Microalbumin Assay Kit (mALB)
For the in vitro quantitative determination of Microalbumin in urine.
Product Features
A slightly increased albumin excretion rate is considered predictive for the onset of clinical nephropathy and retinopathy. Because this slightly increased rate may be decreased by strictcontrolof glycemia or concomitant hypertension, there is an increasing interest in screening and monitoring the excretion of albumin in diabetics.
Assay Principle
Urine albumin reacts with antibody specific for human aibumin. The formation of the antibody-antigen complex results in an increase in turbidity at 340nm. By constructing the standard curve, the concentration of urine albumin can be determined.
