Ascorbic Acid

HPLC Method for Analysis of Ascorbic Acid, Sodium metabisulfite on Primesep SB by SIELC Technologies

 High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of  Ascorbic Acid, Sodium metabisulfite

*The metabisulfite ion (S₂O₅²⁻) is hydrolyzed to bisulfite (HSO₃⁻) in water. Sodium metabisulfite is a white crystalline or powder solid. It has many uses, but some of it’s more prominent are: as the source of SO2 in wine, as a bleaching agent in the production of Coconut cream, and added to anesthetic solutions to prevent oxidation to improve the shelf life of the solution. Ascorbic is found naturally in citrus fruits and many vegetables. As a medication, it is used to prevent or treat low levels of vitamin C, since it is that vitamin. Vitamin C is needed to maintain the health of skin, cartilage, teeth, bone, and blood vessels. Ascorbic Acid and Sodium Metabisulfite can be separated, retained, and analyzed on a Primesep SB mixed-mode stationary phase column using an isocratic analytical method with a simple mobile phase of water, Acetonitrile (MeCN), and a phosphoric acid (H3PO4) buffer. This analysis method can be detected in the UV 270 nm.

Separation type: Bridge Ion Separation Technology, or BIST™ by SIELC Technologies

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of  Maleic  acid, Ascorbic acid, Nicotinic acid, Fumaric acid and Oxalic acid

The maleate ion from Maleic acid is a popular ingredient as the maleate salt in several different drugs, including Methergine, Pyrilamine, and Carfenazine, among others. Nicotinic acid, also known as Niacin or Vitamin B3, is an essential nutrient for the human body and is sometimes taken as a treatment for high cholesterol. Aconitic acid is a key intermediary in the citric acid cycle, and is also used a flavoring agent and in the production of rubbers and plastics. Fumaric acid is a popular preservative and food additive with a fruit-like taste. Using SIELC’s newly introduced BIST™ method, a mixture of these organic acids can be separated on a negatively-charged, cation-exchange BIST™ A+ column, contrary to conventional chromatographic wisdom. There are two keys to this retention method: 1) a multi-charged, positive buffer, such as N,N,N’,N’-Tetramethyl-1,3-propanediamine (TMDAP), which acts as a bridge, linking the negatively-charged anion analytes to the negatively-charged column surface and 2) a mobile phase consisting mostly of organic solvent (such as MeCN) to minimize the formation of a solvation layer around the charged analytes. Other positively-charged buffers that can generate BIST™ include Calcium acetate and Magnesium acetate. Using this new and unique analysis method, these organic acids can be separated, retained, and detected through ELSD. This method is also compatible with Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) and CAD.

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Acetaminophen, Phenylephrine, and Ascorbic Acid

Acetaminophen (or paracetamol) is one of the most popular over-the-counter painkillers all over the world (in the US it is best known under the brand name Tylenol). Ascorbic acid (also known as Vitamin C) helps your body build up muscle, cartilage, and other important building blocks in your body. Phenylephrine is a common over-the-counter decongestant, but can also be used for pupil dilation and hemorrhoid treatment. While all of these compounds are available at your local pharmacy, Vitamin C intake can reduce the body’s ability to break down acetaminophen.

All three of these compounds can be measured at low UV. Using a Primsep S normal phase column and a mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN) with an Ammonium acetate (AmAc) buffer, these three compounds can be separated and UV detected at 270 nm. Varying the buffer concentration changes the order in which phenylephrine and ascorbic acid are retained. This method is compatible with Mass Spectrometry.

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Acetaminophen, Phenylephrine, and Ascorbic Acid

FlipLC™ is an alternative method to avoid the interference of most of the contaminants by the use of an isolation column and a high pressure switching valve before the separation column. This method allows sample cleaning and analyte separation in one automated process. The isolation column and the separation column should have orthogonal retention characteristics to operate efficiently in this setup. Mixed-mode columns with reverse phase and ion-exchange characteristics were used in this analysis.

