Improved resolution of mono- and divinyl chlorophylls a and b and zeaxanthin and lutein in phytoplankton extracts using reverse phase C-8 HPLC
Year: 1997
Type: article
Abstract: A reverse phase HPLC (hlgh performance liquid chromatography) technique using a binary solvent system with a linear gradient on a Hypersilm MOS2 C-8 column is described.As well as the resolution of key chemotaxonom~c chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments, baseline separation of mono-and divinyl chlorophyll a and of lutein and zeaxanthin.and partial separation of mono-and dlvinyl chlorophyll b are a c h ~e v e d in a total analysis time of less than 30 min.The method provides an optimal balance between analyte resolutlon and sample throughput and IS hence well suited to the analysis of oceanographic samples.
