Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 1. Chromatographic analysis of proteins of RLC-310 and HK-2 cell lines using ProteomeLab PF 2D. (A) Chromatofocusing of total proteins in a pH gradient. In the chromatogram, the X-axis corresponds to the retention time in the column, the Y-axis (left) to the pH and the Y-axis (right) to the AU (UV absorbance). (B) Resolution of ProteomeLab PF-2D in a virtual gel given by ProteoVue software. Fifteen fractions were separated in pH gradient 8.5-4.5 and by hydrophobicity. Comparison of two aligned peaks in (A) displayed a quantitative difference in protein content measured by peak area (volume). Color scheme ranged from purple (low absorbance) to red (high absorbance). The difference between absorbencies was shown in the middle as either a red or green band, representing the sample with greater absorbance at a specific peak.
