ANIMAL PROTEINS (CLASSIC REPRINT)

Excerpt from Animal ProteinsOn the subdivision, classification and nomenclature of the proteins much ink has been Spilled, and it is impossible in this volume to go into the various systems which have been suggested. It should be noted, however, that some writers habitually use the terms proteid or albuminoid as Synonyms for protein. The classification of proteins adopted in this work is used because it is the most suitable for a volume on industrial chemistry and has the additional merits that it is simple and is already used in several standard works on industrial chemistry. It is based Upon the behaviour of the proteins towards water, a matter of obvious moment in manufacturing processes. On this basis proteins may be divided into albumins, keratins and gelatins.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
