Globulin
Globulins are a group of proteins including immunoglobulins (antibodies), complement proteins, and transport proteins. Elevated globulin often indicates chronic inflammation, autoimmune conditions, or chronic infection.
The Albumin/Globulin (A/G) ratio is clinically significant — a low ratio may indicate overproduction of globulins (myeloma, autoimmune) or underproduction of albumin (liver disease).
What It Measures
Total globulin proteins in blood (calculated: total protein minus albumin).
Reference Ranges

| Normal | 2.0–3.5 g/dL |
| Borderline | 3.5–4.0 g/dL |
| Out of Range | > 4.0 g/dL or < 1.5 g/dL |
