Other uses of α-alanine which is an aqueous amino acid are for research
purposes such as for solvents, CO2 capture and absorbents. However,
properties of α-alanine needed for evaluation have not yet been reported in
literature.
METHODOLOGY
Density measurement
The apparatus used to measure the density
of α-alanine was Anton Paar SVM (Stabinger
Viscometer) 3000
This apparatus uses Couette principle, where
the liquid is in between two cylinders that
rotates. The density is measured based on
the difference in speed between the two
cylinders.
