✦ Synopsis

The Shandon Southern preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis apparatus was modified to permit use with SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) containing systems. Improvements include the elimination of the troublesome lower gel and modification of the elution plate to prevent localized high current densities and band overlapping. Separations were performed on the two subunits of Electrophorus electroplax Na+ + K+-ATPase, the erythrocyte membrane protein Spectrin, and the tryptic fragments of rabbit white skeletal muscle Ca*+ + Mg*+-ATPase.
