Single slide clips designed for monitoring and assessing Albumin levels. These clips can be combined with other chemistry clips to form a tailored panel that meets the specific needs of your patient. Key Reasons for Conducting the Test: To explore the underlying causes of hypoalbuminemia, including protein-losing nephropathy, protein-losing enteropathy, as well as liver insufficiency (reduced production) and decreased absorption linked to malabsorption (gastrointestinal disorders) or malnutrition. Furthermore, this test is useful in evaluating the severity of dehydration, as increases in serum albumin levels may indicate dehydration, while it is often reduced in cases of active inflammatory diseases (acting as a negative acute phase reactant). It is important to note that this test should not be conducted in isolation due to its limited specificity.
