Summary Introduction
Introduction:
There are various proteins present in the plasma, which maintain the viscosity of blood and control the blood pressure. Examples of plasma proteins are globular protein, albumin, and fibrinogen. The plasma proteins are not reabsorbed by the filtration membrane; they excrete the plasma protein through urine.
