Decline in the amino acid concentration with oxidation time using NaOCl. Upper: THAA concentration of Asx (6 h hydrolysis) for Corbicula (left) and Margaritifera (right). Other amino acids show similar trends (Fig. 4). The particle size of the powder does not appear to affect the extent of oxidation. Lower: THAA (24 h hydrolysis; left) and FAA (right) concentrations of Asx, Glx, and Ala for Bithynia.
