Analysis of D-Galactose on Zodiac HST S2 Column

Galactose, a monosaccharide sugar essential in biological processes and a key component of lactose, is significant in healthcare and biotechnology, particularly in addressing metabolic disorders like galactosemia.

Galactose can be retained and analyzed using the Zodiac HST S2 mixed-mode stationary phase column. The method utilizes an isocratic mobile phase of water, acetonitrile (MeCN), and formic acid as a buffer, delivering high resolution and peak symmetry. It is compatible with various detection methods, including ELSD, CAD, and ESI for mass spectrometry.
