Serum albumin is the most abundant plasma protein in mammals.
Albumin is essential for maintaining the osmotic pressure needed
for proper distribution of body fluids between intravascular
compartments and body tissues. It also acts as a plasma carrier by
non-specifically binding several hydrophobic steroid hormones and
as a transport protein for hemin and fatty acids. This book
presents current research in the study of the structure, functions
and health impacts of serum albumin. Topics include the catalytic
activities of serum albumin; the interaction of serum albumin with
anaesthetics; microparticulate drug delivery systems based on serum
albumin; hydration of human serum albumin and extracting physical
properties of serum albumin using osmotic pressure.
