Figure 1From: Growth-differentiation factor-8 (GDF-8) in the uterus: its identification and functional significance in the golden hamster2D separation of proteins in hamster 72 h post coital uterine fluid. Proteins in uterine fluid were separated by 2D-electrophoresis (Number of animals = 9). The gel was stained with silver nitrate and spots picked, digested with trypsin and analyzed by MALDI-TOF. Eight protein spots of interest were identified (marked in red circle and enlarged in inserts).Back to article page
