We describe the noninvasive real-time pressure monitoring of Boc- and Fmoc-based peptide synthesis. Pressure was measured using a resistance strain gauge attached to the inlet of a continuous-flow reactor of variable volume. In the assembly of the 'difficult' polyalanine sequence, it was shown that pressure monitoring can reveal structural variations of the peptide-resin, e.g. the onset, development and termination of aggregation. This method provided washing minimization that favored substantial saving of solvents. The obtained results demonstrated the advantage of pressure monitoring over swellographic monitoring.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
