Abstract

Proteins are the structural component of muscles in human beings. They have gained interest of scientists fortheir role inproviding energy and formation of enzymes and hormones.Due to this reason various analytical techniques are used nowadays to increase their production or extraction from natural sources of animals and plants. The proteins obtained from animal sources are more complete as compared to plant sources as they contain all the necessary amino acids. The proteins are analyzed before they are administered into the body or used in the form of drugs. The present review briefly highlights the techniques that are used for their isolation and analysis.
