Abstract
Serial electrophoretic analyses were made on the serum of an Egyptian patient with severe typhus fever. A marked depression of albumin and of the albumin:globulin ratio and an increase of y globulin were observed on the 4th day of disease. These changes persisted to the last observation which was made on the 53d day. A previously reported correlation between electrophoretic A/G ratio and the salt fractionation A/G ratio was confirmed and extended by the data obtained in this study; the electrophoretic ratio has a value about 2/3 of that obtained by the Howe NaSOi fractionatiou on the same sample.Keywords
