## Abstract A method for drying polyacrylamide slab gels of various size and gel composition (T 7.5β15 %, C 2.67 %) is described. The destained gels, containing glycerol, are overlayered with gelatin and dried. Transparent and flexible sheets are obtained which can be stored for extended periods an

dling and storage. The overall quality ofthe second-dimension gel is improved by eliminating the dark carrier ampholyte streak at the front of the basic end of the gel as well as the SDS-Triton artifact at the acidic end. The degree of protein resolution is essentially identical for the two techniqu
## Polyacrylamide gels may be destained either electrophoretically (e.g., 1, 2) or by simple diffusion destaining in which gels are soaked in media (most commonly) of 7.5% acetic acid (3-5). Maurer ( 6) gives a concise appraisal of the advantages and disadvantages of both methods. Electrophoretic
The suitability of fluorography for the detection of 3H- and 14C-labeled proteins on polyacrylamide gradient gels has been investigated. It was found that the absorbance of the fluorographic film image produced by a given level of radioactivity decreased as the acrylamide concentration in the gel in
