Application

  • Improvement of Determination Method of Acarbose Tablets by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with Diode Array Detector: This study enhances the HPLC methodologies using Sodium 1-octanesulfonate for the analysis of acarbose tablets, emphasizing improved accuracy and reliability in pharmaceutical testing (S XU, 2017).
  • Simultaneous determination of fangchinoline and tetrandrine in Qi-Fang-Xi-Bi-granules by RP-HPLC: Demonstrates the utility of Sodium 1-octanesulfonate in enhancing the chromatographic separation of traditional Chinese medicinal components, providing a basis for better quality control in herbal medicine (XG Lu et al., 2015).
  • Application of achiral–chiral two‐dimensional HPLC for separation of phenylalanine and tryptophan enantiomers: The use of Sodium 1-octanesulfonate facilitated the enantioselective separation of amino acids, critical for the pharmaceutical analysis of dietary supplements (A Lomenova et al., 2021).
