Hello everyone.. I have FTIR spectra of each carbohydrate, protein, fat, and the mixture of them (dried emulsion). Then I need to know and put the linkage functional group between component in the sketch of emulsion chemical structure. I found some bonding types based on the spectra and references such as hydrogen bonding and amide bonding. Could you please tell me how to check/make sure the linkage functional group and how to sketch the structure?
Thank you.
Getting to a full structure with FTIR and nothing else is only possible in some rare exception cases which turn even rarer when the molecules get larger - and a protein is basically the largest kind of beast you can have. There is a reason why protein sequencing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_sequencing is a whole field of research on its own.
