Abstract
Electrophoretic fractionation of serum from rats starved for varying periods up to 16 days and subsequently rehabilitated was performed. There was a fall in the albumin, <i>α- </i>and <i>β</i>-globulin with no changes in the total protein and <i>γ</i>-globulin concentrations during starvation. During rehabilitation there was an initial fall in the total serum protein and <i>γ</i>-globulin, accompanied by an increase in the <i>α</i>- and <i>β</i>-globulin concentrations. The varying changes in serum protein concentrations cannot be entirely explained by alterations in plasma volume.
