The correlation of electrophoretic migration behavior in free-flow zone electrophoresis (FFZE) and electrophoretic titration curve (ETC) has been explored. It is shown that the ETC of a protein or a mixture of proteins can be used to predict the fraction numbers at which those proteins elute in a preparative scale FFZE experiment. The ETC is a quick and effective way to choose optimal buffer conditions in FFZE. FFZE is employed to determine the isoelectric points (pI) of proteins whose pIs lie beyond the range of IEF 3-9 gels. It is found that separations in FFZE are governed by the net surface charge of the proteins.
