Hi,

I am currently working on characterizing extract from fish skin. My extract supposedly has hydrolyzed collagen, so I would like to check whether it is true.

I am thinking of using Thin Layer Chromatography, with glycine and hydroxyproline as the control. I was hoping to get dots similar in position to glycine and hydroxyproline, but does that mean I have to break down my extract into amino acids first prior to the run? If yes, can anyone tell me the method to do so?

Thank you.
