Which amino acids are sensitive to stressed derivatization conditions? - WKB65952

Article number: 65952

ENVIRONMENT

  • amino acids
  • derivatization
  • AccQ-Tag
  • AccQ-Fluor
  • reagent
  • inefficient reaction
  • low yield
  • care and handling

ANSWER

The amino acids that derivatize more slowly under stressed derivatization conditions are lysine, alanine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Ornithine can also be impacted by stressed derivatization conditions.

Tyrosine can also be affected if not heated to 55 degrees Celsius as part of the reaction steps.
