Inulin (1) (KS-806)

Inulin was analyzed using SUGAR KS-806 (a column for saccharides analysis) with the two kinds of the eluent. When inulin was analyzed with H₂O as the eluent, Inulin was eluted later in order to that inulin was absorbed to the gel material and further some peaks are appeared. On the other hand, when 0.05M NaNO₃ aqueous solution is used as the eluent, we could obtain the good peak shape of inulin. So we recommend using a saline aqueous solution as the eluent for the analysis of inulin when KS-800 series columns are used.
