Serum proteins of Macaca nigra. Identification and changes in nondiabetic and diabetic monkeys

Serum proteins of Macaca nigra were separated by agarose gel electrophoresis. Proteins identified were: albumin, alpha 1-globulin, alpha 2-macroglobulin, haptoglobin, beta 1C-globulin, and gamma 1- and gamma 2-globulins. Diabetic M. nigra had decreased gamma 2-globulin; borderline diabetics had increased beta 3-globulin.
