| Abstract: | The aim of this paper is to apply inverse regression as a method for treating experimental data obtained from gel filtration chromatography in order to obtain estimates of hydrodynamic parameters of globular proteins with true confidence intervals. The method is illustrated with the determination, using inverse regression, of molecular mass and Stokes radius for four test proteins (aldolase, chymotrypsinogen A, aldehyde oxidase and xanthine oxidase), from experimental data obtained with a Sephacryl S-300 column. A simple personal computer (PC) program written in standard basic, that is useful for this purpose, is included. |
