Equipment:
dialysis cells :
Six different types from Scienceware (Bel-Art Prod. USA)
A equilibrium microvolume dialyzer from Hoefer Sci.Instr. 654 Minnesota Str.
box 77387, San Francisco, CA 94107-0387. fax 415-821-1081

Our results:
good and reproducible results using both radioactive and dye binding agents.
