Tryptic peptides, high-speed separation

A high-speed separation of tryptic peptides of horse cytochrome c is shown in Figure 6. As the temperature and flow rate were increased, the separation substantially improved, an observation consistent with data demonstrating that conformational issues may be increasingly important factors in peak broadening as the time scale of the chromatography approaches that... 

Figure 6 High-speed tryptic fingerprint. Horse cytochrome c was digested with trypsin and the peptide chromatographed in acetonitrile water 0.1% TFA at various temperatures and flow rates on a 15 x 0.2-cm PS-DVB column packed with 3-p, 300-A particles, (a) 26°C and 0.5 ml/min. (b) 42°C and 0.7 ml/min. (c) 70°C and 1.1 ml/min. Detection at 220 nm. Note that the resolution rises with the speed of separation.89 (From Swadesh, ]., BioTechniques, 9, 626, 1990.
