Electrophoresis of urine to evaluate different urinary proteins has been used in recent years veterinary medicine, as it can be a useful laboratory tool the early detection kidney damage. However, capillary electrophoresis (UCE) not reported healthy cats. In dogs, reference intervals have established and compared with pathological samples these provide an easily interpretable pattern. The elect...

ONSIDERABLE TIME AND EFFORT has been devoted to the problem of fractionating serum protein simply, reliably, and rapidly, and at the same time in conformity with the free electrophoretic separation into albumin and a-, fi-, and 7-globulins. Much progress has been made, but discrepancies remain, especially in connection with aand -gIobulins. A few years ago Wolfson, Cohn, et at. (1) devised a re...

Plasma containing carbon(14)-labeled albumin and globulin, obtained by feeding epsilon-C(14)D,L.-lysine to a donor dog, has been injected intravenously and intraperitoneally into recipient dogs with experimental ascites. The circulation and interchange of total plasma protein between circulating blood and ascitic fluid have been confirmed and the participation of both albumin and globulin in th...

This paper describes a rapid and accurate method for determining binding abilities of thyroid hormones to their corresponding serum proteins: prealbumin, albumin and thyroxine binding globulin. A tube cell agarose gel electrophoresis is used with radioactive labelled triiodothyronine or thyroxine. The distribution curve shows characteristic peaks for prealbumin, albumin and thyroxine binding gl...

When haemoglobin is added to human plasma, it is bound through the globin portion of the molecule to an C2-globulin (Jayle, Boussier & Badin, 1952; Nyman, 1959). It has also been suggested that in human sera haemoglobin combines with albumin (Neale, Aber & Northam, 1958) and with a Plglobulin (Neale et al. 1958; Tombs, 1960), but these complexes could not be found by Allison & ap Rees (1957), A...

CLINICAL CHEMISTRY, Vol. 25, No. 4, 1979 643 fled by adding a precalibrated CSF protein scale, generated by use of a diluted commercial lyophilized qualitycontrol serum. We investigated the validity of using lyophilized materials to construct a precalibrated scale for this nephelometric assay. We found that analyses of serial dilutions of quality-control sera showed a linear relationship betwee...
