The applications of isoelectric focusing in immobilized pH gradients in clinical chemistry and forensic analysis are reviewed. Strong emphasis is given to the separation of serum proteins, in particular alpha 1-acidic glycoprotein, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, alpha 1-antitrypsin, apolipoproteins, complement component, factor B, factor XIIIB, group-specific component, lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase, phosphoglucomutase, prealbumin, protein C and transferrin. The analysis of human parotid salivary proteins is discussed and an assessment is given of the state of the art in thalassaemia screening.
