Abstract: | A convenient method for the rapid and sensitive automated analysis of uronic acids, based on high-performance anion-exchange chromatography on a Hitachi 2633 column and photometric as well as fluorimetric postcolumn labeling with 2-cyanoacetamide, has been developed. This method allows the simultaneous determination of 1-1000 nmol of D-mannuronic and D-galacturonic acids and 5-1000 nmol of L-iduronic and D-glucuronic acids in approx 70 min with high precision by photometric monitoring. In fluorimetric monitoring the linearity range was 1-1000 nmol for all these uronic acids, but reproducibility was rather low at the lowest limit of linearity. Application of this method to the analysis of component uronic acids in some polyuronides has suggested the inadequacy of generally accepted conditions for hydrolysis. |
