Hello
I read an article in which was described a method for HPLC detection of lipase activity.

The amounts of products and residual substrate were determined from the peak areas of the HPLC-separated compounds with reference to appropriate standards. The elution of the samples occurred at 1.3 ml/min in 100 mM TFK, pH 6.0."

I tried to find this TFK - trifluoromethylketone - but I cant find a place who sells it.

I wondered if you might have an idea, maybe to use some other material...

The sample - 3 palmitoyl sn glycerol (for the calibration curve) is dissolved in chloroform.

By the way, I got a different column - Fortis H2o - our salesman said it will fit.


Thank you in advance, Adi
