Edestin, a major hempseed storage protein from Cheungsam, was isolated to apparent homogeneity by acid precipitation and gel filtration chromatography. The native molecular weight of purified edestin was approximately 300 kDa by Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration. Upon adding 2mercaptoethanol, the isolated edestin of 56.7 kDa on the non-reduced sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel was converte...

Invertase inhibitor was extracted from potato tubers and purified nearly 1000-fold. The purification procedure involved precipitation at pH 4.0, fractionation with ammonium sulfate, adsorption on alumina Cgamma gel, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and DEAE-Sephadex A-50. The product obtained was homogeneous to electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel. Exclusion chromatography on Sephadex G-10...

The purification of extracellular endopolygalacturonase (endo-PG) from the filtrate of Aspergillus awamori L1 submerged culture was carried out using a two-step procedure: enzyme precipitation by organic solvents, polymers or salts; and gel filtration using Sephadex G-75 column. The results show that ammonium sulfate was the suitable precipitant in the two-step procedure for endo-PG purificatio...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the type of enzymes involved in tumor-associated fibrinolysis of the stroma component fibrin in ovarian cancer patients. For this purpose, the high-molecular-mass fibrin degradation products (HMM-XDP) were isolated from malignant ascitic fluid by protamine sulfate precipitation and further purified by gel filtration and acid precipitation. After reduction w...

The 3 rapid screening methods studied all involved chromatography of partially purified extracts on minicolumns. In one method acetonitrile-water is used to extract aflatoxin from corn and a lead acetate precipitation removes impurities from the extracts. The second method specifies acetone-water as the extracting solvent and ammonium sulfate as the precipitant. The third method is based on ace...

Haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS) vaccine which is prepared in Razi Institute is used in endemic areas ofIran. Aluminum-hydroxide gel was used as adjuvant for preparing this vaccine. Post-vaccinal shock reactionswere the main complaint after use of this vaccine. In a previous study, we could improve the vaccine byalum-precipitation Pasteurella multocida cells and removing the liquid phase. In this ...

Two enzyme forms of alkaline phosphatase have been partially purified from the medium spent for the culture of HUH-6 clone 5 cells, which were originally derived from hepatoblastoma tissue. The purification methods used are ammonium sulfate precipitation, ethanol precipitation, diethylaminoethyl cellulose chromatography, Affi-Gel Blue chromatography, and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration. These alk...
