Unusual Electrophoretic Patterns of Plasma Proteins in Human Subjects

[摘要] Study of 313 plasma electrophoretic patterns from 158 hospitalized subjects revealed that 30 per cent of these patients exhibited a heterogeneity marked by occurrence of double peaks in the alpha-2 and 6 per cent in the beta globulin fraction. Occurrence of double peaks could not be related to any specific disease. Similar study of plasma from 18 normal adult subjects did not reveal double peaks in any of the protein fractions. Existence of prealbumin components, with mobilities greater than that of the albumin, has been observed in 6 of 158 pathological subjects. Mobilities and concentrations of components x1, x2, and x3 are reported.
