Notes:
An apparatus and the procedure for cellulose acetate isoelectric focusing were refined and optimized for routine use in clinical laboratories. The space in the electrophoretic chamber was minimized to maintain high humidity during the run. The water content of the thin cellulose acetate membranes in the chamber was well controlled during isoelectric focusing and the effect of atmospheric carbon dioxide was also excluded. The temperature of the membranes was kept below 2 °C, even under conditions of high electric field strength for faster isoelectric focusing of high-molecular-weight proteins. No special training was required for technicians in clinical laboratories to obtain reproducible isoelectric profiles of human serum proteins.
