Abstract: | Kallikreins and kallikrein-like enzymes make up a family of serine proteinases present in tissues and body fluids of mammals and in some snake venoms. This review deals with the procedures of purification, detection and determination of these enzymes by chromatographic and electrophoretic methods. The procedures are reported in tables, described and discussed with the aim of illustrating the state-of-the-art of research in the field. |
