An anion-exchange HPLC method coupled with conductimetric detection was developed for the analysis of UDP-sugars, nucleotides, and sugar phosphates, each in a single chromatographic run. The analysis was applicable to concentrations over 50 pmol. The utility of this technique was demonstrated by the

✦ Synopsis
Separation of UDP-glucose from UDP-galactose, of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine from UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine, of UDP-glucuronate from UDP-galacturonate, or of UDP-glucosamine from UDP-galactosamine was achieved within lo-45 min by isocratic anion-exchange highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a flow rate of 2 ml/min. The eluants were composed of borate as complex-forming and eluting agent and of glycerol for protection of the alkali-labile silica packing of the column. This borate HPLC was suitable for the analysis of 4'epimeric UDP-sugars in the range of 2 to 100 nmol. The applicability of this technique was demonstrated by determination of the relative amounts of 4'epimeric UDP-amino sugars formed in rat liver after administration of Dgalactosamine. Since a high salt content of UDP-sugar samples can interfere with borate HPLC, desalting was performed on a l-ml C,s cartridge using triethylammonium hydrogen carbonate buffer. This procedure enabled the complete separation of various nucleotides from salts within 10 min prior to HPLC.

A method for the quantitation of picomole amounts of neutral and amino sugars in glycoconjugates was developed. Glycoconjugates were hydrolyzed with a mixture of equal amounts of 4 M trifluoroacetic acid and 4 M hydrochloric acid, and the free amino groups were acetylated. Sugars were coupled with 2
