HPLC Separation of Alendronic, Ibandronic, Etidronic Acids

June 6, 2006

Dronic acids are bisphosphonates that differ in their alkyl chains. Alendronate (Fosamax) marketed alone is used for osteoporosis and other bone diseases. It is also combined with Vitamin C (Fosavance). A short, 50 mm Primesep SB column separates alendronic, ibandronic, and etidronic acids. The HPLC separation uses a mobile phase of water, acetonitrile (MeCN, ACN), trifluoracetic acid (TFA) or ammonium formate and evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD) at 80°C.

Application Column

Primesep SB

The Primesep family of mixed-mode columns offers a wide variety of stationary phases, boasting unprecedented selectivity in the separation of a broad array of chemical compounds across multiple applications. Corresponding Primesep guard columns, available with all stationary phases, do not require holders. SIELC provides a method development service available to all customers.
