Characterization of the polymer formed from methylglyoxal in the presence of L(+)-lysine
Abstract
L(+)--lysine reacts with methylglyoxal in aqueous solution to give a yellow polymer. This polymer has been subjected to some chemical and physico-chemical characterizations. The gross structure of the polymer is probably formed by 3-hydroxypyrrolic nuclei, bridged together by vinylenic groups or -CH(OH)-CH2-CO-CH(OH)-groups.
