PLASMA PROTEIN METABOLISM—ELECTROPHORETIC STUDIES

Plasma Protein Metabolism—electrophoretic Studies

The findings on electrophoretic analysis of plasma proteins during many weeks of low protein feeding in dogs accord in general with those of chemical analysis as concerns the alterations in plasma albumin and globulin concentrations. Long continued restriction of dietary protein results in decreased albumin levels while plasma globulin concentrations remain essentially normal. The degree of dep...

Studies on Plasma Protein. IV. Leprosy

Studies on Plasma Protein. III. Malaria

Two distinct groups of cases were encountered during the study of plasma proteins in malarial patients. One was acute malaria, which showed all the features of an acute febrile infection. The other was chronic relapsing malaria, some cases were inadequately treated, and many had : hepatomegaly and splenomegaly. Plasma proteins of 40 patients, admitted in the hospital, were studied and in all of...

Studies on the measurement of protein S in plasma.

The anticoagulant factor Protein S circulates in two major forms, free and bound to C4b binding protein (C4BP). We report a monoclonal antibody-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of human Protein S that is sensitive (detection limit 30 ng) and free of notable competition from other vitamin K-dependent proteins. We demonstrate assay sensitivity to Protein S-C4BP complex, as well as to free ...
