Clinical and biochemical investigation was performed in 49 patients with epilepsy of different etiology and clinical course, 10 patients with nonepileptic forms of neurologic and psychic disorders and 50 normal subjects. An additional blood serum protein fraction was found in epileptic patients as compared with the normals using the electrophoretic investigation on the acetate-cellulose plates and devices produced by Hélène France company. Additional biochemical study is suggested as a diagnostic tool in epilepsy.
