Abstract

The emission thermophotometry (ETP) curves of ten selected amino acids were determined in a flowing oxygen atmosphere. Most of the ETP curves contained a single emission peak in the 230–350°C temperature range; several of the curves contained multiple peaks and/or shoulder peaks. The light emission varied in intensity for each amino acid, but in most cases was at a very low level. The origin of the light emission process is not known but it is probably due to the presence of unstable pyrolysis products.
