Abstract:
The retention behavior of 3-(1-anthroyl)bile acids together with bile acid glucuronides, sulfates, and 12-dehydro derivatives is examined by the addition of cyclodextrin to the mobile phase in reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The data suggest that the functional group at the 12 position of the steroid moiety may be the important factor for the formation of the inclusion complex from the solute and cyclodextrin. The separation of these bile acid derivatives is much improved by this inclusion chromatography.
