Description

Albumin is a protein produced by the liver that plays a crucial role in maintaining the osmotic pressure of blood, which helps regulate fluid balance in the body. It serves as a carrier for various substances, including hormones, vitamins, and drugs, facilitating their transport through the bloodstream. Albumin levels are commonly measured in blood tests to assess liver function, kidney health, and nutritional status. Low levels of albumin may indicate liver disease, kidney disorders, malnutrition, or chronic inflammation, while high levels can occur in dehydration or certain medical conditions.
