ALBUMIN
Albumin has this many binding sites
4
The primary structure of a protein refers to this
amino acid sequence
Increased with severe liver disease, increased with Reye's Syndrome, not used for renal disease diagnosis.
ammonia
creatine clearance measures the function of this
kidney
protein that is responsible for transporting iron
transferrin
main physiological function of albumin is this
maintain osmotic pressure
normal reference range for total serum protein
6.4 - 8.3 g/dl
This test is analyzed to determine skeletal muscle necrosis and atrophy.
creatine
a red-orange chromogen is formed when creatinine reacts with WHAT in WHICH reaction
picric acid, Jaffe reaction
proteins that help with the immune response
complement proteins
reagent used in measuring albumin
bromocresol green
smallest and most abundant of the plasma proteins
albumin
non-protein nitrogen compound that is extremely toxic to cells
ammonia
Creatinine clearance results are reported in
ml/min
the final breakdown product of proteins
urea
Albumin is ___________________ which means it will decrease in inflammatory response
a negative acute phase reactant
total protein level in Multiple Myeloma
increased
disease state associated with an elevation of serum uric acid
gout
Creatine Clearance is sometimes adjusted for this
lean body mass
Urinary creatine may be elevated due to this
muscle destruction
Formula for A/G Ratio
TP-Alb=globulin
Alb/globulin = A/G ratio
a low protein diet would have this kind of BUN level
decreased
uricase method for uric acid assay depends on the oxidation of uric acid to this
allantoin
Formula for Creatinine Clearance
Urine creat (mg/dl) x urine vol (ml)/Serum creat (mg/dl)X 1440 (min)
beta gamma bridge on an electrophoretic reaction indicates this
cirrhosis of the liver