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of  Ascorbic Acid, Sodium metabisulfite, Sodium bisulfite

Organic acids were separated on a HILIC/cation-exchange column in HILIC/anion-exclusion mode. This column can be used for analysis of polar compounds in HILIC mode. If compounds are ionizable, additional mode of interaction can be added (cation-exchange or anion-exclusion).

Ascorbic acid is a vital vitamin for humans. It also serves as an antioxidant. Dehydroascorbic acid is an oxidation product of ascorbic acid. Both molecules are very polar, and cannot be retained by reverse-phase mechanism. Generic method for HPLC separation of ascorbic and dehydroascorbic acid was developed on a Primesep SB mixed-mode HPLC column. Both compounds are well separated and produce excellent peak shape. Method can be used for analysis of both compounds in biofluids. Proteins from biofluids will not retain due to repulsion effect of the stationary phase. Compounds can be monitored by common detection techniques like UV, ELSD, CAD, and LC/MS.

Mixed-mode HPLC columns allow for separation of compounds with drastically different properties. In this application, highly hydrophilic ascorbic acid is retained and separated from highly hydrophobic retinol (Vitamin A) and Vitamin E Acetate. Ascorbic acid is retained by anion-exchange mechanism and hydrophobic compounds are retained by reversed-phase mechanism. Compounds are monitored by UV detection. Mobile phase is compatible with LC/MS and method can be used to monitor basic and acidic compounds in bio-fluids (serum, blood, urine, saliva, etc.)
Retinol (Vitamin A)  and Vitamin E Acetate

HPLC method for separation of active ingredients of drug/supplemental composition was developed on an Obelisc R trimodal HPLC column. Compounds are retained by combination of reversed-phase, cation-exchange and anion-exchange mechanisms. Compounds are well separated, and method can be used for quantitation of pyridoxine, ascorbic acid, niacinamide, pantothenic acid, caffeine and riboflavin in a mixture or as separate compounds in various complex mixtures. Various detection techniques can be applied for quantitation (ELSD, UV, LC/MS, Corona). This HPLC method can be adopted as general approach for analysis of active drug components in various formulations.

Citric acid, ascorbic acid, and EDTA are commonly used in food and pharmaceutical industry as preservatives. These compounds are very polar in nature. They are weak organic acids with limited UV activity. Retention and separation is achieved on HILIC mixed-mode Obelisc N column. All three compounds are retained by combination of strong HILIC and strong anion-exchange mechanisms. Separation can be monitored by ELSD, LC/MS, UV or Corona CAD. In contrast to other HILIC column, Obelisc N has two ionizable groups basic and acidic which provide ion-exchange interaction in addition to hydrophilic interaction. This allows to use less acetonitrile for HILIC separation.

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and Vitamins Group B are separated on Obelisc N mixed-mode column. Method can be used in quantitation and determination of polar vitamins in various formulations and dietary supplements. HPLC method can be based on UV, Evaporative Light Scattering Detection (ESLD), RI or MS detection. Effect of sample matrix can be eliminated by changing mobile phase conditions. Buffer concentration, buffer pH and amount of ACN will affect every vitamin differently due to difference in polar and ionic properties.

Ascorbic, methylmalonic and succinic are weak organic acids. Retention of these three acids is achieved on Primesep N column in HILIC mode using acetonitrile/water and ammonium acetate. Compounds are monitored by ELSD. Method can be used for determination of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), methylmalonic acid and succinic acid in various matrices. Other polar organic acids can be analyzed on this HILIC column.

Primesep B and B2 columns separate Vitamins C (ascorbic acid) and B2 (riboflavin) with tunable selectivity. Peak order reversal is exhibited on these two columns with the same mobile phases due to their different polarity. The HPLC separation uses a mobile phase of water, acetonitrile (MeCN, ACN) and either formic or acetic acid (HOAc) with UV detection at 250 nm.
