THE REACTION BETWEEN IODOACETIC ACID AND DENATURED EGG ALBUMIN

The Reaction between Iodoacetic Acid and Denatured Egg Albumin * by Lawrence Rosner

The reaction between iodoacetic acid and sulfhydryl compounds has received much attention in recent years. Dickens (1) has shown that this reaction proceeds with the formation of HI and the substitution of a carboxymethyl group for the hydrogen of the thiol group. Smythe (2) has measured the rate of reaction of iodoacetic acid with various sulfhydryl compounds by estimation of the carbon dioxid...

On the reaction between metaphosphoric acid and egg albumin.

METAPHOSPHORIC acid is considered to be a protein-precipitating reagent. Pohl [1889], Lorenz [1890], and Fuld [1902] analysed precipitates obtained from proteins with metaphosphoric acid. Their results did not lead to any important interpretation because at that time the knowledge of protein chemistry was not yet sufficiently developed. In 1935 Schofield gave theoretical reasons for assuming a ...

Hypoxia and iodoacetic acid and alveolocapillary barrier permeability to albumin.

Physiol. 219(5): 12264230. 1970Perfusion studies at controlled flow rates using the isolated left lower lobe of the canine lung were performed under normal oxygen tensions and under conditions of low 0, tension, averaging 12 mm Hg. The average permea...

The Reactions of Denatured Egg Albumin with Ferricyanide*

This paper describes the reactions between the reducing groups of denatured egg albumin and ferricyanide. Measurements have been made of the effects on the amount of ferricyanide reduced of varying the time, temperature, and pH of the reaction, and the concentration of ferricyanide; of adding the synthetic detergent, Duponol PC; and of treating the denatured protein before the ferricyanide reac...
