High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Protoheme on Newcrom R1 by SIELC Technologies
Separation type: Liquid Chromatography Reverse -phase SIELC Technologies
Heme B, also known as protoheme IX, is a specific type of heme and falls under the class of porphyrin compounds. It is an iron-containing compound that is vital for various biological functions, primarily as a component of hemoglobin and myoglobin, which are essential for oxygen transport and storage in the body. Additionally, heme B is found in certain enzymes such as cytochromes, where it plays a key role in electron transport and redox reactions.
Protoheme can be retained, separated and analyzed using a Newcrom R1 reverse-phase stationary phase column. The analysis employs a gradient method with a simple mobile phase comprising water, acetonitrile (MeCN), and formic acid as a buffer. This method allows for detection using UV 400 nm.
