Abstract
In studying proteolysis occurring in incubating saliva, the effect of the addition of glucose was detd. by estimating amino acids set free using the ninhydrin-CO2 reaction as well as the nitrous acid method. By means of these 2 reactions, the effect of added glucose to incubating saliva was to markedly increase the free carboxyl and primary amino groups as incubation progressed. When ammonia-plus urea N changes were studied it was observed that addition of glucose to incubating saliva favors the process of proteolysis over that of deamination.Keywords
