Isolation and purification of plasma albumin from human blood samples

Isolation and purification of albumin from human plasma by direct and combined approach of ion-exchange chromatography and comparison of the final products quality obtained by both methods

Background: Due to multiple roles of albumin in the body, injection of its medicinal product as one of the therapeutic or management strategies under conditions such as severe bleeding, burns, liver failure, and neonatal hemolytic diseases is on the physicians' agenda. Considering that albumin is the most abundant plasma protein, designing an appropriate method to purify it is highly important....

Isolation of albumin from whole human plasma and fractionation of albumin-depleted plasma.

The dye Cibacron Blue F-3-GA was conjugated to Sepharose to provide an affinity column for serum albumin. Passage of whole human plasma through a column of Cibacron Blue-Sepharose results in the removal of approx. 98% of the albumin. The latter can be quantitatively recovered by desorption with NaSCN. Albumin-depleted plasma can be readily resolved into discrete fractions by a combination of co...

Isolation and characterization of plasma membranes from human blood platelets.

Human platelets were subjected to hypoto?ic lysis after being loaded intracellularly with glycerol (4.3 M) by centrifugation in a glycerol gradient under controlled conditions. A homogeneous membrane fraction, free of intracellular organelles, was isolated after a single density step centrifugation, while continuous sucrose density gradient centrifugation gave two subfractions with densities of...

The isolation of albumin from blood serum or plasma by means of organic solvents.

Removal of stabilizers from human serum albumin by adsorbents and dialysis used in blood purification

INTRODUCTION Human serum albumin (HSA) is a monomeric multi-domain protein that possesses an extraordinary binding capacity. It plays an important role in storing and transporting endogenous substances, metabolites, and drugs throughout the human circulatory system. Clinically, HSA is used to treat a variety of diseases such as hypovolemia, shock, burns, hemorrhage, and trauma in critically ill...
