摘要

p-Hydrazinobenzenesulfonic acid was explored as an ultraviolet labeling reagent for capillary electrophoresis of mono-, di- and trisaccharides. The labeling reaction that produces p-sulfophenylhydrazines took less than 8 min, and introduced both chromphore and charged groups into the carbohydrate molecules. The derivatives of nine mono- and disaccharides were completely separated in 9 min using a 100 mM borate buffer at pH 10.24. On-column UV detection at 200 nm allowed the detection of glucose with a mass detection limit of 17.6 fmol or a concentration limit of 3.6 microM. Reproducible quantification of carbohydrates was achieved in the concentration range of 0.1-9.1 mM in reaction solution. The method was applied successfully to determine the monosaccharide composition of laminaran.
