    Area of Science:

    • Analytical Chemistry
    • Biochemistry
    • Lipidomics

    Background:

    • Phospholipids are crucial components of cell membranes.
    • Accurate separation and quantification of phospholipids are vital for understanding cellular processes.
    • Existing methods may lack speed or resolution for comprehensive phospholipid analysis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a rapid and efficient method for separating prevalent phospholipids.
    • To achieve baseline resolution of key phospholipid classes using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
    • To validate the method's recovery and sensitivity for cellular lipid extracts.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of an isocratic HPLC method utilizing a silica column.
    • Optimization of solvent composition (acetonitrile-methanol-sulfuric acid) and flow rate (1 ml/min).
