HPLC Determination of Polyhexanide (PHMB) on PEI Column


 

Polyhexanide (polyhexamethylene biguanide, PHMB) is a polymer used as a disinfectant and antiseptic. We estimated that limit of detection is about 2 ppm for this compounds with this method.

The peak of polyhexanide fractionated on several peaks due to difference in length of the polymer components.
