Kjeldahl Method --- Nitrogen Determination
(1) Digestion conc. H2SO4 a
catalyst nitrogen converted into an ammonium
ion. (2) Neutralize to get NH3 with NaOH (3)
Steam distillation of NH3 and trap in boric
acid. (4) Titrate with hydrochloric
acid. Calculation Gram nitrogen/ gram of sample
(ml of sample - ml of blank) ? N standard
acid ? 0.014g/meq weight of sample  
ml of hydrochloric acid required to titrate
sample solution.

2. Dye Binding Method
PrincipleAt low pH, basic groups of protein are
() charged. These will quantitatively bind a
(-) charged dye.  What are these basic groups?
56
Dye Binding Method
Acid Orange 12
Procedure 1. Mix protein, dye, buffer pH
2. 2. Filter or centrifuge. 3. Measure optical
density (O.D.) of filterate.

3. Biuret Method
Principles Cu in alkaline solution form
complexity with peptide bonds - give
pinkish-purple color.
Measure the intensity of color at 540 nm.

4. Lowry Method (one of most sensitive methods)
  • Cu in alkaline solution to form complexity with
    protein.
  • Cu catalyses oxidation of phenol group of
    tyrosine with phosphomolybdic-phosphotungstic
    acid.

5. Ultra-violet Absorption (UV) at 280 nm
  • Chromophoric side chains of aromatic amino acids
    (Trosine, Tryptophan).
  • Absorption at 280 nm. Non-destructive means to
    determine protein.
  • Calculation protein conc. based upon absorption

62
6. Fluorescence Method
Tyrosine is a fluorescent compound. Tryptophane
is a fluorescent compound. Excite the amino
acids at 280 nm. Measure emission at 348
nm.   Advantage more sensitive than UV
absorption.

Fluorescence Method
What is fluorescence and how to measure it?
Excited State
Emits radiation
(fluorescence)
Decay yields
fluorescence at
longer wavelength
Ground State
By using specific l (wavelength) to excite and
measure output at a specific l. It is rather
specific. Problems Turbidity/Quenching (self or
others)/Expensive/ Quantitation is difficult.

Amino Acid Determination
A. Hydrolysis 1. Overnight in 6 M HCl at 100
C. 2. Enzymes.   B. Separation by ion exchange.

Some Important Reactions of Proteins
  • Denaturation
  • Changes in 2o, 3o, 4o structure.
  • By heat.
  • Heavy metals (Hg is most common).
  • pH (trichloroacetic acid, phosphotungstic acid)
  • Salt (NaCl or ammonium sulfate NH42 SO4)
  • Reasons for Precipitating Proteins
  • Purify, concentrate protein.
  • Remove protein which cause turbidity/emulsio
    n/troublesome.

69
Protein Denaturation
Manifestation of Denaturation 1. Decreased
solubility. 2. Alteration of size and
shape 3. greater reactivity 4. Decreased
biological activity (enzyme immune
proteins) 5. Increased sensitivity to
electrolytes. 6. Nutritive value.
70
What is essential amino acids?
Amino acids which the body cannot make (or make
enough of) for protein synthesis due to lack of
enzymes.
Essential Amino Acids Histidine, Isoleucine,
Leucine Lysine, Methionine, Phenylalanine Thr
eonine, Valine
71
Limiting amino acid is the essential amino acid
which is lacking in the protein to have a
balanced protein.

PROTEIN QUALITY DETERMINATION
1. Protein Efficiency Ratio. 2. Biological
Value. 3. Net Protein Utilization.
73
What are the measurements of protein quality?
For labeling purposes, one needs to know the
protein efficiency ratio. 1. If PER casein
(2.5), the RDA 45 g/day. 2. If 0.5 lt PER lt 2.5,
then RDA 65 g/day. 3. If PER lt 0.5 (20 of
casein), then not a significant source of
protein.
74
  • How does one determine PER?
  • Male lab rats 21 days, 28 days of age, at
    least 10 rats/group.
  • Feed a standardized diet containing salt mix,
    vitamins, cotton seed oil, cellulose, starch or
    sucrose water for 28 days.
  • Measure weight gain and food intake at regular
    intervals, not gt 7 days.
  • PER Weight Gain/Gram of Protein in Diet.
  • Usually normalized for casein 2.5.
  • Determine protein quality of sample as ratio of
    sample PER to reference casein PER.
  • Protein Efficiency Ratio Gain in weight per
    gram protein taken.
