Amino acids are the basic building block for peptides and proteins. They are raw
materials for generating hormones, purines, pyrimidines and vitamins. Amino
acids also provide the body with energy through their carbon structures. The study
analyzed the amino acid in the kidneys of the albino mice embryo at 17 and 19
gestation days, using a high-performance liquid chromatography device (HPLC).
Samples were obtained after removing them from the embryo and placing them in
an ice bath to prevent cell lysis and acid loss. The study found 18 amino acids in
the kidneys of the albino mice embryo. They are Asparagine (Asn), Glutamine
(Glu), Serine (Ser), Glycine (Gly), Threonine (Thr), Histidine (His), Cysteine
(Cys), Alanine (Ala), Proline
