    Abstract:
    Changes in the serum protein patterns accompanying inflammation in young broilers were examined by polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis. Sera were obtained from blood of 4-week-old male broilers after induction of acute inflammation by an injection of 0.5 ml/kg turpentine. Electrophoretic patterns at 48 hr after injection, showed an increase in transferrin (Tf) and a segment containing albumin (Alb) with multiple peaks. The unbound iron binding capacity (UIBC) increased by 10 times, and the serum iron (SI) concentration in acute inflammation was reduced to one-half its initial value. These are considered to be typical changes in serum proteins and iron after acute inflammation.
