Bisalbuminemia is a rare, typically benign condition marked by the presence of a bifid albumin band on serum protein electrophoresis. It can either be inherited due to a point mutation or acquired in association with various medical conditions, most commonly diabetes mellitus. Bisalbuminuria, the presence of bifid albumin in urine, may or may not accompany bisalbuminemia.

Article Synopsis
  • Bisalbuminemia and bisalbuminuria are rare conditions where abnormal albumin bands are found in serum and urine, typically discovered during screenings for other health issues, with a prevalence of 1 in 1,000 to 1 in 10,000.
  • The reported case involved two adult male diabetic patients, one with rheumatoid arthritis and potential Sjogren syndrome, exhibiting both bisalbuminemia and bisalbuminuria, while the other had chronic kidney disease and exhibited bisalbuminemia only.
  • These conditions may arise from genetic variants or be acquired, often associated with diabetes, and while many cases are harmless, some albumin variants can affect how the body handles certain hormones and medications, potentially leading to significant health

[Qualitative dysalbuminemia in capillary serum protein electrophoresis: a case series of 70 patients].

Ann Biol Clin (Paris)

Laboratoire de biochimie clinique, CHU Mohammed-VI - Marrakech, Maroc.

Capillary serum protein electrophoresis (CPE) is a high-resolution technique. Thus, it is highly sensitive to the detection of qualitatives dysalbuminemia. By the present study, we aim to describe modifications of albumin fraction within the electrophoretogramm and to expose the underlying diseases.
