Technical Abstract: High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is an analytical method that uses a liquid pumping system to accurately deliver solvents through a column or columns each packed with particles of a specific size (1.5- to 10- m) and with specific bonded phases. The end result is the ability to separate complex mixtures in minutes. HPLC is a superb tool as it is complementary and often superior to previous methods for characterization of complex cereal proteins. This chapter describes the reversed-phase and ion-exchange HPLC separations of gluten monomers. It summarizes the hundreds of reports that describe such studies; with references to more comprehensive reviews and provides protocols for these separations.
