  • Preparative two dimensional gel electrophoresis system
    Patent number: 5534121
    Abstract: A preparative two dimensional gel electrophoresis system which serves as a single procedure for separation and isolation of preparative amounts of proteins from complex biological preparations. The system includes sized-up isoelectric focusing tube gels and slab gel molds which allow for sample loads of between about 0.5 and 2 mg or greater. Increased protein loads, resolution and electrotransfer allow for subsequent sequencing of separated proteins by conventional methods.
