Alternative names and identifiers

Names used across publications, databases and supplier catalogues.

Biological function

Albumin is the major plasma protein responsible for maintaining blood colloid osmotic pressure and transporting a broad range of endogenous and exogenous molecules. It binds fatty acids, hormones, bilirubin, drugs and metal ions and is a major carrier of zinc and circulating calcium and magnesium.

Research context

ALB / albumin is studied in plasma biology, transport, liver function and biomarker workflows. Use the catalogue filters below to compare ABMIUM reagents by species, application and validation, and confirm product-level suitability before use.

Interaction context

Proteins associated with ALB

Explore biologically relevant proteins connected to ALB through receptor complexes, pathway context, curated molecular relationships or database-supported functional evidence. Each relationship should be interpreted independently and does not establish reagent suitability.

Interpretation: Identity and identifiers were checked against NCBI and reviewed UniProtKB. Biological function and the listed interaction are conservatively paraphrased from UniProt evidence. Catalogue association does not establish suitability for a specific assay.
