Gel Electrophoretic Detection of Black Market ACE‐031

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
This article presents a study on black market ACE‐031 products and their detection by gel‐electrophoresis and Western blotting. Of the 14 tested products, only 12 contained an ACVR2B‐immunoreactive protein. However, mass spectrometry revealed that the products did not contain the ACVR2B‐Fc fusion protein ACE‐031 but instead the full‐length human ...
