Abstract
High-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) analysis of human serum albumin (HSA) on a GS-520 column with 0.03 M sodium phosphate buffer-0.15 M sodium sulphate (pH 6.87) showed three peaks, the principal component corresponding to human mercaptalbumin (HMA) and the secondary and tertiary components to nonmercaptalbumin (HNA). Using HPLC analysis, the nonmercapt----mercapt conversion of HSA during haemodialysis and the mercapt----nonmercapt conversion after haemodialysis in chronic renal failure were re-confirmed, indicating that HMA is a covalent carrier protein for sulphur-containing amino acids. Fractions of HMA in various liver diseases were significantly lower than those of healthy male adults.Entities:
