... LAB #7 : ELECTROPHORESIS Introduction : Protein electrophoresis is used to evaluate, diagnose and monitor a variety of diseases and conditions. It is a technique used to separate different elements (fractions) of a blood sample into individual components. Serum protein electrophoresis (SPEP) is a screening test that is used to determine the total amount of protein in the blood and to establish the levels of the major blood proteins by separating them into five distinct fractions: albumin, alpha1, alpha2, beta, and gamma proteins. Albumin is a protein that is made in the liver. It helps to retain elements like calcium, some hormones, and certain drugs in the circulation by binding to them to prevent their being filtered out by the kidneys. Albumin also acts to regulate the movement of water between the tissues and the bloodstream by attracting water to areas with higher concentrations of salts or proteins. Globulins are another type
