HPLC Method for Separation of a Mixture of Tryptophan and its Catabolites on Primesep 100 Column Chromatogramm

Separation type: Liquid Chromatography Mixed-mode

Tryptophan and its catabolites participate in several biological pathways, having roles in protein synthesis, serving as precursors to bioactive molecules, and influencing several physiological processes. Here’s an overview considering a mixture of tryptophan and its catabolites:

Tryptophan and its Catabolites can be retained, separated and analyzed on a Primesep 100 mixed-mode stationary phase column using an gradient analytical method with a simple mobile phase of water, Acetonitrile (MeCN), and a sulfuric acid as a buffer. This analysis method can be detected using UV at 220 nm.
