Abstract
A new procedure for the isolation of proteoglycans has been described. Tissues are extracted with 4 M guanidinium chloride. the extracting solven is then exchanged for 7 M urea and the extract is chromatographed on a DEAE-cellulose column previously equilibrated with 7 M urea. Non-proteoglycan proteins were eluted with urea in weak salt solutions. Subsequently proteoglycans were eluted with strong salt solutions. By the procedure proteoglycans from tissues containing only small amounts of proteoglycans can be obtained virtually free from collagen in a form suitable for further fractionation.
