Abstract: | A new method for the preparative isolation of individual amino acids on a milligram scale based on reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) after pre-column derivatization with carbobenzoxychloride (ZCl) has been developed. The chromatographic procedure was tested by the investigation of jack bean urease hydrolysate. The method has been applied to the preparative separation of Z-amino acids (from 10 up to 16) obtained from protein hydrolysates of various sources (green microalgae, blue-green algae, halophilic and methylotrophic microorganisms) and was proved to be reliable by the separation of deuterated amino acids (enrichment 97–99%) from Methylobacillus flagellatum (due to the bioconversion of CD3OD and D2O). Independent of the biological source of the protein, the amino acids were isolated with high recovery (from 68% up to 89%) and chromatographic purity (from 96% up to 99%). The method was also applied for the isolation of phenylalanine and leucine excreted by amino-acid overproducing microorganisms. |
