Abstract

A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method is described for the HPLC analysis of major phospholipids in soy lecithin. The method entails dissolving soy lecithin in chloroform prior to analysis. The HPLC determination uses a normal phase column and a mobile phase of acetonitrilemethanol-H3PO4 with detection at 205 nm. The data presented illustrates that the method is rapid, accurate and precise for the determination of phospholipid in soy lecithin.
