Albumin (ALB) is the most abundant protein in human plasma and is synthesized primarily by hepatocytes in the liver. It plays essential roles in maintaining oncotic pressure, transporting hormones, fatty acids, and drugs, and regulating fluid distribution within the circulatory system. Due to its high expression in liver tissue and secretion into the bloodstream, Albumin is widely used as a marker of liver function and hepatocyte activity in biological and clinical research contexts.
Albumin antibody, also referred to as ALB antibody and serum albumin antibody in the literature, recognizes a highly abundant cytoplasmic and secreted protein that is characteristic of hepatocyte-derived tissues. In tissue-based analyses, Albumin is typically observed as strong cytoplasmic staining in hepatocytes and hepatocyte-derived tumor cells, supporting its use as a lineage marker for liver origin. In western blot analysis, Albumin is detected as a prominent band corresponding to its expected molecular weight in liver lysates, reflecting its high expression and secretion. This antibody is part of a collection of Human Protein Microarray validated antibodies that have been screened for specificity across thousands of proteins.
This Albumin Antibody / Microarray Specificity Validated Serum Protein Antibody (clone ALB/2142) is uniquely positioned for applications requiring high confidence in target specificity. Microarray-based validation provides a proteome-scale assessment of antibody binding, enabling evaluation of cross-reactivity against thousands of proteins simultaneously. This approach supports identification of antibodies with strong target selectivity and minimal off-target interactions, which is particularly important for highly abundant proteins such as Albumin where non-specific binding could complicate interpretation.
In proteome-wide microarray analysis, clone ALB/2142 demonstrates strong and specific recognition of Albumin relative to other proteins, supporting its use in applications where specificity and reproducibility are critical. This validation strategy provides an additional layer of confidence beyond standard assay-based testing, ensuring that observed signals correspond to the intended target protein.
As a mouse monoclonal antibody, clone ALB/2142 offers consistent performance for detecting Albumin in research applications. An Albumin antibody is suitable for detecting ALB expression in studies of liver biology, serum protein dynamics, and tissue characterization where validated specificity is essential for accurate interpretation.
For broader detection of Albumin in liver function and hepatocyte biology studies, see our Albumin antibody (clone ALB/2141).
The optimal dilution of the Albumin Antibody / Microarray Specificity Validated Serum Protein Antibody for each application should be determined by the researcher.
1. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
Full length recombinant human protein was used as the immunogen for this human Albumin antibody.
