ABSTRACT
Hyaluronic acid (HA), a multi-functional material, has a high dispersion in molecular weight, and the functions of HA are determined through the size. Nevertheless, hyaluronic acid mixtures are not easily separated due to their polydispersity. In this study, a capillary electrophoresis strategy was developed for resolution of different molecular-weight HA without enzymatic digestion. Here, hyaluronic acid mixtures with low molecular weight (380 kD; LHA) and high molecular weight (2180 kD; HHA) were successfully resolved by the SDS integrated with low molecular-weight polymer in capillary electrophoresis. By optimizing experimental conditions, the separation of LHA and HHA was completed within 14 min. The optimal conditions were as follows the running buffer was 25 mM borate buffer (pH 9.75) containing 30 mM SDS and 10% polyethylene glycol (MW 8000); applied voltage was 20 kV (detector at cathode side) and separation temperature was set at 25 °C. The data of method validation showed that calibration plots were linear (r ≥ 0.9977) over a range of 10-50 µg/mL for LHA, and 40-200 µg/mL for HHA. In the evaluation of precision and accuracy for this method, the RSD and RE values were all less than 4.2%. This fascinating technique was successfully applied to the quality control of cosmetic and pharmaceutical containing different ratios of LHA and HHA, and it was feasible for serving as a tool to quantitatively analyze different sizes of HA for clinical survey.
