Analysis of serum proteins and cerebrospinal fluid in clinically normal horses, using agarose electrophoresis

American Journal of Veterinary Research
F Kristensen, E C Firth

Abstract

Using agarose as a supporting matrix, electrophoresis was conducted on 50 serum samples and 20 cerebrospinal fluid samples from clinically normal horses (n = 50) of various ages and breeds. The technique was shown to be reliable. A positive correlation between age and gamma-globulin concentration was found in young horses. Features of the electrophoretograms of serum and cerebrospinal fluid samples are discussed, and a nomenclature based on Rf values is proposed.
