Separation of cerebrospinal fluid specific proteins -- a methodological study. Part I.

A method for preparative separation of cerebrospinal fluid specific proteins by affinity chromatography and isoelectric focusing is described. It has been tested on CSF from a group of human patients suffering from TIA. The advantage of the method is the production of a protein pattern easy to survey by eye. The sensitivity and reproducibility are adequate, as tested by model experiments described.
