β¦ Synopsis
Amino acid hydaneoins were detected directly in amounts of 0.2-O.Spg with tevt.-bueyl hypochlorite.
The amino acid hydantoins' were separated by thin-layer chromatography using the following solve@ systems: (I) chloroform-ethanol-formic acid (2: 1: 1); (II) rz-but.yl acetate-ethanol-formic acid (12:2: 1); (III) dichloroethaneethanol-formic acid (80: 20: 1); and (IV) n-butanol-acetic acid-water (15: 2: 5). The terminal amino groups of several proteins were detected successfully.
