✦ Synopsis


The photometric assay of reducing sugars with 2,2'-bicinchoninate was improved and its conditions were optimized. Optical density is linear between 1 and 25 nmol sugar/sample, and the assay is not affected by borate, phosphate, or other buffer anions. The molar extinction coefficients produced by the standard procedure with the 12 most common monosaccharides occurring in carbohydrates and conjugated glycocompounds are listed.

For the first time, reducing values of homologous series of oligosaccharides have been determined by the 2,2'-bicinchoninate assay. The extent of Cu2+ reduction was monitored by spectrophotometric measurement of Cu+/2,2'-bicinchoninate complexes. Conditions of the assay were optimized so that relati

At a concentration of 20-800 nmol/0.1 ml hydrogen peroxide instantly reacts with a 2,2'-bicinchoninic acid copper color reagent. It also reacts with a reformulated reagent at pH 7 but the color develops less rapidly. While the effect may interfere with protein estimations at alkaline pH, the effect

Ethanolamine reacts with p-benzoquinone in alkaline medium to give a product of undetermined structure, the absorption of which at 348 nm can be used for the estimation of the base. Conditions are described in which the interference of 0-phosphorylethanolamine, glucosamine, and neutral sugars is eli

## Abstract Decay of primary amines associated with proteins of anhydrobiotic and lyophilized, fresh nematodes (Aphelenchus avenae) occurs more readily in the lyophilized, fresh worms than in the anhydrobiotic ones. Addition of glucose accelerates the rate of decay, while addition of trehalose alon
