ANP Retention of a Hydrophobic Compound
This Application Note shows an example of a hydrophobic analyte retention in Aqueous Normal Phase (ANP / HILIC Like Gradient) HPLC. Although Cyclobenzaprine has a logP of approximately 4.6–4.9, it is well retained with a Symmetrical Peak Shape.
Data from two production lots of Columns is shown to illustrate the Reproducibility of the Method.

Sample Preparation: 10mg strength Cyclobenzaprine Tablet was ground and added to a 25mL volumetric flask. A diluent of 50:50 Solvent A / Solvent B was added and the flask was sonicated for 30 minutes. It was then diluted to mark, mixed, and filtered with a 0.45μm Nylon Syringe Filter (MicroSolv Tech Corp.). A portion of the filtrate was diluted 1:10 for HPLC Injections.
t0: 0.9 minutes
Note: Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant and used to treat Fibromyalgia. Cyclobenzaprine is structurally related to first-generation tricyclic antidepressants. It is marketed under the trade name Flexeril®.
