Description

General description

Albumin constitutes 25% of the proteins produced by the liver and is a prominent protein found in the blood. It is a protein of a single polypeptide chain with a thiol group.

Application

Albumin human has been used:

  • to study its adsorption process on model mica surface at pH 3.5 using the atomic force microscopy (AFM) and in situ streaming potential measurements
  • to study its proteolytic activities under reducing conditions
  • in the medium for stem cell cultivation

This recombinant variant is recommended for use in absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) pharmacological research; cell culture; drug delivery research; and cryopreservation of cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Albumin is a binding and transport protein that serves as a protein repository and a carrier for amino acids. Albumin binding dissolves the biomolecules in blood and ensures its effective transport. This also prevents the loss of substance through excretion. Pathological conditions like vasculitis, lymphangiectasia, glomerulonephritis, and hepatic sinusoidal hypertension might result in hypoalbuminemia. This product can be used in the pharmaceutical industry as a drug excipient and to coat medical devices.

Albumins are soluble monomeric proteins found in the body fluids and tissues of animals and in some plant seeds. Serum albumin functions as a carrier protein for steroids, fatty acids, and thyroid hormones. Serum albumins are also vital in regulating the colloidal osmotic pressures of blood.
