CIRCULAR PAPER CHROMATOGRAPHY - Part II. Amino Acid Analysis of Proteins

K V GIRI, K KRISHNAMURTHY, T A VENKITASUBRAMANYAN

Abstract


Circular paper chromatographic technique has been applied to the
study of the amino acid composition of proteins.

Casein, gelatin, zein, silk fibroin, egg albumin, rice and cambn proteins have been subjected to chromatographic analysis and the chromatographic patterns showing the amino acid composition of these proteins have been given.

By the application of this technique it is shown that proteins can be easily characterised and differentiated with respect to their amitto acid composition.

The possible application of this technique to the study of other allied problems is discussed.
