A two-step purification protocol was developed to purify rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) vitellogenin (Vtg) and was successfully applied to Vtg of chub (Leuciscus cephalus) and gudgeon (Gobio gobio). Capture and intermediate purification were performed by anion-exchange chromatography on a Resource Q column and a polishing step was performed by gel permeation chromatography on Superdex 200 column. This method is a rapid two-step purification procedure that gave a pure solution of Vtg as assessed by silver staining electrophoresis and immunochemical characterisation
