Plasma protein fraction

Plasma protein fraction is a laboratory test that measures the amount of specific proteins in your blood plasma, the fluid part of blood. These proteins, mainly albumin and globulins, are vital for maintaining fluid balance, transporting substances, and supporting immune functions. The test helps assess overall health, liver and kidney function, and can identify conditions like infections, inflammation, or malnutrition. By analyzing the levels of these proteins, doctors can gain insights into how well your body is functioning and identify potential illnesses.
