Proteins are crucial building blocks of all cells and tissues. They play a role in building various structures in our body, as well as carrying out many important processes for our body to function normally. Our blood and other body fluids contain several proteins that serve diverse functions, such as transport of nutrients, removal of toxins, control of metabolic processes such as digestion, and defence against external substances. Protein electrophoresis is a method for separating these proteins based on their size and electric charge. Since albumin is the most important and abundantly available protein in the body, it’s the most commonly measured protein in the blood, followed by globulin. It has various forms depending on the structure.
