Abstract

Abstract V method utilizing gas-liquid chromatography and the Sorensen formol titration procedure has been devised for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of amino acids in fruits. Korty-four samples representing 22 varieties of fruits were analyzed for 15 free amino acids. The amino acids were determined as N-trifluoroacetyl n-butyl esters. In a majority of the fruits, aspartic acid was the major component, while hvdroxvproline was the minor component when present. All fruits were found to have different quantitative profiles as well as a distinct qualitative distribution of the free amino acids.
