Abstract: | - 1.1. Porcine α-foetoprotein, APP, was isolated from serum of pig foetuses using preparative electrophoresis and irnmunosorbent techniques.
- 2.2. The purity of the isolated AFP was controlled by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, electro-immunoassay and by injection of isolated AFP into rabbits.
- 3.3. During the preparation of AFP from foetal pig serum an unexpected α1-globulin appeared as a contaminating protein.
- 4.4. The molecular weight, isoelectric point and sedimentation coefficient were found to be 70,000, 4–61 and 4–56 respectively. No microheterogeneity as regards the physicochemical parameters investigated could be seen. The results were compared with those reported for some other mammals.
