Modifications to antibody affinity electrophoresis for improved detection of proteins have been developed. The bifunctional linker glutaralclehyde is added to the polyacrylamide gel solution for better incorporation of the bait antibody into a distinct region of a 10% w/v polyacrylamide gel. The addition of glutaralclehyde alleviates the need of an electrophoresis buffer with a specific pH. The protein sample to be analyzed is treated with 2% w/v sodium dodecyl sulfate (SIDS) to ensure that they carry a negative charge. The negative charge will allow the proteins to migrate towards the cathode and hence pass through the area embedded with the bait antibody. It is observed that electrophoretic migration of bovine serum albumin (BSA) or protein G ceases upon encounter with anti-BSA whereas proteins ovalbumin, beta-lactoglobulin A, and myoglobin migrate freely. However, the addition of 0.1% w/v SIDS in the native gel running buffer disrupts the anti body-antigen bond and neither BSA nor protein G can be captured by anti-BSA.
