Uv-Vis Spectrum of Cholecalciferol
March 16, 2026
Access the UV-Vis Spectrum SIELC Library

If you are looking for optimized HPLC method to analyze Cholecalciferol check our HPLC Applications library
For optimal results in HPLC analysis, it is recommended to measure absorbance at a wavelength that matches the absorption maximum of the compound(s) being analyzed. The UV spectrum shown can assist in selecting an appropriate wavelength for your analysis. Please note that certain mobile phases and buffers may block wavelengths below 230 nm, rendering absorbance measurement at these wavelengths ineffective. If detection below 230 nm is required, it is recommended to use acetonitrile and water as low UV-transparent mobile phases, with phosphoric acid and its salts, sulfuric acid, and TFA as buffers.
For some compounds, the UV-Vis Spectrum is affected by the pH of the mobile phase. The compound was dissolved in methanol.
HPLC Method For Analysis of Ergocalciferol (Vitamin D2) and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) on Primesep SB Column

HPLC Method for Analysis of Ergocalciferol, Cholecalciferol on Primesep SB by SIELC Technologies

Ergocalciferol (Vitamin D2) and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) are fat soluble vitamins that help your body absorb calcium and phosphorus. Your body can produce both when exposed to the sun, but you can also intake these essential vitamins through a daily multivitamin or a Vitamin D pill.
Vitamins D2 and D3 can be detected in the high UV regime. Using a Primesep SB reverse-phase column and a mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile with an acetic acid buffer, Vitamins D2 and D3 can be retained and separated. This analysis method can be UV detected at 265 nm.
