Abstract: This is the standard 揈llman抯 Test?for the determination of free thiols. It works well for small peptides and proteins synthesized using standard solid phase synthetic methods. |
Overview This is the standard “Ellman’s Test” for the determination of free thiols. (Ref. 1) It works well for small peptides and proteins synthesized using standard solid phase synthetic methods. Peptides from these syntheses are usually in their reduced form, and are usually stable to oxidation in acidic solutions. Free thiol can be determined in solutions collected from chromatographic separations or from reconstituted lyophilized samples. This protocol has been used for peptides (3 to 26mer) with a single Cys residue present and lacking tryptophan. (Ref. 2, 3) The technique should be feasible for multiple Cys residues (Hint 5).
