Esterases of the flounder (Platichthys flesus, Pleuronectidae, Teleostei) : development of an identification protocol using starch gel electrophoresis and characterization of loci [PDF]
Fish esterases are among the most difficult enzymes to identify using starch gel electrophoresis because of the many loci that are simultaneously active, and especially because of duplication phenomena, satellite bands, and stain trails. In an attempt to
