Abstract
AFTER paper electrophoresis at pH 8.6 in a veronal-sodium buffer of a purified bovine hypophysial thyrotropic hormone preparation, the hormonal activity was found to move with the same speed as the β-globulins of human serum under similar conditions. The thyrotropic hormone assay was carried out by the iodine-131 accumulation test in mice treated with iodocasein1.
