The experimental conditions for labeling reaction and HPLC analysis of the neuropeptide derivatives were optimized. It was found that the labeling reatction could be achieved at 37 ℃ for one hour in H3BO3-NaCl-Na2B4O7 buffer(pH=8.3) with a labeling ratio of about 80%. The derivative mixture from the three peptides can be separated in a 40 min linear gradient from 60% to 20% of solvent A(100 mmol/L sodium acetate, pH=5.0) and from 40% to 80% of solvent B[60%(volume fraction) acetonitrile in water]. The resulting labeled products were also confirmed by MALDI-TOF-MS analysis. Compared with the native neuropeptides, the resulting labeled products have a longer absorption and fluorescence wavelengths, which is beneficial to the effective elimination of background fluorescence interference from biological matrix.展开更多
