چکیده

A simple method for the determination of tryptophan residues in proteins is described. The method involves (a) treatment of the protein with an excess of 2-hydroxy-Snitrobenzyl bromide, (b) purification of the labeled protein by gel filtration and ethanol washing, (c) measurement of the absorbance at 410 rnp to determine the number of colored groups incorporated, and (d) a determination of the total protein content by conventional methods. The procedure has been shown to be accurate with a wide variety of proteins.

Quantitative Calorimetric Determination of Tryptophan

The methods currently used for the estimation of tryptophan are based on one of the following principles: Reaction with aldehydes in acid solution (1, Z), with glyoxylic acid (3), with mercury salts and nitrous acid (4,5), by determination after isolation from its mercury salt (6)) or by the use of Marshal’s reagent (7). Of the above mentioned methods, those based on aldehyde reactions and on t...

Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes/Ionic Liquid Nanocomposite Modified Carbon-ceramic Electrode: Electrochemistry and Measurement of Tryptophan in the Presence of Uric Acid

In the present work, an efficient modified carbon-ceramic electrode by multi-walled carbon nanotubes/ionic liquid nanocomposite (MWCNTs/IL/CCE) was prepared through a simple and repeatable procedure. The introduced modified electrode was used for the study of the electrochemical behaviour and determination of tryptophan (Trp) in the presence of uric acid (UA) using cyclic voltammetry (CV), diff...
