title: Formation of amino acids and related oligomers from formaldehyde and hydroxylamine in a solution of transition metal ions.
abstract: In a solution of transition metal ions with or without kaolin not only amino acids but also their oligomers were formed. The maximum ratio of amino acids after to before acid hydrolysis 5  6.
