title: Simplified sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of unconcentrated urine with enhanced resolution and detection sensitivity.
abstract: We applied a simple sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis method to urine. The method, developed for serum protein analysis (Clin Chem 1984;30:475-9), has a high sample throughput and gives excellent resolution with unconcentrated urine. It clearly distinguishes and characterizes proteinuric urine (7.5 microL) by Coomassie Blue staining and gives complex silver-stained patterns with nonproteinuric urine (2 microL). The former is recommended for routine clinical screening, the latter for research purposes.
