High-performance liquid chromatographic analysis with electrochemical detection of biogenic amines using microbore columns.
High-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC-ED) is a popular method for measuring biogenic amines, owing to its simplicity, versatility, sensitivity, and specificity. Recent developments in microbore column HPLC-ED have been facilitated by miniaturization of solvent delivery, column packing, sample injection and micro-flow cell construction. The aim of this paper is to present an overview of recent developments in microbore column HPLC-ED, in terms of advantages and limitations. This paper covers the recent advancements and important factors of HPLC-ED analysis of biogenic amines using microbore columns. Particular emphasis is placed on applying this technique to microdialysis, for which great sensitivity is required. Its potential in future biomedical applications is also discussed.
