General
- The material for testing is blood.
- The patient does not need to fast. It is recommended to drink a glass of water approximately 30 minutes before the examination.

Description
Free PSA – uncomplexed prostate-specific antigen not bound to alpha-antichymotrypsin and other serum binding proteins.
Free PSA is a significantly (p<0.0001) lower fraction in patients with untreated prostate cancer than in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
In men with serum PSA levels lower than 10 ng/ml, comparison of total PSA concentration with free fraction concentration is proposed
as a differentiating factor between prostate cancer and BPH.
