Serum Albumin: A Multifaced Enzyme [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Human serum albumin (HSA) is the most abundant protein in plasma, contributing actively to oncotic pressure maintenance and fluid distribution between body compartments. HSA acts as the main carrier of fatty acids, recognizes metal ions, affects pharmacokinetics of many drugs, provides the metabolic modification of some ligands, renders potential ...

Determination of Serum Albumin [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 1968 Abstract Good agreement was obtained between an electrophoretic and an immunoprecipitation method for serum albumin, and it is suggested that these offer a means of determining serum albumin concentration with reasonable accuracy. The methyl orange dye-binding method tends to give slightly higher results in disease and occasionally ...
