title: Dual-detector-post-column reactor system for the detection of isoenzymes separated by high-performance liquid chromatography. II. Evaluation and application to lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes.
abstract: We describe the separation of lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes by high-performance liquid chromatography-anion-exchange columns and their quantitation by a computer-controlled, dual-detector post-column reaction system. The recoveries from the separation column were ca. 90%. The dynamic range of the system was linear over about three orders of magnitude from 3 to 1500 U/l. The coefficient of variation for isoenzyme peak areas was ca. 2%. The method is compared to the classical electrophoresis measurement and shows increased speed, resolution, precision and accuracy.
