Abstract

p-Aminodiphenylamine (p-ADPA) has got a binding capacity with tissue proteins. Aspartic and glutamic acids are presumably the responsible units in the protein chain involved in this binding with p-ADPA. p-ADPA is changed into a quinone structure after atmospheric oxidation in Krebs-Ringer-Bicarbonate buffer, pH 7.4 in the presence of trace metal ions. This oxidised form of p-ADPA binds with aspartic acid at pH 7.4 and temperature 40° in 2 hrs. The derivative thus formed absorbs at 450 nm instead of 430 nm.
