A simple colorimetric assay to determine the concentration and proportion of human mercaptalbumin
Objectives: Human serum albumin can take on two forms, mercaptalbumin (HMA) or non-mercaptalbumin (HNA), depending on the redox status of its Cys34. The ratio of HMA and HNA is considered to be a novel biomarker of oxidative stress. While HPLC and mass spectrometry are established methods to measure...
