Abstract
For the first time attempted to extract keratin from peacock feathers using HPLC. Our study was successful and an amount of 1.2 mg of keratin was extracted. Chromatogram of peacock feather, showed a retention time at 4.661mints which was close to the retention time of standard keratin at 5mints, and the concentration of the compound was calculated as area under the curve /100. From this study it may be concluded that, peacock feathers may also be considered as one of the feasible options for extraction of keratin.
