To quantify saccharified albumin, it is intended to provide a means of giving quantification data, which correlate to the data of the quantification of saccharified albumin by the HPLC method, without giving any intercept which might disturb the use in clinical medicine in case where regression formula is plotted by using the corrective quantification method with the use of enzymes. Namely, a method of detecting saccharified albumin in the serum by using a reagent for assaying fructosamine, which comprises using a reagent for assaying saccharified proteins by quantifying saccharified proteins in the serum, correcting the value by dividing the thus obtained value by the total albumin content in the serum and referring the thus corrected value as the saccharified albumin content in the serum, wherein use is made, as a saccharified albumin standard, of saccharified albumin obtained from human blood by subjecting an albumin fraction originating in the blood of a normal subject to a treatment for distinguishing saccharified albumin from non-saccharified albumin. |
