption of the blood-brain barrier or presence of infection.
