A Method for Gas Chromatographic Determination of 11 Amino Acids in Protein Hydrolysate
Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica volume 9, pages 71–85 (1968)
Abstract
A gas chromatographic method is described by which 11 amino acids in protein hydrolysate can be determined. They are: alanine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline and valine. The result is presented as the percentage of the amino acid in relation to the total weight of amino acids determined. Means of making the method quantitative are indicated.
