Have all 20 amino acids been formed in a Laboratory?

 

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.  And although some evolutionists "claim" they can all be made in a laboratory, they can't seem to back up their assertions with documentation.  Below is an email I sent to Dr. Kent Simmons to which No reply was given.

Dear Kent,
 

AT your web site ( http://io.uwinnipeg.ca/~simmons/Chap2698/tsld012.htm )

you state that :

The Urey-Miller experiments produced all 20 amino acids, ATP, some sugars, lipids, and the purine and pyrimidine bases of RNA and DNA.

·         The Urey-Miller experiments produced all 20 amino acids, ATP, some sugars, lipids, and the purine and pyrimidine bases of RNA
and DNA.

·         These building blocks must have been joined into long chains or “polymers”.

 

Other sites such as : http://www.astrobio.net/news/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=461

state that only 13 of the 21 amino acids were created.

 

Have you published a paper on this?  If so, what is the reference?

Has anyone else been able to replicate your results?

 

Thanks for your time,

 

Randy Berg
