refimprove date April 2009 In clinical terms, a potentiator is a reagent that enhances sensitization of an antigen . Potentiators are used in the clinical laboratory for performing blood bank ing procedures that require enhancement of agglutination in order to detect the presence of antibodies or antigens in a patient s blood sample. Examples of potentiators include serum albumin albumin , LISS low ionic strength saline and PEG polyethylene glycol ref cite book author Harmening, Denise M. title Modern Blood Banking & Transfusion Practices publisher F. A. Davis Company year 2005 id ISBN 0 8036 1248 6 ref . Potentiators are also known as enhancement reagents. Albumin acts as a potentiator by reducing the zeta potential around the suspended red blood cells, thus dispersing the repulsive negative charges and enhancing agglutination. L ow i onic s trength s aline is a potentiator that acts by not only reducing the zeta potential , but also by increasing the amount of antibody taken up by the red blood cell during sensitization. LISS is a solution of glycine and albumin. P oly e thylene g lycol in a LISS solution removes water from the system and thus concentrates the antibodies present. PEG can cause non specific aggregation of cells, thus eliminating the necessity for centrifugation after 37 C incubation. PEG is not appropriate for use in samples from patients with increased plasma protein, such as patients with multiple myeloma . False positive results may occur more frequently with the use of polyethylene glycol due to its strong agglutination capabilities. Pharmacology In clinical pharmacology, a potentiator is a drug, herb, or chemical that intensifies the effects of a given drug, such as hydroxyzine used to get more pain relief and anxiolysis out of an equal dose of an opioid medication. The potentiation can take place at any part of the liberation, absorption, distribution, metabolism & elimination of the drug. References reflist references Category Reagents for o ... more details

Serum total protein , also called plasma total protein or total protein , is a Clinical chemistry biochemical test for measuring the total amount of protein in blood plasma or blood serum serum . ref name urlTotal Serum Protein cite web url http www.webmd.com a to z guides total serum protein title Total Serum Protein format work accessdate ref Protein in the plasma is made up of serum albumin albumin and globulin . The globulin in turn is made up of Alpha 1 globulins 1 , Alpha 2 globulins 2 , Beta globulins , and Gamma globulins globulins. These fractions can be quantitated using protein electrophoresis , but the total protein test is a faster and cheaper test that estimates the total of all fractions together. The traditional method for measuring total protein uses the biuret reagent , but other chemical methods such as Kjeldahl method , dye binding and refractometry are now available. The measurement is usually performed on automated analyser s along with other medical laboratory laboratory tests. Ranges The Reference ranges for common blood tests reference range for total protein is 60 85g L. It is also sometimes reported as 6 8.5g dl . Concentrations below the reference range usually reflect low albumin concentration, for instance in liver disease or acute infection .

Globulin in human biochemistry is one of the three types of blood plasma serum protein s, the others being serum albumin albumin and fibrinogen . Some globulins are produced in the liver, while others are made by the immune system. The term globulin encompasses a heterogeneous group of proteins with typical high molecular weight, and both solubility and electrophoretic migration rates lower than for albumin. The normal concentration in blood is 2.60 to 4.60 g dl. It is sometimes used synonymously with globular protein . However, albumin is also a globular protein, but not a globulin. All other serum globular proteins are globulins. Protein electrophoresis is used to categorize globulins into the following four categories Alpha 1 globulins Alpha 2 globulins Beta globulins Gamma globulins one group of gamma globulins are immunoglobulin s, that function as antibody antibodies File Blood values sorted by mass and molar concentration.png thumb 550px center Reference ranges for blood tests , comparing blood content of globulins shown in purple at right with other constituents. Sizes Globulin exists in various sizes. The lightest being Alpha globulin of the order 90 Kilo Dalton to the heaviest being Gamma Globulin which are about 120 Kilo Dalton. Being the heaviest, the Gamma Globulin are among the slowest to segregate in Electrophoresis. Since they are immunologically active, they are also called as Immunoglobulin. Plant globulins Non human globulin proteins exist as well, such as cucurbitin from squashes and vicilin and legumin from legumes and peas, functioning as protein storage within seeds.
