Folic acid is a synthetic form of folate, a B vitamin, that is used as in supplements and to fortify food. Folic acid can be retained using Primesep 100 mixed-mode column, which has both hydrophobic and ion exchange properties due to embedded acidic ion-pairing groups. The analytical method uses a mobile phase of acetonitrile (ACN) and water with ammonium formate (AmFm) buffer, making the method MS-compatible. Can also use UV detection at 250nm.

Application Column
Primesep 100
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. Inquire about our specially-tailored custom LC-phases for specific separations.
