Figure 1

Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the cell-free plasma from hypertensive and normotensive subjects. Cell-free plasma (CFP) was prepared from the blood samples of hypertensive and normotensive subjects and electrophorosed in SDS-polyacrylamide. The protein band was stained by Coomassie brilliant blue as described in Section 2. The arrow indicates the position of 11 kDa protein band. The figure represents the typical gel electrophoresis of the CFP from at least 10 different hypertensive and normotensive subjects.
