| Application: | A phosphorylated glycoprotein which is useful as a marker (~45 kDa) for protein electrophoresis. Has been used to produce an animal model of asthma. |
| Application: | Albumin from chicken egg white has also been used to investigate the effects of infusion fluids (colostrum whey, milk whey, amniotic fluid) on ovalbumin (OVA) absorption in fetal pig intestine. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Albumin from chicken egg white serves as a natural adhesive. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Differential scanning calorimetry indicates that the chicken egg albumin denatures at 84 °C. Ovalbumin can be used as a carrier protein to conjugate to synthetic peptides for use as an immunogen. |
