The effective hydrodynamic (Stokes) radii of fifteen serum proteins were estimated by Sephadex G 200 gel filtration and immunochemical methods. The Waldmann-Meyer and Birch equation (Protides Biol. Fluids, Proc. 21st Colloq. (1974) (Peeters, H., ed.), Vol. 21, pp. 653-656, Pergamon Press, Oxford) was used for maximum accuracy. Three replicate column runs were made to assess the precision for the size determinations (coefficients of variation 0.6-2.7(). Quantive two-dimensional immunoelectrophoresis was used to measure eleven proteins in specimens of serum and amniotic fluid collected from twelve normal pregnancies. There was a close inverse linear relationship between the amniotic fluid/serum ratios of the proteins and their Stokes radii. This indicates that the movement of a protein from the blood to amniotic fluid is determined by the size of the protein. The linear correlation of protein amniotic fluid/serum ratio with Stokes radius was better than that with molecular weight. This demonstrates that, as an expression of protein size, Stokes radius should be used in preference to molecular weight when protein filtration systems are being investigated.
