Five ml of the pooled morphogen eluted in the peak fractions from the HIC resin (fractions 2-5 from Fig. 1) was diluted and chromatographed on Trisacryl-DEAE. Elution from the DEAE was performed with a gradient of increasing NaCI concentration (inset) as described in Materials and Methods. Frac- tions of 5 ml were collected; ml of each fraction was assayed for morphogemc activity (solid line). Ahsorbance at 212 nm is shown (dashed line

We found that the HIC-resin-bound morphogen (prepared from the chromatographically purified mor- phogen) can be attached to surfaces with a waterproof silicone adhesive, without significant loss of activity.
