Homozygous bisalbuminemia or homozygous mutant albumin?

摘要

Bisalbuminemia is a genetic condition in which an albumin variant is found in serum in addition to normal albumin.Serum protein electrophoresis using the Sebia HYDRASYS electrophoresis system was performed on an 84 year old male.Serum protein electrophoresis showed a single albumin band migrating faster than normal albumin.The presence of a homozygous albumin variant band, albumin Naskapi, is noted.
