Description

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

Micafungin is an anti-fungal medication with the chemical formula C 56 H 71 N 9 O 23 S .  It is used to treat infections including but not limited to candidemia, abscesses, and esophageal candidiasis. It works through inhibiting the production of beta-1,3-glucan. It is only accessible through perscription.

Micafungin can be retained and analyzed on a Newcrom R1 reverse-phase column using a simple isocratic analytical method with a mobile phase consisting of Acetonitrile (MeCN), water, and Sulfuric acid as the ionic modifier. This analysis method can be UV detected at 270 nm with high resolution and peak symmetry.
