| Abstract: | A method for electroelution of protein fractions from polyacrylamide gel and device for performing such a process have been developed. The application of two tris-glycine buffers with the low and high ionic strength, pH 9.0-9.2 provides a concentration of protein simultaneously to extraction from the gel. The duration of elution is in the range of 1-3 hours and depends on the protein mobility. The effectiveness of the system is demonstrated for disc-electrophoretic separation and electrophoresis in slab gel in the presence of SDS. The maximal amount of pure protein fraction obtained is about 4.5-5.0 mg. The method may be useful especially for the fractionation of limited quantities of protein samples. |
