Abstract
Myoglobin represents the stores of oxygen in muscle tissues. Because of its relatively small mol wt, myoglobin is often used in electrophoretic techniques as a mol wt marker, and also as a test for separation efficiency in capillary electrophoresis (CE). The separation of myoglobin can be accomplished based on mol wt (1), based on charge, or both together (as used here).
