TLDR
The analysis outlined below’ is designed to enable one to attain an insight into the composition of proteins by methods which require but small amounts of material and yield approximately quantitative results, indicating the nature of all the nitrogenous products yielded by complete acid hydrolysis.

Gasometric determination of carboxyl groups in free amino acids

TL;DR: The method here presented depends on the fact that a-amino acids, when boiled in water with an excess of ninhydrin (triketohydrindene hydrate) at pH 1 to 5, evolve the CO2 of their carboxyl groups quantitatively in a few minutes.

Evidence for the linkage of a disaccharide to hydroxylysine in tropocollagen.

TL;DR: Soluble collagen from guinea pig skin has been subjected to sequential digestion with purified collagenase and trypsin and a possible role for this structure in the formation of cross-links during collagen "maturation" is described.

Isotope effects in metabolism of 14n and 15n from unlabeled dietary proteins

TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to determine whether the excess of 15N present in protein nitrogen of rat tissues is greater than that in nitrogen of the proteins consumed by the animals.
