Comparison of elution patterns of proteins chromatographed on controlled-pore glass and carboxymethyl-cellulose
Abstract:
As controlled-pore glass (CPG) has anionic silanol groups, we compared the elution patterns of proteins chromatographed on CPG with those on carboxymethyl (CM)-cellulose using standard proteins and two protein mixtures, rabbit serum and bovine parotid extracts. The results showed that the order of proteins eluted from CPG was similar to that from CM-cellulose, although some differences were found. The adsorption of proteins on CPG was slightly stronger than that on CM-cellulose and the separation of proteins on CPG was slightly better. Some conditions, such as amounts of proteins loaded on the column, pH, temperature and kind of buffer solution for elution, were investigated. The pH of buffer solutions was important in the adsorption chromatography of proteins on CPG and the useful pH range was 7.0-8.5.

SDS-PAGE
A variation of gel electrophoresis, termed polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), is commonly used for separating proteins according to their molecular size by passing them through a polyacrylamide gel. Because of the varying charges associated with amino acid side chains, PAGE can be used to separate intact proteins...
Two-dimensional Gel Electrophoresis
The first dimension separation uses the isoelectric focusing or IEF technique performed on immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips that separate proteins according to their isoelectric points.
