Additional file 1 of Proteomic profiling of hydatid fluid from pulmonary cystic echinococcosis

Additional file 1: Figure S1. E. granulosus and E. ortleppi HF protein comparison. (A) Correlation between cysts volume and intensity of bovine albumin band. Thirty-four E. granulosus and 29 E. ortleppi HF samples were qualitatively evaluated using 12% SDS-PAGE gel. The intensity of the bovine albumin band, estimated by using IMAGEJ ( https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/ ) to quantify band intensity, was correlated to the cyst volumes. The six HF samples from cysts with similar sizes (4–6 cm diameter) used in the proteomic analysis are indicated by blue squares (E. granulosus) and red squares (E. ortleppi). (B) Analysis of HF proteins from the selected samples. 50 μg of HF proteins E. granulosus (EG1–3) and E. ortleppi (EO1–3) samples were evaluated by 12% SDS-PAGE gel. For each sample it was possible to identify stained proteins from 10 to 250 kDa. Markers are indicated on the left.
