Abstract
ABSTRACTIn this work, capillary electrophoresis with Gaussian distribution‐based peak fitting for improved peak resolution for simultaneous quantitative analysis of chondroitin sulfate (CS) and dermatan sulfate (DS) was developed for the first time. The effects of different pH, voltage, and peak shapes on the peak fitting were investigated. The results indicate that separation conditions that affect peak shape have a significant impact on peak fitting. Under optimized separation conditions, the peak fitting achieves high accuracy and precision, the relative standard deviation (n = 5) of peak area and migration time of CS and DS were 1.1%, 1.8% and 0.94%, 0.84%, respectively. Furthermore, the results obtained by peak fitting were close to real values. The developed method was used to analyze the purity of CS. The results had a high consistency with the labeled value; furthermore, the peak fitting could point out the number of possible impurities. The developed method has good potential for the analysis of other glycosaminoglycans with peak overlap.
