Understanding Serum Albumin in Mumbai

What is Serum Albumin in Mumbai?

The Serum Albumin test measures the level of albumin, a protein made by the liver. This test is available at an affordable price in Mumbai with Tata 1mg labs. This test helps in assessing liver and kidney function, monitoring nutritional status, detecting underlying health conditions, and evaluating overall health. Abnormal albumin levels can indicate liver or kidney disease, malnutrition, or dehydration. This test is recommended as part of routine health checkups; if a liver or kidney disease is suspected; or if you have symptoms of liver or kidney disease, such as dark urine, pale stools, swelling in the legs and ankles, or unexplained fatigue.

What does Serum Albumin measure?

The Serum Albumin test measures the level of albumin protein in your blood. Albumin is one of the major proteins found in your body; about 60% of the total protein is made up of albumin, which is produced by the liver. It helps carry small molecules, such as hormones, vitamins, minerals, and medicines, throughout the body. It also serves as a source of amino acids for tissue metabolism. Albumin helps stop the fluid from leaking out of the blood vessels. When the albumin level is insufficient, the fluid can leak out of your blood vessels and build up in your lungs, belly, or other body parts.
