Abstract
The electrophoretic fractionation of the various compounds of the soluble proteins in the cyst wall (CW), cyst fluid (CF) and zoites (ZT) of the sarcocyst of Sarcocystis fusiformis from buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) was studied by polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. The CW fraction was found to contain at least six components, and ZT and CF contained at least four components with varied Rf values. Each gel was subjected to the gel scanner, and the corresponding areas of the peaks along with the percentage of the proteins in the bands were calculated.
