products description :
Intended Uses: The Albumin test kit is a highly sensitive two-site enzyme linked immunoassay (ELISA) for measuring Albumin in serum, plasma or urine of mice. Principle of the Assay: The principle of the double antiboo an wich ELISA is represented in Figure 1. In hi assay the Alb present in samples reac: s ttb the anti-Alb antibodies which have been dsorbea to the surface of polystyrene microtitre we Is A:. te the removal of unbound proteins by wastfr g, anti-Alb antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP), are added. These enzyme-labeled antibodies form complexes with the previously bound Alb. Following another washing step, the enzyme bound to the immunosorbent is assayed by the addition of a chromogenic substrate, 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The quantity of bound enzyme varies directly with the concentration of Alb in the sample tested; thus, the absorbance, at 450 nm, is a measure of the concentration of Alb in the test sample. The quantity of Alb in the test sample can be interpolated from the standard curve constructed from the standards, and corrected for sample dilution. Background/Introduction: Albumin (Alb) is an amazing polyfunctional protein contributing to homeostasis through mechanisms of hemodynamics, transport and nutrition. Albumin is found both intra and extravascularly in all mammals and many lower vertebrates. It is a molecule of about 67,000 daltons, synthesized by the liver. Normally only very trace amounts of albumin escape reabsorption by kidney glomeruli and is excreted into the urine. Many occult diseases can cause kidney damage which may result in excessive amounts of serum proteins, including albumin, to be excreted b;t the kidney and into the urine. This ELISA kit Gan tje used to measure albumin in serum, tissue extracts and other biological fluids.

ncbi summary :
Albumin is a soluble, monomeric protein which comprises about one-half of the blood serum protein. Albumin functions primarily as a carrier protein for steroids, fatty acids, and thyroid hormones and plays a role in stabilizing extracellular fluid volume. Albumin is a globular unglycosylated serum protein of molecular weight 65,000. Albumin is synthesized in the liver as preproalbumin which has an N-terminal peptide that is removed before the nascent protein is released from the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The product, proalbumin, is in turn cleaved in the Golgi vesicles to produce the secreted albumin. [provided by RefSeq]
uniprot summary :
albumin: Serum albumin, the main protein of plasma, has a good binding capacity for water, Ca(2+), Na(+), K(+), fatty acids, hormones, bilirubin and drugs. Its main function is the regulation of the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood. Major zinc transporter in plasma, typically binds about 80% of all plasma zinc. Plasma. Belongs to the ALB/AFP/VDB family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide; Carrier. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 4q13.3. Cellular Component: extracellular space; protein complex; extracellular region; basement membrane; nucleus. Molecular Function: antioxidant activity; toxin binding; protein binding; enzyme binding; copper ion binding; DNA binding; zinc ion binding; chaperone binding; drug binding; oxygen binding; fatty acid binding; pyridoxal phosphate binding.
