“…In a healthy human, all bilirubin molecules produced from hemoglobin are bound by human serum albumin (HSA) and transported to the liver, where these complexes turn into mono-conjugates (bilirubin glucuronides) and are excreted into the bile. 12,13 Different kinds of disorders may lead to an increase in the levels of unconjugated bilirubin, especially in the neonatal period. Usually, it happens because of the reduced activity of an enzyme uridine diphosphoglucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1).…”

“…Bilirubin is produced in the reticuloendothelial system as an end‐product of haem catabolism . High serum bilirubin, or hyperbilirubinaemia, results from disorders that occur in any of the multiple steps of conjugation and excretion . In individuals with profound hyperbilirubinaemia, increased bilirubin filtration may lead to the formation of bile casts .…”

“…There is wide disparity in the bilirubin thresholds used for phototherapy among neonatal centres across the globe 6 . The bilirubin levels at which neurotoxicity is reported in the literature are also highly variable 15 16 17 .…”
