The use of omicron-phthaldialdehyde in the detection of proteins and peptides

Biochim Biophys Acta. 1976 May 20;434(1):209-14. doi: 10.1016/0005-2795(76)90052-0.

Abstract

A highly sensitive method utilizing omicron-phthaldialdehyde for an automated fluorescent assay of proteins and peptides is described in this paper. As an example of the utility of omicron-phthaldialdehyde, the separation of bovine serum albumin monomer from bovine serum albumin oligomers is discussed.
