title: The use of omicron-phthaldialdehyde in the detection of proteins and peptides.
abstract: A highly sensitive method utilizing omicron-phthaldialdehyde for an automated fluorescent assay of proteins and peptides is described in this paper. As an example of the utility of omicron-phthaldialdehyde, the separation of bovine serum albumin monomer from bovine serum albumin oligomers is discussed.
