Bile acids. LXXII. High-performance liquid chromatographic analysis of bile acid coenzyme A derivatives.
The mobilities of coenzyme A and coenzyme A derivatives of cholate, chenodeoxycholate, deoxycholate, lithocholate, and their 5 alpha analogs were studied in reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. With a C18 Radial-PAK A cartridge (10-micron particles) and a solvent mixture of 2-propanol/10 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.0, 140:360), separation of the chenodeoxycholyl and deoxycholyl coenzyme A derivatives was not observed. An increase in ionic strength of the buffer to 50 mM afforded separation, which was markedly augmented with a C18 Radial-PAK A cartridge with 5-micron particles. Lowering the pH of the buffer to 5.5 did not materially change the separations regardless of the ionic strength. Quantitation was carried out to a lower level of 8.5 X 10(-12) mol.
