aDetails of samples 1–5 are provided in the Methods.
-
bConcentrations cited are smaller one among the amino acid concentrations determined using NAC and NBC as chiral regents.
-
cRelative percentages of D-amino acids were calculated as 100 × [D-amino acid]/[D-amino acid + L-amino acid].
-
d−, not detected.
-
eN. D., not determined. The D-amino acid peak was confirmed, but the concentration of the D-amino acid was too low to be determined.
