Microalbumin

Microalbumin Overview

Albumin is one of the most important proteins in the body. It plays a vital role in cell repair and in the functioning of the body’s system. The kidneys are responsible for filtering the blood and helping to get rid of the waste products in the urine. They also keep the important components in the blood, especially proteins like albumin. When kidney function is impaired, albumin escapes the blood and is eliminated in the urine. A microalbumin test is used to test the level of albumin in the urine. This test is usually done along with a creatinine test to check the kidney status. Albumin is often found in the blood. It plays an important role in tissue development and repair. Kidneys are responsible for filtering waste from the blood. They also replenish the body with essential minerals and proteins, especially albumin. The kidneys also control the body’s water balance. When kidneys are damaged or are not functioning properly, albumin leaks into the urine.
