Abstract

The consumption of toxic groundnut meal by swine leads to marked alterations in their electrophoretic serum patterns. Experiments carried out by chemical assays and by the moving boundary electrophoretic method of Tiselius and Smithies' starch gel electrophoresis showed a relative decrease in the albumin, alpha1-, alpha2-, and beta globulins, while gamma globulin appeared to be considerably increased.
