Newborns have lower concentrations of certain serum protein fractions than do
those children at age 1-2 years, and significant increases in estrogen-sensitive protein
fractions are recognized in pregnancy. The acrylamide-gel vertical-slab electrophoretic
technic requires minimal aliquots of serum and technically is not expensive. This
technic appeared potentially useful in longitudinal comparisons of increasing protein
fractions during infancy and as a screening test for absence of the normal gestational
increases in estrogen-sensitive protein fractions in the
1-to
2-globulin zone.
