The Sialic Acids

Abstract

The Svennerholm resorcinol method for the quantitative determination of the sialic acids was modified by introducing a periodate oxidation step prior to heating with the resorcinol reagent. Sialic acid glycosides could be determined without acid hydrolysis. The glycosides gave chromogens stable to periodate oxidation at 37°, whereas free sialic acid gave chromogens that were destroyed at this temperature, but were stable at 0°. Using these properties, the periodate-resorcinol method was applied to the determination of total, free, or bound sialic acid. The periodate-resorcinol method was substantially more sensitive than the resorcinol procedure, was not affected by lipids, amino acids, or sugars, and could be used to detect free or glycosidically bound sialic acids on paper chromatograms.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
