21. The elution profile shown is for a specific recombinant and may not represent

elution positions of other laminin G domain recombinants. For recombinants
whose elution position is unknown, collected fractions should be analyzed by
SDS-PAGE to determine relative heparin affinities and fractions then pooled.
