| Notes: | Entry 646a in published catalogue of the Pharmaceutical Society Museum Collection (1878): ''White shining scales. Note.- Obtained by the action of boiling solution of potassium hydrate on gelatin. (Glycocine and leucine partly on account of their being de, rived from gelatine, and partly because of their anomalous nature, - being capable of acting either as acids or bases, - are more conveniently placed among the animal organic compounds than elsewhere. See Fownes, Chemistry, pp. 895, 896.)'' Classified as, an ''Active Principle'' in the card catalogue of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society Museum Collection. | ||||
