A factor of low M(r) with growth-promoting effects on rabbit embryos was extracted and purified from commercial bovine serum albumin (BSA). This embryotrophic factor was extracted from BSA dissolved in formic acid by membrane filtration (membrane cutoff of M(r) 10,000) and then freeze-drying of the filtrate. The extract was purified successively by chromatography on G-10 Sephadex, QAE-Sephadex A-25 anion exchange and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) reverse-phase columns. Mass spectrometry of the active reverse-phase material indicated that the major component in this material had an M(r) of 192. The embryotrophic factor in the low M(r) extract of BSA was shown to be citrate, because: (i) the mass spectra of the active reverse-phase material and citrate were identical, (ii) the activity was eluted at the identical position to citrate on an analytical HPLC anion-exchange column, (iii) the original BSA sample was shown by enzyme assay to be heavily contaminated by citrate and (iv) citrate stimulated cell proliferation and expansion of blastocysts.
