title: Simultaneous phenotyping of erythrocyte acid phosphatase and esterase D by nonequilibrium agarose isoelectric focusing.
abstract: Nonequilibrium agarose isoelectric focusing in a pH 4.5-7 gradient with 3-(N-morpholinopropanesulfonic acid (MOPS) and taurine as chemical separators presents a fast, easy and reliable method for the simultaneous determination of the common erythrocyte acid phosphatase and esterase D phenotypes in hemolysates and dried bloodstains. The application of the method to experimental and casework bloodstains is described.
