HPLC Separation of Amino Acids, Bases, Acids, and Neutrals on Obelisc R
Separating basic, acidic and zwitterionic compounds in one run in reverse-phase HPLC can be very challenging. The methods might require the use of ion-pairing reagents and complex gradients that can make MS-compatibility difficult. Obelisc R column which has both positive and negative ion-pairs embedded in the stationary phase allows for fine tuning and separation of a wide range of compounds with different ionic properties. Acids, bases, amino acids and neutral compounds were separated isocratically in one run using a simple MS-compatible mobile phase of acetonitrile (ACN) and water with Ammonium Acetate (AmAc) buffer. Can also be UV detected at 250nm.

HPLC Separation of Amino Acids on Obelisc R Column
Closely related compounds like amino acids can be separated on an Obelisc R column by various buffers depending on the amount of baseline separation required. By choosing different buffers, the separation between compounds can be adjusted based on application needs, especially those that require low organic concentration in the mobile phase. UV detection at 250nm.

HPLC Separation of Phenylalanine, Glucosamine, and Tryptophan on Mixed-Mode Column
The Separation of Phenylalanine, Glucosamine and Tryptophan demonstrates how the small changes to the organic and/or buffer concentrations in the mobile phase affect the retention of compounds on a mixed-mode column by hydrophobic, ion-exchange and ion-exclusion mechanisms in reverse-phase HPLC chromatography.

HPLC Separation of Biogenic Amines on Primesep 100 Column
Tryptophan is an essential amino acid used in the synthesis of proteins. Tryptamine is structurally similar to tryptophan. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter derived from tryptophan. Dimethyltryptamine and 5-MeO-DMT are psychedelic substances derived from tryptamine. All the compounds have similar structures and can present difficulties to separation in reverse-phase HPLC. They can be separated using the Primesep 100 mixed-mode column in gradient analysis with acetonitrile (ACN) and water mobile phase with ammonium formate (AmFm) buffer, making the method MS-compatible. The amines can also be UV detected at 280nm.
