This laboratory test separates and analyzes different proteins in a body fluid sample, such as urine or cerebrospinal fluid, using an electrical field and a specialized electrophoresis technique to produce a detailed pattern showing the types and relative amounts of specific proteins present. It is a more advanced technique than a basic protein separation test and is used to investigate certain immune or protein-related conditions.
