High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Tricaprylin, Tricaprin, Trimyristin, Trilaurin, Tripalmitin

Series of triglycerides, which are esters derived from glycerol and three fatty acids.

Tricaprylin:
- Composed of glycerol and three caprylic acid (C8:0) molecules.
- Found in coconut oil and palm kernel oil.
- Used in cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals for its quick energy release.
Tricaprin:
- Made from glycerol and three capric acid (C10:0) molecules.
- Occurs naturally in coconut oil and goat milk.
- Utilized for energy supplementation and in lipid-based formulations.
Trilaurin:
- Formed by glycerol and three lauric acid (C12:0) molecules.
- Present in coconut and palm kernel oils.
- Known for its antimicrobial properties and use in soaps and cosmetics.
Trimyristin:
- Consists of glycerol and three myristic acid (C14:0) molecules.
- Major component of nutmeg butter.
- Employed in the production of surfactants and as a fat source in food.
Tripalmitin:
- Made up of glycerol and three palmitic acid (C16:0) molecules.
- Found in palm oil, cocoa butter, and animal fats.
- Used in food processing, cosmetics, and as a model lipid in research.

Tricaprylin, Tricaprin, Trimyristin, Trilaurin, Tripalmitin can be retained, and analyzed using a Lipak mixed-mode stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an gradient method with a mobile phase consisting of methanol (MeOH), ethanol (EtOH), ammonium formate and formic acid as a buffer. Detection is achieved using LC_MS.

Column	Lipak, 3.2 x 100 mm, 5 µm, 100 A
Mobile Phase	Gradient MeOH/EtOH – 60/40-10/90% in 10 min
Buffer	AmFm– 10 mM, FA – 0.05%
Flow Rate	0.5 ml/min
Detection	ESI-SIM: [M+NH4]⁺ – (488, 530, 656, 741, 825); [M + HCOOH + H]⁺ – (685, 853)
