title: Separation of Chlorophylls c(1) and c(2) from Pigment Extracts of Pavlova gyrans by Reversed-Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography.
abstract: Chlorophylls c(1) and c(2) have been separated from total pigment extracts of the alga Pavlova gyrans Butcher using a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography system. Pigments were separated on a 5 micrometer C(18) column (25 centimeters x 4.6 millimeters) using a gradient of methanol-acetonitrile-water. Other photosynthetic pigments were also well resolved by the system used. The separation system described may replace current thin layer chromatography methods for qualitative and quantitative determination of chlorophyll c species.
