Fluoxetine (Prozac), Astec Application Report 156
Fluoxetine (Prozac), CAS No 54910-89-3 an antidepressant drug was separated into its two respective enantiomers by isocratic elution in around 20 minutes by reversed phase HPLC on an Astec Chirobiotic V column (250 x 4.6mm, Part No. 11024) using methanol, acetic acid, TEA (100:0.02:0.01). The enantiomers were detected by UV at 254nm.
In HPLC, ultraviolet (UV) detectors measure absorption of radiation from chromophores in eluted compounds over the range 190-400nm.
Astec (Advanced Separation Technologies) is a leader in the production and sale of chiral chromatography columns for LC and capillary GC.
