| Abstract: | Some iodoamino acids have been separated and determined by high pressure liquid chromatography on octadecylsilane reverse phase packing with a mobile phase consisting of methanol, potassium phosphate monobasic, and orthophosphoric acid at 44 degrees C. The method separates and quantitates mixtures of 3,5-diiodothyronine, liothyronine, isoliothyronine, and levothyroxine. The procedure provides an accurate, sensitive, and rapid estimation of decomposition and/or impurities in standards in approximately 30 min, at the less than 75 pmole level, using an ultraviolet detector at 254 nm. |
