Simultaneous Analysis of Amino Acids Using Automatic Pretreatment Function of Integrated HPLC

User Benefits

- Automatic pre-column derivatization method enables highly selective amino acid analysis with high sensitivity. - Proteinogenic amino acids can be analyzed within 20 minutes. - Generally used HPLC can cover all procedures for pre-column derivatized amino acid analysis.

Introduction

The analysis of amino acids is necessary in various fields such as the fields of food and pharmaceuticals. A method often used in the analysis of amino acids with HPLC is post-column derivatization, and Shimadzu amino acid analysis system also uses the method. However, post-column derivatization is difficult to speed up due to the characteristics of the column which is used. This article introduces amino analysis by automated pre-column derivatization using the automated pretreatment capability of the integrated HPLC system LC-2070C.
