Albumin test is done to determine levels of albumin in various body tissues. Levels are determined by collecting and examining a venous blood sample from patients.
Albumin is one the most abundantly found proteins in all tissues and body fluids. It is synthesized in the liver and circulated to other organs. Albumin is very important for normal functioning of human body. Several important physiological functions are carried out by albumin. Some of these functions include circulating hormones, enzymes, nutrients and other important substances up to the target organs.

Albumin metabolism is a function of the liver. Therefore, blood levels of albumin help in diagnosing liver dysfunction. Disorders like jaundice, liver infection, liver cirrhosis, even cancer of liver, will lead to abnormal elevation of blood albumin levels. Along with other associated diagnostic tests, albumin test helps in detecting these disorders. Jaundice, yellowing skin, recurrent digestive troubles, nausea and vomiting, chronic fatigue, recurrent abdominal pain, are common symptoms for which patients may be advised to undergo the test.
Albumin test is performed at any well equipped pathology lab or a hospital offering similar services. Patients should be present in the lab before the assigned time for the test. A venous blood sample will be collected from a vein in the arm. Patients may experience minute pricking sensation when a needle is stuck in their arm. There could be minor pain and bruising at the sight from where blood has been withdrawn. These symptoms subside within the next few hours. Patients may be asked to show up on an empty stomach for the test. For this reason, early morning hours are preferable for performing albumin test. It takes about 5-6 hours to obtain test results after blood sample has been collected.
The levels of albumin in an average healthy adult is between 3.5-5.5 g/dL. Values of albumin falling below 3 or above 6 are considered to be signs of ill health. It is not uncommon for pregnant women to have slightly lowered levels of albumin. Abnormal reduction of albumin during pregnancy is part of a condition known as preeclampsia. Apart from the above mentioned health conditions, medicines like steroids, birth control pills, certain dietary supplements, are also likely to alter levels of albumin. Patients who are consuming any such medicines should consult with their doctor before undergoing Albumin test.
If albumin levels are above or below the standard healthy range, patients may be asked to undergo a urine albumin test as well. Other diagnostic studies which could be advised along with albumin test are abdominal scans, liver function test, blood test, to check levels of pancreatic enzymes etc. Patients should undergo albumin test only if a doctor has advised them and not otherwise.
