The level of amino acid background in the blank sample is one of the limiting factors for high sensitivity amino acid analysis. By use of the (dimethylamino)azobenzenesulfonyl chloride (DABS-Cl) precolumn labeling/HPLC method, the potential sources of contaminants during hydrolysis and derivatization were systematically investigated. The data indicate that the most likely source of amino acid contaminants is aqueous 6N HCl. Gas-phase acid hydrolysis can reduce the background generated by normal liquid-phase hydrolysis to about 25%. A typical blank sample, after gas-phase hydrolysis, yields an average of 0.5-3 pmol of Asp, Glu, Ser, and Gly. This low level of background together with the improved DABS-Cl method permits routine and reliable amino acid analysis of low nanogram quantities of protein hydrolysates.
