Lactoferrin is a protein found in many mammalian milks, especially in the first breast milks. In this application, a supplement containing lactoferrin was analyzed using a polymer-base reversed phase column, Asahipak C4P-50 4D. C4P-50 4D was proved to effectively detect lactoferrin in a supplement. It also provided a good linear calibration curve in the concentration range 20 to 4,000 mg/L.
(Sample Preparation)
1) Grind three tablets of a commercial lactoferrin supplement in a mortar.
2) Measure out 0.2 g of the powder and add 50 mL of ultra-pure water.
Sonicate for 10 minutes.
3) Centrifuge and filter it with a No.5B filtering paper.
4) Discard the first 10 mL and collect the rest.
5) Filter using a 0.45-µm membrane filter and use it as the injection sample.
