About Urine Protein by Agarose Gel Electrophoresis

Urine Protein Electrophoresis is a well-established technique routinely used in clinical laboratories to detect and quantify monoclonal components as Bence Jones proteins (Monoclonal Free Light Chains in urine) or other proteinuria disorder.

Key benefits

Urine Protein by Gel Electrophoresis : The most complete portfolio for in-depth proteinuria & kidney disorder assessment.

Good agarose gel urine proteins separation
in 5 zone proteins indicate by software (from Albumin, to Gamma).
Clear band visualization
for qualitative and relative quantitative analysis for reliable interpretation of proteinuria screening.
Complete semi-automated
HYDRASYS 2 SCAN FOCUSING system including sample application, electrophoretic migration, staining, destaining and scanning connected to PHORESIS Software for interpretation, data & result management.

Main characteristics

Test principle

Based on zone electrophoresis separation on agarose gel.

Sample type

Urine

Performances

Sensitivity

Monoclonal protein limit detection is 2 mg/dL with Hydragel 7/15HR.
According to the position of the monoclonal component and polyclonal background in the gamma zone, the detection limit may vary.
