Description

N-alpha-Z-DL-tryptophan is a chiral amino acid derivative that is structurally similar to the neurotransmitter noradrenaline. It can be used as a buffer in chromatographic methods for biogenic amines. The summarised liquid chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography (LC/HPLC) methods for the analysis of amines have been described. These methods are based on the use of tetrahydrofuran (THF) as an eluent, which has been found to be superior to acetonitrile (ACN). Vancomycin is a peptide antibiotic that inhibits cell wall synthesis by binding to the D-alanine residue of peptidoglycan precursors. This leads to cell death and bacterial lysis.
