Description

· High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Polyethylenimine PEI

Polyethylenimine ( PEI ), also known as polyaziridine , is a polymer with the molecular formula (C 2 H 5 N) n . It has repeating units of the amine group and carbon aliphatic spacers. PEI has a large variety of uses. Most commonly, it is used in detergents, adhesives, water treatment agents, and cosmetics. Medically, due to being a catatonic polymer, it has been also studied as a gene delivery vehicle with successful outcomes.

Polyethylenimine PEI can be retained and analyzed using the PEI stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes a gradient method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN). Detection is performed using UV.
