Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: All heptoses produce with orcinol in dilute HCl two characteristic colored compounds which differ greatly in their absorption spectra, and three different modifications of this reaction were found useful.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A new method for determination of uronic acids with meta-hydroxydiphenyl is introduced, which is simpler, quicker, more sensitive, and more specific than other methods, and it needs lesser amounts of fluid.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It has been found possible to distinguish betweenHeparin, heparin derivatives, and other polyuronides of connective tissue by comparing the effect of chlorides on the color yield in both procedures by modifying Dische's carbazole reaction for uronic acid in the presence of borate.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A new method for the quantitive determination of sialic acids is described, which is about 50% more sensitive than the orcinol-hydrochloric acid method generally used and considerably lower with the resorcin reagent.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: During the course of investigations on the metabolism of hexosamines in animal tissues, absorption spectra of the color produced in the hexosamine method of Elson and Morgan revealed the presence of interfering chromogens.
