Capillary electrochromatography with novel stationary phases. IV. Retention behavior of glycosphingolipids on porous and non-porous octadecyl sulfonated silica.
In this investigation, capillary electrochromatography (CEC) with a novel stationary phase proved useful for the separation of neutral and acidic glycosphingolipids (GSLs). Four different gangliosides, namely G(M1a), G(D1a), G(D1b) and G(T1b), served as the acidic GSLs model solutes. The following four GSLs: galactosylceramide (GalCer), lactosylceramide (LacCer), globotriaosylceramide (Gb3Cer) and globotetraosylceramide (Gb4Cer) served as the typical neutral GSLs. The stationary phase, octadecyl sulfonated silica (ODSS), consisted of octadecyl functions bonded to a negatively charged layer containing sulfonic acid groups. Porous and non-porous ODSS stationary phases were examined. The retention behavior of the acidic and neutral GSLs was examined over a wide range of elution conditions, including the nature of the electrolyte and organic modifier and the pH of the mobile phase. The porous ODSS stationary phase yielded the separation of the four different gangliosides using a hydro-organic eluent of moderate eluent strength whereas the non-porous ODSS stationary phase permitted the separation of the four neutral GSLs with a mobile phase of relatively high eluent strength.
