Understanding Urine Albumin. Page Content. Albumin (al-BYOO-min) is a protein found in the blood. A healthy kidney does not let albumin pass into the urine. A damaged kidney lets some albumin pass into the urine. The less albumin in your urine, the better.
Albumin makes up the largest proportion of blood plasma proteins. Albumin is manufactured by the liver and is responsible for keeping the fluid pressure level constant in the blood, so that blood continually flows in the bloodstream rather than seeping into surrounding tissues.
