T. Sano et al., Contamination of dipeptide by polymer stabilizers leached from gloves and packaging during scale-up, ORG PROC R, 4(5), 2000, pp. 349-352
In dipeptide production, it was observed that a water solution of a peptide
became turbid. The origin of turbidity was monitored and identified by LC-
MS analysis. The impurities, derived from natural rubber gloves, and polyet
hylene bags caused the turbidity when the wet cake of the peptide contacted
them.
