Formation of amino acids by cobalt-60 irradiation of hydrogen cyanide solutions.

M A Sweeney, A P Toste, C Ponnamperuma.   

Abstract

Aqueous solutions of hydrogen cyanide (0.004-0.1 M) were exposed to cobalt-60 gamma rays. Among the products formed on hydrolysis of the irradiated solution; glycine, alanine, valine, serine, threonine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid have been identified.
