Native Human Prealbumin

• Cat.No.: TTR-254H

Specification

• Description: Serum protein found in plasma at 30 mg per 100 ml. Functions in the transport of thyroxine, vitamin A, and retinol-binding protein. Clinically, prealbumin is a sensitive indicator of impaired liver function; low levels are found in viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, malnutrition, inflammation, and surgical trauma.
