Abstract:
Colla corri asini, as traditional Chinese medicine “Ejiao”, is a kind of donkeyskin gelatin. The main components in Colla corri asini include proteins, peptides, polysaccharides and amino acids. In this study, the Ejiao solution was fractionated by fibronecti sepharose affinity chromatography. After further demineralization and condensation by solid-phase extraction, some unique peptides were obtained. The peptides obtained were separated with high performance liquid chromatography and their sequences were determined with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.
