Abstract

The use of electrophoretic methodologies for use in qualitative and preparative purposes are commonly used in biological research and have been well established as an integral analytical tool for a long time in most research laboratories. Listed here are some of the more specialized innovations that have been developed in recent times for special purposes of study. These include micropreparative isoelectric focusing in liquid suspension, accelerated protease digestion by SDS-PAGE, two-dimensional SDS-PAGE for membrane protein resolution, carbon nanotube-modified page for resolution of complement C3, electrophoretic resolution of ultra-acidic proteomes in acidic media, and two-dimensional immunoelectrophoresis of pre-beta/alpha lipoprotein A-I in agarose. All these methods are briefly reviewed in this chapter.
