Description

· Separation type: Liquid Chromatography Ion Exclusion · High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method of Choline

Choline is a water-soluble vitamin-like essential nutrient.  It is a constituent of lecithin, which is present in many plants and animal organs.  Choline is a nutrient related to the B-vitamin family.  First discovered in 1862, it wasn’t classified as an essential nutrient until very recently.  It can be retained on an Obelisc R column, which has both positive and negative ion-pairs embedded in the stationary phase, allowing for the fine tuning and separation of a wide range of compounds with different ionic properties.  Choline can be determined isocratically using a simple MS-compatible mobile phase of acetonitrile (ACN) and water with Ammonium Formate (AmFm) buffer and detected by ELSD, CAD or LC/MS.
