What Is an Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) Test? An alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) test is a blood test that measures the amount of AFP present in blood. Itâs usually part of whatâs called a triple screen or quad screen in the second trimester of pregnancy. The yolk sac and liver of an unborn baby produce AFP. It then circulates through the fetal and maternal blood. Individuals who arenât pregnant still have some AFP in their blood, but levels are normally low. High levels of AFP in adults who arenât pregnant usually indicate certain types of liver disease.
