A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with pulsed amperometric detection (PAD) was used for the determination of the acid hydrolysis products of L-iduronic acid containing oligosaccharides isolated from biological sources. This HPLC-PAD method was compared with gas chromatographic (GLC) methods. Since acid hydrolysis of oligosaccharides can produce a number of products, several uronic acid derivatives were prepared by chemical synthesis. These well characterized standards in conjunction with mass spectrometry allowed for the identification of most of the products of methanolysis or hydrolysis of glycosamino-glycans, which included chondroitin sulfates A and B (dermatan sulfate), heparin, and hyaluronic acid. (4 M) HCl in methanol 100 degrees C for 24 h was found to be optimum for GLC and 1 M aqueous HCl for 4 h at 100 degrees C for HPLC-PAD. All of the monosaccharides, hexosamines, and uronic acids could be separately identified in a single chromatographic step using either technique. Good resolution, high sensitivity (low microgram samples) and rapid analysis makes these methods particularly useful for the determination of small amounts of glycosaminoglycans and other glycoconjugates found in samples isolated from biological sources. These two techniques are specifically designed to allow the qualitative determination of the carbohydrate content and composition of samples whose carbohydrate composition and content is completely unknown.
