Alpha 2 globulin/Protein.total [Pure mass fraction] in Urine by Electrophoresis
Active
Term Description
Because of the confusion that occurs in countries that report results as both decimal fraction and percent, this property was created to represent decimal fractions that are reported without units.

Part Descriptions
LP15834-2 Alpha 2 globulin
Alpha globulins are a group of plasma proteins, belonging to the serpin superfamily, that are highly mobile in alkaline or electrically charged solutions. They inhibit certain blood proteases; examples include Alpha 1 antitrypsin, alpha 1 antichymotrypsin, and serum amyloid A.

LP32144-5 Protein.total
Serum total protein, also called plasma total protein or total protein, is a biochemical test for measuring the total amount of protein in blood plasma or serum.
Protein in the plasma is made up of albumin and globulin. The globulin in turn is made up of α1, α2, β, and γ globulins. These fractions can be quantitated using protein electrophoresis, but the total protein test is a faster and cheaper test that estimates the total of all fractions together. The traditional method for measuring total protein uses the biuret reagent, but other chemical methods such as Kjeldahl method, dye-binding and refractometry are now available. The measurement is usually performed on automated analysers along with other laboratory tests.
