Albumin (HSA) is the most abundant circulating protein and plays a pivotal role in maintaining the redox state of the plasma. Three HSA proteoforms have been identified based on the redox state of cysteine 34. These proteoforms comprise of the reduced state (HSA-SH) referred to as mercaptoalbumin, n...
