Abstract
The biocolloids of normal urine were separated by electrophoresis on starch and compared with similarly prepared fractions of serum by ultracentrifugal, free diffusion, and immunochemical techniques. The albumin fraction of urine was indistinguishable from the serum component. The urinary [gamma]2-globulins were shown to consist of low molecular weight (10,000) fragments of the normal serum components. The other globulins of the urine were anti-genically related to some of the serum components but appeared to contain lower molecular weight materials. Some of the components of normal serum could not be detected in the urine and the urine contained at least 2 components which were not present in the serum.Keywords
