Abstract
THE fractionation of serum proteins with the aid of quaternary ammonium compounds has met with difficulties, because the detergent/protein ratio must be maintained at a very constant level1. We have shown that this is no longer necessary if ‘Desogen’ (methylphenyl dodecyltrimethyl-ammonium-methosulphate, Geigy S.A., Basle) is used. Separation into at least four components can be performed by the following method.
