What would the concentration of albumin be if the total protein value was 8.5 g/dL and the densitometer measured the albumin fraction as 55% of the total

Respuesta :

Concentration of albumin = 4.675

How to calculate the concentration of albumin?

Multiple the amount of albumin in each of our tubes by 1,000 ug/mg to get the number of micrograms present. 0.1 mg/ml multiplied by 1000 ug/mg results in 100 ug/ml (the mg cancel out).

Given:

Total protein value = 8.5 g/dL

The densitometer measured the albumin fraction = 55%

Concentration of albumin =?

Formula:

Concentration of albumin = Total protein value x The densitometer measured the albumin fraction  

Explanation:

Concentration  of albumin = 8.5 g/dL * 55/100

                                            = 8.5 x 0.55

                                            = 4.675

So, The concentration of albumin is 4.675.
