AIHARA, M., KUDO, I., ISHIGAKI, H., UENO, K., SAWADA, Y., YOSHIDA, Y., COOPER, H.A. & WAGNER, R.H. Two Affinity Immunoelectrophoretic Methods for Studying Collagen Interaction with von Willebrand Factor Antigen. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1987, 153 (2), 169-177-Two new immunoelectrophoretic methods are described for studying the interaction of collagen fibrils with von Willebrand factor antigen (vWF:Ag). In the first, the sample was electrophoresed through a collagen-agarose wedge into an antibody-agarose area, and immunoprecipitin lines was detected by staining. Different immunoprecipitin patterns were obtained with the vWF:Ag of normal plasma, commercial FVIII preparations, and von Willebrand disease (vWD) type ha plasma as the result of collagen binding of vWF:Ag. In the other method, the sample was electrophoresed into agarose for preliminary separation of forms, followed by migration in the second dimension through a collagen spacer gel into an antibody-agarose area. This method demonstrated preferential binding of high molecular weight forms of vWF:Ag in normal plasma and slight binding of the lower molecular weight forms of antigen found in vWD type ha plasma. The affinity wedge method is a convenient general method for finding quickly a useful concentration of affinity reagent.
