Abstract
A rapid, high resolution, and low sample consumption CZE method is developed for peptide nucleic acid (PNA) analysis for the first time. 30% v/v acetonitrile in PNA sample and 20% v/v acetonitrile in 50 mM borax-boric acid (pH8.7) as BGE were employed after optimization. The calibration curves were linear for PNA concentration ranging from 1 to 50μmol/L. LOD and LOQ of PNA were 0.2 and 1.0 μmol/L, respectively. Since the commercially available reagent gives rise to huge PNA peak and an apparent impurity peak, the purity of PNA was evaluated to be about 81.4% by CZE method, obviously lower than the supplier's purity value of 99.9% evaluated by RP-HPLC, and also lower than 94.8% determined with RP-HPLC by our research group. The CZE method takes only 5 min, needs only 90 nL PNA, much less than 20 min and 20 μL PNA in RP-HPLC method. Moreover, the CZE method is applicable for the analysis of glutamic acid modified and lysine modified PNAs, they show different migration time with their corresponding complementary PNAs. Our results show CZE provides a new choice for PNA and modified PNA analysis, also their purity or quality evaluation.
