Abstract
A process for the separation and isolation of AHF and fibronectin from blood plasma by adding a sulfated mucopolysaccharide to blood plasma to a concentration of 0.15-0.25 mg/ml of plasma, cooling the plasma to 0.degree. C.-15.degree. C. centrifuging the plasma to isolate a precipitate which forms and then removing the AHF-rich supernatant liquid from the precipitate. The precipitate is washed in a slightly basic solution of dilute salts and then dissolved in a buffered solution of chaotrophic salts of the Hofmeister series having an ionic strength from 0.01-1. Fibronectin is then separated, by chromotographic means, from the dissolved precipitate, which contains fibronectin and fibrinogen. In a preferred embodiment, 0.20 mg of sodium heparin per milliliter of human plasma is employed with the heparinized plasma solution cooled for 3 hours at a temperature of 2.degree. C.-4.degree. C.
