HPLC Determination of Desmosine on Primesep C Column

HPLC Method for Desmosine on Primesep C by SIELC Technologies

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Desmosine.

Desmosine and isodesmosine are unique amino acids found in elastin, a protein in connective tissue such as elastic arteries, lungs, and skin. Both can be used as specific biological markers for the degradation of mature cross-linked elastin.

Desmosine is pyridinium-based amino acid derivative with C24H40N5O8+ molecular formula. It is found exclusively in elastin. Elevated levels of desmosine in urine can be a symptom of Chronic Obstructive Pukmonary Disease (COPF), so it can be used as a biomarker when monitoring progression and aiding in a potential diagnosis.

Desmosine can be detected at 270nm using Primesep C mixed-mode reversed-phase cation-exchange column and a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile (ACN), and water with Ammonium acetate buffer.
