title: [Changes in the plasma protein concentration as a factor influencing the fructosamine value].
abstract: Fructosamine values are notably influenced by plasma protein concentration. Total protein concentration in addition to variations in the plasma protein concentrations (Dysproteinemia) play a role here. This is a result of the various glycosylation of the different plasma proteins. Since fructosamine behaves similar to total protein for hypo- and hyperproteinemia, a good relationship with the total protein is expected for normoproteinemia. Hence, no erroneous high nor low fructosamine values are obtained. Dysproteinemia at normal total protein concentration causes no erroneous fructosamine values with the exception of some illnesses. Therefore, a direct relationship between protein and fructosamine at normoproteinemia is not generally necessary.
