The rabbit anti-human serum albumin (HSA) antibody is developed using pure HSA as immunogen and affinity purified with HSA-agarose, followed by conjugation with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) through reductive amination. This conjugate can be used for ELISA and immunoblotting detection of HSA.
Scientific Description
Human serum albumin is the most abundant protein in human blood plasma. The reference range for albumin concentrations in serum is approximately 35 - 50 g/L. It has a serum half-life of approximately 20 days. It has a molecular mass of 67 kDa. In some diseases including diabetic nephropathy, a major complication of uncontrolled diabetes can cause proteins to cross the glomerulus. The lost albumin can be detected by a simple urine test. Depending on the amount of albumin lost, a patient may have normal renal function, microalbuminuria, or albuminuria.
