  • Title: Haptoglobin phenotyping by polyacrylamide gel isoelectric focusing and its application to simultaneous typing of serum proteins.
    Author: Fukuda M, Tamaki Y, Kishida T.
    Journal: Z Rechtsmed; 1988; 101(1):37-40. PubMed ID: 3218386.
    Abstract:
    A simple isoelectric focusing method for haptoglobin (HP) typing is described. Serum was pretreated first with C. perfringens neuraminidase (CPN) and then with dithiothreitol (DTT). The treated serum was subjected to polyacrylamide gel isoelectric focusing (PAGIF), and the band patterns were detected by immunoblotting. The method could be successfully applied to HP typing of bloodstains as old as 2 months. A slight modification of it enabled HP, complement component C81, and factor I (IF) to be typed simultaneously. The immunoblotting facilitated preservation of HP patterns. Thus, the PAGIF method for HP typing is suitable for routine use in the forensic laboratory.
