Getein mAlb Fast Test Kit is used as an aid in the detection of kidney diseases and increased cardiovascular risk in diabetic nephropathy.
Intended Use
The mAlb Fast Test Kit (Immunofluorescence Assay) is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of microalbuminuria (mAlb) in urine. An elevated mAlb concentration below the proteinuric level has long been recognized as a marker of kidney disease and increased cardiovascular risk in diabetic nephropathy.
About mAlb
Albumin is one of the major plasma proteins. Under normal conditions, albumin molecules are too large to cross the glomerular basement membrane, resulting in very low concentrations of albumin in urine. Damage to the glomerular basement membrane alters its permeability, allowing albumin to enter the urine. Sustained elevation of urinary albumin concentration is called microalbuminuria (mAlb), which arises from increased leakage through the glomerular basement membrane.
