Abstract: | A procedure for assay of amino acids, peptides, and other primary amine containing compounds has been developed based on their inter-action with ninhydrin and phenylacetaldehyde to yield highly fluorescent ternary products. The fluorescent ninhydrin procedure is 10 to 100 times more sensitive than the colorimetric ninhydrin procedure. The fluorometric reaction has been successfully automated for column chromatography of amino acids and peptides and has been used for detecting primary amine containing compounds on paper and thin-layer chromatograms. |
