โฆ Synopsis
A solvent system consisting of low-boiling organic solvents and ammonium hydroxide effectively separated iodoamino acids of the thyroid on Sephadex LH-20 gel filtration columns. The iodoamino acids were eluted from the column in a sequence unrelated to their molecular weights suggesting that adsorptive properties of the dextran gel rather than gel exclusion effects governed the elution volume of the compounds.
The eluted iodoamino acids were recovered in a pure form by low-temperature evaporation of the solvents at reduced pressure. Good recovery of iodoamino acids from the column was obtained and reproducibility of column performance was satis-'factory.

tography is not satisfactory for isolation of urinary BAIB. The method'of SAINI~~, although utilising three runs, appears to be the method of choice, since it avoids losses and inconvenience of the desalting procedure.
The selectivity of gel chromatographic separation of oligomers and low-molecular-weight compounds can be remarkably increased by the appropriate application of sorption effects. Effective fractionation of oligomers is achieved in systems where only the end groups of molecules are sorbed strongly on
