Date: Fri, 28 Feb 1997 09:33:35 -0700 Organization: University of Washington Lines: 6 Message-ID: NNTP-Posting-Host: orphan.radonc.washington.edu Xref: biosci bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts:55369 bionet.cellbiol:6801 Hi, everybody I run vegf western and use B-mercaptoethanol (freshly added to lysis buiffer at 280-400 mM) as a reducing reagent. Samples were boiled before loading to gel. However, VEGF dimer is always there and showed much strong band than monomer did. Any suggestions are wellcomed. ziping .
