Studies were carried out to natural papain inhibitor from papaya latex. Fresh latex from green fruits of Carica papaya was collected and immediately transported in ice bath to the lab, from which three fractions with inhibitor effect of esterase papain activity were isolated by latex dialysis, Sephadex G-25 gel filtration and ionic exchange chromatography in SP-Sephadex C-25. The isolated fract...

Methods are described for the estimation of plasma and urine alpha-amino nitrogen by the colorimetric ninhydrin reaction; in the method for urine, both ammonia and urea are separated by a rapid ion-exchange resin procedure. Two methods of estimation are given; one has the advantage of great simplicity, but involves the use of cyanide; in the other, cyanide is eliminated. Normal values are repor...
