With Asahipak GS-320 HQ (a multimode column), proteins and nucleic acid components of high molecular weights are separated by the GFC mode, they elute all together at the Vo position. One of the advantages of GS-320 HQ is, for samples consisting of low molecular weight compounds coexisting with those of high molecular weight, that the low molecular weight compounds can be analyzed directly without removing high molecular weight compounds such as proteins.

Purine base and its final metabolite, uric acid, were separated using multi-mode column, Asahipak GS-320 HQ. Purine base is a general name for compounds (nucleotide, nucleoside, base) containing purine structure and found in most foods. Through metabolic pathways, purines are broken down to uric acid, when exceeded amount of uric acid is accumulated in body, it may cause gout.
For the analysis of purines in food, first, homogenized food is freeze-dried and then dissolved in 70%H2O2. By this hydrolysis process neutralizes the purines into purine bases.
Sample : Standard purin bases
