title: Analytical gradient polyacrylamide gel-crossed line immunoelectrophores. A technique for locating species specific Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RV antigens in polyacrylamide gel columns.
abstract: Analytical gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of antigens from Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RV was combined with crossed line immunoelectrophoresis to locate the position of antigens in polyacrylamide gel columns that appeared to be specific for M. tuberculosis H37RV. Specificity was established by comparing H37RV with M. kansaii CE in the electrophoretic procedure and the relative mobility (Rm) values are being used in an effort to recover and enrich specific antigens from preparative gel columns. Such fractions should be more suitable in efforts to recover purified monospecific components from M. tuberculosis H37RV.
