Method for Separation of Muscimol and Thiomuscimol on Primesep 100 by SIELC Technologies

Muscimol (also known as agarin or pantherine) is a psychoactive GABA-A agonist. It is a naturally occurring compound found in Amanita muscaria and related species of mushrooms. Thiomuschimol is also a GABA-A agonist with a near identical structure as Muscimol with the Oxygen in the ring replaced with a Sulfur. These structurally similar psychoactive drugs can be retained, separated, and analyzed on a mixed-mode Primesep 100 column with a mobile phase consisting of water, Acetonitrile (MeCN), and Ammonium formate (AmFm). This analytical method can be UV detected at 250 nm with high resolution and peak symmetry.

Method for Separation of Ibotenic Acid and Muscimol on Primesep 100 by SIELC Technologies

Ibotenic acid is a physchoactive NDMA and metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist with neurotoxic properties. Muscimol (also known as agarin or pantherine) is a psychoactive GABA-A agonist. Both are naturally occurring compounds found in Amanita muscaria and related species of mushrooms. These structurally similar psychoactive drugs can be retained, separated, and analyzed on a mixed-mode Primesep 100 column with a mobile phase consisting of water, Acetonitrile (MeCN), and Sulfuric acid (H2SO4). This analytical method can be UV detected at 200 nm with high resolution and peak symmetry.

Separation of Muscimol on Newcrom R1 HPLC column

February 16, 2018
Separation of Muscimol on Newcrom C18 HPLC column

Muscimol can be analyzed by this reverse phase (RP) HPLC method with simple conditions. The mobile phase contains an acetonitrile (MeCN), water, and phosphoric acid. For Mass-Spec (MS) compatible applications the phosphoric acid needs to be replaced with formic acid. Smaller 3 µm particles columns available for fast UPLC applications. This liquid chromatography method is scalable and can be used for isolation impurities in preparative separation. It also suitable for pharmacokinetics.

Application Column

Newcrom R1

The Newcrom columns are a family of reverse-phase-based columns. Newcrom A, AH, B, and BH are all mixed-mode columns with either positive or negative ion-pairing groups attached to either short (25 Å) or long (100 Å) ligand chains. Newcrom R1 is a special reverse-phase column with low silanol activity.
