✦ Synopsis
The applicability of the spectrophotometric determination of histidine according to Ovadi et al. [(1967) Acta Biochim. Biophys. Acad. Sci. Hung. 2, 455-4581 to a large range of molar ratios of diethylpyrocarbonate (DEP) to histidine requires the use of appropriate differential molar absorptivities dependent on the DEP concentration used. This improved procedure allows a more differentiated aproach to the reactivity of histidine residues in proteins.
