CHEMISTRY
ALBUMIN
INCREASED absolute
3.2-5.5 g/dL
serum albumin content is
not seen as a natural
condition. Relative
increase may occur in
hemoconcentration.
Absolute increase may
occur artificially by
infusion of hyperoncotic
albumin suspensions.
DECREASED serum
albumin is seen in states of
decreased synthesis
(malnutrition,
malabsorption, liver
disease, and other chronic
diseases), increased loss
(nephritic syndrome, many
GI conditions, thermal
burns, etc.), and increased
catabolism (thyrotoxicosis,
