title: Distribution of protein-bound zinc in serum of analbuminemic rat.
abstract: The distribution of protein-bound zinc in serum of rat with analbuminemia was analyzed with gel filtration and affinity chromatography. From the profiles of chromatography, the zinc present in analbuminemic rat serum is composed of two principal species in similar to that of Sprague-Dawley rat: one fraction is firmly bound to alpha 2-macroglobulin, and a second fraction is more loosely bound to various proteins.
