    Abstract:
    High performance anion exchange chromatography (HPAEC) with pulsed amperometric detection (PAD) was optimized for the analysis of oligosaccharides derived from the extracellular matrix component hyaluronan. Using this sensitive approach, the separation of oligosaccharides consisting of two (molecular weight ca. 0.8 kDa) up to 25-30 (molecular weight: ca. 9.5-11.4 kDa) disaccharide moieties was possible. Standard oligosaccharides (comprising 2-4 repetitive disaccharides) were detectable at very low amounts of 0.2-0.3 pmol (20-30 nM). Including 10 min of column equilibration, a complex mixture of low molecular weight hyaluronan can be analyzed within 40 min. The HPAEC method was successfully applied to the study of the size-dependency of both the action of bovine testicular hyaluronidase (BTH) and the precipitation of hyaluronan by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), a physicochemical reaction often used for the determination of hyaluronan and hyaluronidase activity.
