Abstract
DURING some recent investigations (Cooper, D. R., and Johnson, P., unpublished work), the protein components present in neutral or slightly alkaline extracts of bovine hide were compared with those of bovine serum by paper electrophoresis. For these comparisons a borate buffer (pH = 8.6, I = 0.05)1 was used, and the papers were treated with bromophenol blue to detect the protein bands2.
