HPLC Method For Analysis Of L-Carnitine and Arginine on Primesep 100 Column
February 3, 2022
Separation type: Liquid Chromatography Mixed-mode
High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of L-Carnitine and Arginine
L-carnitine is a quaternary ammonium cation (also known as a quat) that is key to the metabolic processes of most living species. Arginine is an alpha amino acid that is key to the biosynthesis of proteins.
These two amine-based compounds can be detected in the low UV regime. Using a Primesep 100 mixed-mode column and a gradient mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN) with a gradient of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) as a buffer, L-carnitine and Arginine can be retained, separated, and analyzed. This analysis method can be UV detected at 205 nm.
