HPLC Method for Nicotinamide on Primesep 100 by SIELC Technologies
High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Nicotinamide
Nicotinamide, also known as niacinaminde, is a form of vitamin B3 with the chemical formula C6H6N2O2. It is preferred treatment for pellagra and is a common treatment for acne due to it’s anti-inflammatory properties. If consumed daily, it is shown to decrease the risk of skin cancers other than melanoma.
Nicotinamide can be retained and analyzed using the Primesep 100 stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN) with phosphoric acid as a buffer. Detection is performed using UV.
