I'm looking for a method to assay "total amino acids" in a solution that does
not use the classical ninhydrin reaction. There are now so many ways of
derivatizing amino acids, I thought that I might be able to find a technique
based on one of these more recent reactions, but I have not been able to find
anything. In particular, if anyone knows of a "total amino acid assay" that
uses dabsyl-amino acids, I would really appreciate hearing from you. Thank
you in advance.
