Guest guest Posted January 8, 2003 Report Share Posted January 8, 2003 Albumin Albumin is the major protein that circulates in the bloodstream. Albumin is synthesized by the liver and secreted into the blood. Low serum albumin concentrations indicate poor liver function. The serum albumin concentration is usually normal in chronic liver diseases until cirrhosis and significant liver damage is present. Albumin levels can be low in conditions other than liver diseases including malnutrition, some kidney diseases and other rarer conditions.
