Abstract

Extracts prepared from Antarctic krill ( Euphausia superba), mainly consisting of acidic proteolytic enzymes, have been studied with capillary electrophoretic techniques. Approximately 50 repeatable peaks were obtained with capillary zone electrophoresis on an untreated fused-silica capillary using a phosphate buffer containing anionic and cationic fluorosurfactant additives as separation medium. A faster separation was achieved on a polyvinyl alcohol coated capillary. Quantitative variations of individual proteins regarding different krill enzyme batches were noted. In the krill samples trypsin-like serine proteinase, carboxypeptidase A and carboxypeptidase B were tentatively identified.
