(565b) The Importance of Electrophoresis In Protein Analysis: From Sandefjord and Wild Dunes to Minneapolis
AIChE Annual Meeting
2011
2011 Annual Meeting
2011 Annual Meeting of the American Electrophoresis Society (AES)
Award Session of the American Electrophoresis Society In Honor of Kelvin Lee
Wednesday, October 19, 2011 - 3:45pm to 4:15pm
The development of technologies to facilitate the electrophoretic separation of proteins can rely on fundamental principles of chemical engineering. In addition, there are a wide variety of applications of protein electrophoresis which can begin to address important problems in bioprocess engineering and biomedical engineering. This presentation will review a series of research efforts that begin with protein analysis technologies and include applications of two-dimensional protein electrophoresis in the diagnosis and understanding of neurodegenerative disease. An overarching theme is the impact of American Electrophoresis Society members and meetings on these efforts.
