α1-microglobulin (α1-MG) Test

The microglobulin test is mainly used to determine the content of alpha-1-microglobulin (α1-MG) in human urine, thereby further conducting the auxiliary diagnosis of renal tubular injury.

Testing Principle of α1-microglobulin (α1-MG) Test

• The antibody of alpha-1-microglobulin is coated on the latex surface.
• The α1-MG in the sample and the antibody become immune complexes by Latex agglutination reaction.
• The immune complexes will produce the phenomenon of light scattering which is proportional to the intensity of scattered light and samples of α1-MG levels.
• Using a specific protein analyzer to measure the intensity of scattered light, the concentration of α1-MG is determined by comparing the turbidity of samples to the standard concentration.
