title: [Isolation of beta2-microglobulin from human colostrum (author's transl)].
abstract: The beta2-microglobulin from human colostrum was purified by a combination of ordinary protein-chemical techniques: gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography and zone electrophoresis. The procedure is organized in such a way that the simultaneous isolation of many other milk proteins is possible. The beta2-microglobulin obtained from colostrum cannot be distinguished by physical-chemical or immunological means from the beta2-microblobulin isolated from the urine of patients with kidney-tubule diseases. At the beginning of lactation, human milk contains significantly more than 10 mg/-100 ml beta2-microglobulin, but the concentration drops within two or three days to 15-30% of the original amount.
