Separation Properties of Enantiomeric Amino Acids by Ultrafiltration Using Cyclodextrin.

Abstract

The new separation method based on the selective inclusion properties of cyclodextrin (CD) for structural isomers and selective permeability of ultrafiltration were applied to the optical resolution where the selective inclusion of enantiomers by CD is the key step. Permeation experiments were carried out with enantiomers of threonine and phenylalanine. Some informations about the optical resolution of amino acids by the presented method were obtained.
