Abstract
An analytical method for the determination of trace amounts of Galaxol ide(R) (HHCB) by HPLC is presented. It is based on the separation of H HCB in different samples by a C18-column and a gradient elution by wat er and acetonitrile, both containing some acetic acid. The detection i s carried out with a combination of a fast scanning UV detector and a fast scanning fluorescence detector. The fluorescence detection limit is 5 mu g/L HHCB without sample pretreatment. HHCB adsorbed on solids or suspended solids can be extracted by ethanol.
