Albumin from human serum

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Albumin from human serum is a laboratory product that serves as a source of albumin, the most abundant protein found in human blood plasma. Albumin plays a crucial role in maintaining the osmotic pressure of blood and transporting various substances, including hormones, vitamins, and drugs. This product is commonly used in various scientific and clinical applications that require a reliable source of human albumin.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
