HPLC Method for Substituted Furans Separation on Newcrom R1 column

Furan is a chemical contaminant that forms in some foods during traditional heat treatment techniques, such as cooking, jarring, and canning.  The compounds can be retained and separated in HPLC using Newcrom R1 reverse-phase column.  The analytical method’s mobile phase consists of a gradient of acetonitrile (ACN) in water with phosphoric acid (H3PO4) buffer and using UV detection at 210 and 275 nm.
