Elektrophoretische Untersuchungen des Myoglobins des Menschen

Electrophoretic investigations of human myoglobin

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für die gesamte experimentelle Medizin einschließlich experimentelle Chirurgie

Summary

  1. I.

    On Cyanogum (Polyacrylamid) human myoglobin can be seperated in five fractions.

  2. II.

    The mean value of the different fractions is53, 26, 14, 5 and 2%.

  3. III.

    Myoglobin from human heart and skeletal musculature appears to be identical.

  4. IV.

    There are no spectrophotometric or electrophoretic differences between the myoglobin of adults, newborn children or human fetuses. The existence of a “fetal myoglobin” can not be demonstrated with the methods employed.

Zusammenfassung

  1. I.

    Auf Polyacrylamid kann menschliches Cyan-Met-Myoglobin in fünf Fraktionen getrennt werden.

  2. II.

    Die Konzentration der einzelnen Fraktionen beträgt im Mittel 53, 26, 14, 5 und 2% der Gesamtchromoproteinkonzentration.

  3. III.

    Das Myoglobin, gewonnen aus dem Herz- und Skeletmuskel erwachsener Menschen, ist identisch.

  4. IV.

    Es bestehen keine spektralen oder elektrophoretischen Unterschiede zwischen dem Myoglobin erwachsener Menschen, neugeborener Kinder und menschlicher Feten. Es kann somit die Existenz eines „fetalen Myoglobins“ nicht nachgewiesen werden.
