Western blotting analysis of recombinant equine chorionic gonadotropin (rec-eCG). The proteins in the conditioned media were collected and concentrated 5–10-fold. The rec-eCG samples were resolved using sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and blotted onto a membrane. The proteins were detected using anti-myc-tag and horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG antibodies. The proteins were treated with peptide-N-glycanase F to remove N-linked oligosaccharides and subjected to western blotting.
