title: Simple analytic method of diaminopimelate epimerase activity.
abstract: A simple method to analyze diaminopimelate epimerase activity has been devised which uses thin-layer chromatography and chiral column chromatography for preparation of pure diaminopimelate isomers and detection of products, respectively.
