hi there.
i am a beginner and operating agilent HPLC-1200 series analysing amino acids with column, 5 um, 2.1x200 mm. i am facing a serious problem when peaks of histidine and glycine merges, sometimes in standard also,but what to do in samples.. i am using TEA & THF IN BUFFER BUT STILL GETTING POOR RESSOLUTION .
how can i quantitates both the peaks, how authentic is to quantitate manually using peak split tool.
thanks
AVINASH

hi Avinash,
what is the column chemistry you are using, detector and what are other amino acids present in sample.

hello vijay,
conditions are as below......
Column= amino acid column 5 um, 2.1x200 mm
Derivatizing agents= OPA & FMOC
Detector= FLD (fluorescence detector)
Plasma , urine & CSF samples are diluted with N/10 HCL in ratio 1:3, but not standard
Mobile Phase= mobile phase A(sodium acetate trihydrate+7.2+methanol+water)
mobile phase B(sodium acrtate trihydtate+water+TEA+ph=7.2+THF)
Run time= 25 min. with mobile phase A+ 5 min post run with mobile phase B
Pure amino acids standard of 25 pico mol contains 17 amino acids =
aspartic acid
glutamic acid
serine
histidine
glycine
threonine
alanine
arginine
tyrosine
cysteine
valine
metheonine
isoleusine
leusine
lysine
proline
of which histidine and glycine are merged.
