Polyclonal Rabbit Anti-Human Albumin is intended for the quantitative determination of albumin in human sample material by turbidimetry and nephelometry. The sample is mixed with the antibody solution. The resulting immune complexes are measured by turbidimetry or nephelometry. The signal generated is correlated with the concentration of albumin in the sample. By interpolation on a standard curve the concentration of albumin in the sample is calculated.
The measuring range is approximately 3-70 g/L in serum/plasma, 2-100 mg/L in urine and 15-850 mg/L in cerebrospinal fluid depending on the specific lot of the calibrator and the Application Note used.
