چکیده

The photodynamic therapeutic agent temoporfin, 5,10,15,20-tetra(m-hydroxyphenyl)chlorin (m-THPC) conjugated with poly(ethylene glycol) 2000 (PEG), has been analysed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), linked to electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Sufficient separation of m-THPC-PEG 2000 oligomers was achieved, enabling determination of molecular mass. The use of ESI-MS alone could not achieve this, because of too great a complexity in the mass spectrum, resulting from the presence of four PEG 2000 side chains with a wide molecular mass distribution. The technique is applicable to similar PEG conjugated compounds.
