This detection method has the advantages of high sensitivity and simplified operation process, which can quickly obtain detailed amino acid analysis results to help customers further explore the application of L-4-Hydroxyproline and related L-4-Hydroxyproline metabolite research.

Overview

L-4-Hydroxyproline is a non-essential amino acid mainly present in human protein collagen, and its content in mammalian collagen is as high as 13.5%. Hydroxyproline is used as the main component of structural proteins (such as collagen, connective tissue, plant cell walls, tendons and ligaments) and provides skin elasticity. At the same time, it is often used as a food flavor enhancer and the field of nutritional supplements. This amino acid has a special feature that it is not incorporated into collagen during the biosynthesis at the ribosome level, but is formed by post-translational modification of proline through enzymatic hydroxylation. Taking advantage of the feature that hydroxyproline has the highest content in collagen, the catabolism of collagen in the body can be understood through the determination of hydroxyproline. However, there are still many challenges in the determination of hydroxyproline. Fortunately, high performance liquid chromatography combined with UV detector detection can realize the accurate determination of L-4-hydroxyproline, using phenyl isothiocyanate (PITC) as the pre-column derivatizing agent, and using external standard method to determine L-4 -Hydroxyproline is tested, and the chromatographic-based method has a high throughput, which can meet the needs of high-throughput analysis.
