has been established for the determination of uronate residues in glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) such as dermatan sulfate (DS), heparin (HP), and heparan sulfate (HS). Because of variation in the sulfonation positions in DS, HP, or HS, interpretation of spectra is difficult. Solvolysis was applied to rem

β¦ Synopsis
A 'gas chromatographic method for the quantitative analysis of iduronic acid and glucuronic acid in sulfated glycosaminoglycans (acid mucopolysaccharides, AMPS) of the type of dermatan sulfate has been developed. Methanolysis and deamination-methanolysis were used for the depolymerization of AMPS. Both iduronic acid and glucuronic acid were stable under the methanolytic conditions. More than 90% of the uranic acids was recovered by the present technique from dermatan sulfates and chondroitin sulfate A. The method has been applied to the analysis of the relative proportions of iduronic acid and ghtcuronic acid in dermatan sulfate fractions from various mammalian tissues. 164

Several investigators have reported that ascorbic acid can be analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) following conversion of the parent compound to its trimethylsilyl ether (l-5). We have applied this procedure to the analysis of ascorbic acid in tissues and in this report describe the techniqu
The reduction of uranic acids in glycosaminoglycans (GAGS) prior to depolymerization reactions is one way in which the uranic acid content of polysaccharides can be studied without major losses. The obtained monosaccharides can be recovered from the subsequent depolymerization with a yield better th
The analysis of bile acids by spectrophotometric methods is often associated with significant errors from contaminating compounds (1, 2). Furthermore, the response of dihydroxy-and trihydroxycholanic acids to various calorimetric and spectrophotometric methods is variable (3). Partition chromatograp
