Should hemoglobins be mentioned here? I don't know of hemoglobin that exists outside of red blood cells, and therefore hemoglobin should not be included amongst serum proteins. Gary 21:12, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Heck, I don't know if this article should even exist at all! I've been debating that - I can see the value in listing plasma proteins, but wonder which form it should take (list, etc). Certainly hemoglobin shouldn't be a free plasma protein, but the title of the article really doesn't specify plasma vs. "blood," which would technically include hemoglobin. Obviously the text specifies, but it might be nice to redirect blood protein to a plasma protein page (leaning away from a list) so that we can specify the clinically important aspects.

Article should discuss abnormal blood proteins, e.g. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/protein-in-blood/AN01204. There's no point in measuring these unless we learn something from the information. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.15.255.227 (talk) 22:48, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

What kind of protein?

“haemoglobin is not a blood protein,” as it is carried within red blood cells, rather than in the blood serum. But it IS a protein, so is it a cell protein?120.16.46.142 (talk) 09:32, 27 May 2018 (UTC)MBG
