The ALB Polyclonal Antibody (PAC024912) is a powerful tool for researchers studying the albumin protein, a key player in maintaining blood volume and pressure, transporting molecules, and regulating pH in the body. This antibody, developed using rabbit immunoglobulins, exhibits high specificity for human samples and is suitable for Western blotting applications. By binding to albumin, it allows for the accurate detection and analysis of this important protein in a variety of cell types and tissues, making it an essential component in studies related to metabolism, liver function, and kidney health.
Albumin, often referred to as a serum protein, serves as a major transporter of hormones, fatty acids, and drugs in the bloodstream. Its role in regulating osmotic pressure and maintaining fluid balance is crucial for overall health, making it a target of interest in various research fields, including nephrology, cardiology, and endocrinology. By investigating the function and levels of albumin, researchers can gain valuable insights into conditions such as kidney disease, heart failure, and nutritional deficiencies, paving the way for improved diagnostics and treatment options.
