Determination of 6-methyladenine in DNA by high-performance liquid chromatography
Journal of Chromatography
|January 21, 1979
Abstract:
A method for the determination of 6-methyladenine (6MA) by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has been developed. DNA bases were separated by using the strong cation-exchange resin Zipax SCX. Purine bases were obtained by hydrolysis and dialysis of DNA and analysed by HPLC. 6MA in DNA from Escherichia coli was determined by the proposed method. It is suggested that the method could be applicable to analyses of 6MA from other biological sources.
