High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analyses of Arginine, Lysine and Histidine Amino Acids

Basic amino acids, like Arginine, Lysine, and Histidine, can be difficult to separate and retain in typical reverse-phase chromatography. Arginine is a naturally-occurring, essential amino acid typically found in meat, poultry, and fish. Lysine is another essential amino acid typically found in meat, and also cereal grains. A third essential amino acid, Histidine, is also typtically found in meat, poultry, and also cereal grains (like rice, wheat, and rye). Using SIELC’s newly introduced BIST™ method, these three essential amino acids, which protonate in water, can be retained on a positively-charged anion-exchange BIST™ B column. There are two keys to this retention method: 1) a multi-charged, negative buffer, such as Sulfuric acid (H2SO4), which acts as a bridge, linking the positively-charged amino acid analytes to the positively-charged column surface and 2) a mobile phase consisting mostly of organic solvent (such as MeCN) to minimize the formation of a solvation layer around the charged analytes. Using this new and unique analysis method, Arginine, Lysine, and Histidine can be retained and UV detected at 210 nm.

Application Column

BIST B

BIST™ columns offer a unique and effective way to achieve separations that were traditionally challenging or even impossible with other HPLC columns. With the use of a special mobile phase, these ion exchange columns provide very strong retention for analytes with the same charge polarity as the stationary phase, unlocking new chromatography applications. What makes BIST™ columns stand out is their proprietary surface chemistry, which results in superior selectivity, resolution, and sensitivity. These columns offer a simple, efficient solution for a variety of analytical challenges, making them an excellent choice for researchers and analysts across many different fields.
