Abstract

Agarose gel electrophoresis has been used to separate the complex mixture of wheat gluten polymers into fractions ranging in M(r), determined by dynamic light scattering, from about 500 000 to over 5x106. The separation is reliable and reproducible and well suited to the routine analysis of multiple samples. Copyright (C) 1998 Federation of European Biochemical Societies.
