Abstract
Water- and fat-soluble vitamins were separated on a MetaChem Polaris C18-A ( 150 mm×4.6 mm, 3 μm particle size) in a single run using combined isocratic and linear gradient elution with a mobile phase consisting of 0.010% trifluoroacetic acid of pH 3.9 (solvent A) and methanol (solvent B) at the flow rate 0.7 ml min −1. A linear gradient profile (A:B) started at 95:5 and was constant in the first 4 min, then linearly decreased up to 2:98 during the next 6 min, then it was constant in the next 20 min and finally linearly increased up to 95:5 ratio of water phase in the last 5 min of the separation. The most suitable detection wavelength for simultaneous vitamin determination was 280 nm. The method was applied for the solid sample of pharmaceutical preparation (B-Komplex), fortified powdered drinks (multi-vitamin) and food samples. The results were in good agreement with the declared values.
