Understand the primary functions of albumin in the blood. Albumin is a protein produced by the liver and has several key roles.
Recognize that one of the main functions of albumin is to maintain osmotic pressure. This helps to keep fluid in the bloodstream and prevents it from leaking into other tissues.
Albumin also acts as a buffer for pH, helping to maintain the acid-base balance in the blood.
Albumin is involved in the transport of various substances, including hormones, vitamins, and drugs, throughout the bloodstream.
Identify that initiating blood clotting is not a function of albumin. Blood clotting is primarily initiated by platelets and clotting factors, not by albumin.
