Abstract
In order to separate the potential arsenite metabolites methylarsonous acid and dimethylarsinous acid from arsenite, arsenate, methylarsonic acid and dimethylarsinic acid, the pH-dependent retention behaviour of all six arsenic compounds was studied on a Hamilton PRP-X100 anion-exchange column with 30 mM phosphate buffers (pH 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9) containing 20% (v/v) methanol as mobile phase and employing an inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ICP–AES) as the arsenic-specific detector. Baseline separation of dimethylarsinic acid, methylarsonous acid, methylarsonic acid, arsenate and dimethylarsinous acid was achieved with a 30 mmol dm−3 phosphate buffer (pH 5)–methanol mixture (80:20, v/v) in 25 min. Arsenite is not baseline-separated from dimethylarsinic acid under these conditions. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
