does anyone know anything about albumin???

It's a component of teh blood (i believe a blood protein) and it helps maintain the right blood volume.

Doesn't it help regulate osmotic pressure?

Yeah, exactly, blood volume. It helps regulate how much fluid leaves and becomes interstitial fluid.

how far into blood components are you guys learning?

[pjgscioisamazing]

how far into blood components are you guys learning?

Definitely know erythrocytes (red blood cells), thrombocytes (platelets), and leukocytes (white blood cells). For the WBCs, definitely learn the different kinda, like lymphocytes, basophils, eosinophils, etc.

Concerning Blood Proteins, definitely know albumin (which is a component that helps maintain the right blood volume). Other than that, who knows how in depth they could go, but I would definitely know the above plus some more blood proteins.
