Analysis of Arginine by Spectrophotometry (CAT#: STEM-MT-2575-LGZ)

Introduction

Amino acids are the basic units of biological macromolecules protein and active peptides, and are also necessary substances to maintain normal life activities of organisms. In addition, the composition and content of amino acids also affect the efficacy of some medicinal substances and the taste and nutritional value of edible products. Amino acid composition analysis has been widely used in the study of amino acid composition and content of various edible and medicinal substances.




Principle

It mainly uses amino acids to react with derivatives to produce blue-purple compounds, which have the maximum absorption peak at a certain wavelength, and the amino acid content is obtained according to the absorption value. Spectrophotometry has the characteristics of easy operation, simple instrument requirements, low cost, wide application range and suitable for the detection of aromatic amino acids.
