g/dL

Beta globulins are a group of globular proteins in serum that move in the beta-fraction during electrophoresis. This fraction consists mainly of Transferrin (beta-1) and Complement C3 (beta-2). It is measured to evaluate nutritional status, iron transport, and immune system function.

Why Context Matters

Hemolysis of the blood sample can artificially increase the beta-fraction. In liver cirrhosis, the beta and gamma regions may merge (beta-gamma bridging), making precise quantification difficult.

Lab ranges are statistical averages, not biological laws. "Normal" for a 20-year-old male isn't normal for a 60-year-old female.
