| Abstract: | In addition to most chlorophylls and their derivatives, monovinyl and divinyl chlorophyll species were separated by high-performance liquid chromatography, using a polyethylene column and a simple elution with aqueous acetone. Peak retention and resolution of the pigment separation were greatly increased by increasing the polarity of the mobile phase and also by decreasing the column temperature. Polyethylene chromatography showed chlorophyll separation behavior similar to that of the octadecyl silica column, but it showed no adsorption of the pigment species containing free carboxylic acid groups, enabling the complete separation of chlorophylls and their derivatives. Polyethylene is a superior alternative stationary phase to the known reversed-phase materials for chlorophyll separation and analysis. |
