Abstract

In the study of rapid analytical procedures, the author became interested in the field of chromatography. The difficulty of making rapid determinations of minute quantities of the amino acids led to this investigation of paper chromatography. The source of amino acids used in this work are the free amino acids contained in human urine. The rapidity of determining the amino acids was the critical interest in this work. Two-dimensional and circular chromatograms were both investigated to determine which method was the better suited to accomplish the rapid separation of the amino acids.
