Recently we have reported on a hitherto unknown modification of human serum albumin of which the outstanding properties are electrophoretic homogeneity at pH 4.0 and its transformation to an electrophoretically heterogeneous form (2). In continuation of this study, the question was asked whether the ordinary human serum albumin (Fraction V), known to bc electrophoretically heterogeneous at pH 4...

The frequent occurrence of protein anomalies in patients with myelomatosis has long been recognized. Bence Jones reported on the unusual urinary protein of a patient with this disease over a hundred years ago (Bence Jones, 1848). Hyperproteinaemia in myelomatosis was recorded somewhat later (Ellinger, 1899). Subsequently, electrophoretic studies have shown that the hyperproteinaemia is due to t...

conclusions people with a poor sleep quality had a higher bmi, waist circumference and serum triglyceride levels and a lower hdl-c concentration. furthermore, bmi and serum triglyceride concentration are independently associated with the score of sleep quality. indeed, it is recommended for people to screen for sleep quality to start necessary interventions. background several studies have show...

GAMMAGLOBULINEMlA and extreme hypogam; maglobulinemia occur as concomitants of 'yeral human diseases. Depression of the serum ~roma glob~ concentration may occur be~use of loss of protein from the body, generaled failure of protein fabrication, inordinately . id destruction of serum protein, or because of -isolated deficit in gamma globulin synthesis, n the nephrotic syndrome, for example, hypo...

background: endometriosis is defined as the existence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus. diagnosis of endometriosis is a challenging theme. despite the broad search for innovative laboratory tests and advances in imaging technologies, there are still no easy, non-invasive diagnostic tests available. due to inflammatory process of endometriosis, still c-reactive protein (crp) level m...

BACKGROUND Serum electrophoretic profiles in cats are poorly characterized with respect to the proteins that comprise the globulin fractions, and interpretation of the electrophoretograms is routinely done in the absence of information about identity of the proteins found within each fraction. OBJECTIVES The aims of this study were to compare protein fractions separated by serum protein elect...

For a number of years the lipoproteins of serum have been classified as alpha and beta types according to their electrophoretic mobility. Despite this designation very few studies of their electrophoretic properties have been reported. This is chiefly due to the fact that it is very difficult to determine exactly where the lipoproteins migrate when patterns of whole serum are obtained by the cl...

We previously reported that proper dilution of sera that contain IgG monoclonal proteins (M-proteins) is necessary for accurate quantitation of serum albumin and M-protein concentrations separated by serum protein electrophoresis (SPE) using the Beckman PARAGON agarose electrophoresis system. We now report the significance of pre-electrophoretic serum dilution for M-protein quantitation of sera...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the serum lipid and protein profile as well liver enzyme levels in neonatal calves with diarrhea. included 40 calves, 30 diarrhea 10 healthy (control). Calves were divided into three groups based on clinical findings: mild, moderate, severe. Blood samples taken from vena jugularis after routine examinations determine profile, levels, glucose levels. ...
