LITHIUM AMINO ACID ANALYSIS COLUMNS

Pickering Laboratories specialize in manufacturing of cation-exchange columns for amino acid analysis. No other techniques, including reversed-phase chromatography, have been shown to match post-column ion-exchange methods in quantitation and reproducibility. Advantages of this method, such as absence of matrix interferences, are especially important in analysis of native samples.

Lithium columns and buffers systems have high selectivity and are perfect for physiological fluids and food analysis.

Post-column conditions for amino acids analysis:

Reagent: TRIONE®
Reactor: 130 °C, 0.5 mL
Reagent flow rate: 0.3 mL/min

Detection:

UV-Vis detector: =570 nm for primary amino acids, =440 nm for secondary amino acids
or

Reagent: 300 mg of OPA, 2 g Thiofluor™, 3 mL of 30% Brij® 35 solution in 950 mL of OD104
Reactor: 45 °C, 0.15 mL
Reagent flow rate: 0.3 mL/min

Detection:

Fluorometer: ex 330 nm, em 465 nm

The recommended gradient conditions are subject to change without notice. This may happen because of lot changes in the columns, or improvements in the overall method. The recommended gradient for the column will always be in the column package, and it supercedes the information in this catalog.

Pickering Laboratories recommends six different gradient conditions depending on the column and type of sample.  Use the program recommended on the column data sheet for the initial testing.

The column oven temperature programming gives additional flexibility when optimizing methods. Using temperature gradient allows to improve separation, shorten analysis time and fine-tune the method for detecting compounds of interest.
