The phenylthiohydantoin (PTH) derivatives of protein amino acids have been separated by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on a fully end-capped C18 column using an isocratic solvent system. The developing solvent was 0.01M sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.5) containing 39.5% acetonitrile and 0.02% sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS). With an automated liquid chromatography equipped with a dual-channel detector, operating at 254 and 313 nm, the present isocratic separation system was quite useful for routine microanalysis of PTH-amino acids released with a “gas-phase” sequencer. The time for one run was _??_23min and the limit of analysis _??_2.5 pmol of a PTH-amino acid.
