1. Quantitative precipitin studies indicate that progressive photo-oxidation progressively destroys the antigenic function of egg albumin. 2. Quantitative precipitin reactions of antisera (anti-egg albumin rabbit serum and antipneumococcus Type I horse serum) demonstrate that progressive photo-oxidation causes progressive lowering of the potency of the sera. 3. Quantitative precipitin reactions...

The plasma protein pattern of patients with uncomplicated essential hypertension showed only slight variations from the normal while that of patients with severely malignant hypertension showed marked shifts. The fibrinogen and beta-globulins were usually elevated beyond the normal range and the albumin decreased. In less severely malignant hypertension, the changes were less marked. In dogs wi...

T FIAT VITAMIN B12 IN SERUM is l)ound to protein14 has been known since shortly after the isolation of the vitamin. Endogenous vitamin B12 (which may be mainly methyl-Bi2) is bound primarily to an a1-globulin 2.6-10 hut vitamin B12 added to serum in vitro hinds primarily to -globuun (presumably because B12-binding a-globulin is normally almost saturated with endogenous vitamin B12).61#{176} hal...

Lysine-epsilon-C(14)-labeled plasma proteins produced by the normal rat and the isolated perfused rat liver have been fractionated by preparative zone electrophoresis. The isolated perfused liver incorporates lysine-epsilon-C(14) into the plasma albumin, alpha globulin, and beta globulin (including fibrinogen) fractions. No significant C(14) incorporation into the trichloracetic acid-precipitab...

Widely differing results were obtained for urinary protein determinations in male rats using 2 test strips and a quantitative Coomassie Blue sodium dodecyl sulphate method. A comparison of the sensitivity of the protein methods with respect to rat albumin and alpha 2U globulin was made; both test strips were found to be relatively insensitive to the presence of alpha 2U globulin. Resultant limi...

were determined in the cord blood of 75 African and 10 European babies born in Zambia, and in the venous blood of 5 pregnant African women at term. When the high y-globulin fraction was excluded, there was no significant difference between the pattern of serum proteins of the Africans and the Europeans at birth. Present evidence favours the view that the high serum y-globulin and low albumin of...
