Protein electrophoresis is a well-established technique routinely used in clinical laboratories for screening samples for protein abnormalities (gammopathies, inflammatory pattern…). On the HYDRASYS instruments, utilizing the HYDRAGEL β1-β2 assay gels, serum proteins are separated into 6 major fractions:
- Albumin
- Alpha-1
- Alpha-2
- Beta-1
- Beta-2
- Gamma
