Sample handling and preparation techniques associated with HPIEC of proteins and peptides, are critical to the success of the separation. The field of sample preparation for biopolymer. separation has been reviewed by Wehr (6) and Majors (7). Further details can be found in works by Suelter (8), Brewer, Pesce and Ashworth (9) and in the subject indexes of Methods in Enzymology (10).

In order to integrate further some of the various reactions mentioned, and to detect its presence by other methods, the vessels of the rat s mesoappendix were employed as a test object (Chambers-Zweifach preparation, 12). A good correlation between the presence of a vasoexcitor material-like substance in the extracts and the presence of hypertension was found. When the whole rat was used for assay, a much cruder index, sizable quantities of active pressor material were isolated from the blood only of those patients showing at least a degree of renal impairment (lessened ability to concentrate urine, etc.). In general it may be stated unequivocally that patients with severe hypertension have in their arterial blood extractable substances which are pressor for the rat there are less or undemonstrable amounts in blood of less severe or neurogenic hypertensive patients there is little or none in blood of normotensive subjects a vasoexcitor material-like activity is exerted by blood from most hypertensive patients adenyl compounds, having a depressor action, present in extracts of blood are less prevalent in those from hypertensive patients the active rat pressor material (pherentasin) is probably aminelike in nature, is not a protein, but may be a simple peptide or an amine.
