One of a group of simple proteins made by the liver. Serum albumin is the main protein found in the blood (about 60 percent of the total). It is responsible for much of the plasma colloidal osmotic pressure and serves as a transport protein. Human albumin USP is administered intravenously to restore blood volume following shock, trauma, surgery, an [..]

The main protein in human blood and the key to regulating the osmotic pressure of blood. Chemically, albumin is soluble in water, precipitated by acid, and coagulated by heat.

A type of protein found in blood, egg white, milk, and other substances.

A type of protein that can be dissolved in water; found in milk, egg white, certain muscle, blood, and some urine.

(al-byoo´min) A water-soluble protein produced in the liver; the major component of the plasma proteins. aldosterone

Any of a large class of simple proteins that are important constituents of vertebrate blood plasma and tissue fluids and also present in milk, whites of eggs, and other animal substances. alcoholic fermentation

water-soluble blood protein (pop)

A group of protein that are found in milk.

Albumin is the main protein in blood plasma. Low levels occur in conditions associated with malnutrition, inflammation and liver and kidney diseases. Source: NIH - National Cancer Institute

A water-soluble protein found in milk, egg, muscle, blood and many vegetable tissues and fluids.

A protein made by the liver. Abnormal levels of this substance may indicate liver or kidney disease.

Serum Albumin from cows, commonly used in In Vitro biological studies. (From Stedman, 25th ed)

Normal Human Serum Albumin mildly iodinated with radioactive Iodine (131-I) which has a Half-Life of 8 days, and emits beta and Gamma Rays. It is used as a diagnostic aid in Blood Volume Determination [..]

A major protein in the Blood. It is important in maintaining the colloidal Osmotic Pressure and transporting large organic molecules.

A protein made by the liver and found in high concentrations in blood. This protein may be measured as part of a liver function test. See Related Term(s): Liver Function Test

a protein found in egg white, milk, green plants, seeds, and animal blood.

a protein found in egg white, milk, green plants, seeds, and animal blood.

A protein found in most animal and many plant tissues that coagulates on heating.

Albumin is commonly known as Egg Whites. Nutrition Albumin contains over half of the Eggs Protein.

A type of protein found in blood, egg white, milk, and other substances.

a type of protein that is widely found in plants and animals

A protein in cocoons that serves as a food source for embryonic worms.

Albumin is the main protein in human blood and is the key to the regulation of the osmotic pressure of blood. Albumin is important because it has the ability to bind to water and without it our tissue [..]

Water-soluble, ubiquitously occurring protein (major protein in blood plasma) that is usually extracted from egg white and used as emulsifier.

1. <chemistry> Any protein that is soluble in water and moderately concentrated salt solutions and is coagulable by heat. Found in egg whites, blood, lymph, and other tissues and fluids. 2. <biochemistry> Serum albumin, the major plasma protein (approximately 60 per cent of the total), which is responsible for much of the plasma colloid [..]

As the first plasma treatment ever produced, this plasma-derived medicine was created to replace lost blood volume and essential blood proteins following trauma, shock and severe burns. Albumin is also the name of a naturally occurring protein found in plasma. Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency

A type of simple protein, varieties of which are widely distributed throughout the tissues and fluids.

albumin (type of proteins)

The major protein in plasma that is important in maintaining blood volume.

a protein that is in most animal tissues. The presence of albumin in the urine may be a sign of kidney or bladder infection or early kidney damage.

A major protein found in the blood. The protein level can provide some indication of overall health and nutritional status.
