Abstract
Electrospray mass spectrometry has been employed to detect and charact erize the members of a closely related family of immunologically activ e proteins (chemokines) produced in cell culture by stimulated fibrobl asts. The reliability of the method to produce precise data concerning the relative proportions of proteins present in mixtures was investig ated in a model system and found to be satisfactory in a range of 10:1 in concentration.
