The SAS-1 SP-24 Kit is intended for the separation of proteins by electrophoresis.
The SAS-1 SP-24 Kit separates serum proteins into 5 main classes (albumin, alpha-1 globulin, alpha-2 globulin, beta-globulin, and gamma globulin) according to charge in an agarose gel. Then proteins are then stained to allow visualisation and quantitative interpretation. Each of the classical electrophoretic zones, with the exception of albumin, normally contains 2 or more components. The relative proportions of these fractions have proven to be useful aids in the diagnosis and prognosis of certain desease states.
