About Albumin Reagent
Serum albumin measurements are used in the diagnosis of numerous diseases. Elevated serum albumin levels are usually the result of dehydration. Decreased serum albumin levels are found in a number of conditions including kidney disease, liver disease, infections, severe burns and cancer.
Methodology
In 1965, Rodkey introduced a convenient, direct method for determining albumin concentrations in serum utilizing a neutral buffered solution of bromocresol green (BCG) as the dye binding indicator. In 1971, Doumas et al. increased the sensitivity of the reaction by adding a nonionic surfactant to the reagent to prevent turbidity and improve linearity. This Albumin method is a modification of the Doumas and Rodkey procedures utilizing a different buffering system.
At pH 4.2, bromocresol green reacts with albumin to form an intense green complex. The absorbance of the albumin-BCG complex is measured bichromatically (600/800nm) and is proportional to the albumin concentration in the sample.
