  • Title: Total and differential serum proteins and globulins in leprosy.
    Author: Kumar B, Sehgal S, Ganguly NK, Kaur S, Chakravarti RN.
    Journal: Lepr India; 1982 Apr; 54(2):263-9. PubMed ID: 7132295.
    Abstract:
    Total and differential serum proteins were estimated in 177 adult male patients and globulins in 135 patients. Total serum proteins were slightly lowered in BB, BL and LL patients. Total albumin was low in all types of leprosy, especially in the BL group. Alpha-1 and alpha-2 fractions were unchanged all through the leprosy spectrum. Beta globulins were significantly lowered in LL patients as compared to the controls. Gamma globulins were elevated in all types of leprosy more so in BB, BL and LL patients. Details are presented.
