title: Utilization of cyclodextrin complexation for separation of E, A, and B prostaglandins by ion-exchange liquid chromatography.
abstract: Application of cyclodextrin complexation to the separation of E-, A-, and B-type prostaglandins by ion-exchange liquid chromatography is demonstrated. The addition of alpha-or beta-cyclodextrin into the mobile phase on an anion-exchange support decreased the retention times of the prostaglandins significantly because of soluble complex formation. Chromatographic separation behavior is discussed on the basis of the stability of the inclusion complex. A rapid and sensitive method for the separation and quantification of the prostaglandins, using beta-cyclodextrin in the mobile phase, is described.
