A decrease in the number of binding sites for125I-transferrin, without an apparent modification of the association constant, has been observed during the maturation of reticulocytes into erythrocytes. As an experimental model, different red cell populations from phenylhydrazinic anaemic rates (95% to 12% reticulocyte-rich) have been used. The fractionation by multiple partition in two-phase systems of these red cell populations has been applied here to show the relationship between number of transferrin receptors and rate of reticulocyte maturation.

An increase in bisphosphoglycerate mutase (BPGM) and a decrease in pyruvate kinase (PK), i.e. a decrease in PK/BPGM ratio, was observed in red cell populations from anemic rats containing 95% down to 3% reticulocytes in blood. Such a ratio has been used to study the fractionation of recticulocytes, according to their degree of maturation, after counter-current distribution of those cell populations in dextrahpoly (ethylene glycol) two-phase systems. When applying this procedure to the fractionation according to age of erythrocytes from normal rats, the decrease of PK with cellular age was observed without a significant variation in BPGM activity.

Rat sperm isolated from the caput and caudal epididymis and the vas deferens were subjected to multiple partition in aqueous two-phase systems. The technique was used to reveal heterogeneity of a sperm population with respect to particular surface properties. Sperm from all three regions gave broad distributions indicative of heterogeneous cell populations. Greatest heterogeneity was observed for cauda sperm with caput and was sperm producing similar distributions. Following multiple partition sperm from different regions of the distribution profiles were immunostained with three antibodies known to recognise maturation antigens. The results show that some antigens are acquired during epididymal transit whilst others are present throughout. The partition (surface heterogeneity) seen cannot therefore be explained solely by the distribution of the antigens recognised by 2D6, 6B2 and 3D5.
