Comparison of the electrophoretograms of normal canine plasma and serum revealed a greater concentration of the beta-3 fraction in plasma due to the presence of fibrinogen. When serum or plasma of haemolysed canine blood was analysed electrophoretically, there was slurring of the beta-globulin peaks due to the presence of free haemoglobin and increases in alpha-2 globulins due to the formation of the haptoglobin-haemoglobin complex.
