Because of the initial current problems due to the formation of precipitates intothe capillary during the derivatization reaction, a washing step with an organic solvent asDMSO between injections was necessary. Different approaches were also investigated toenhance the sensitivity of detection. A derivatization procedure, where plugs of ACN,derivatizing agent (10mM 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate), andsample in borate (1:1 v/v) were injected in tandem (2, 3, and 6 s, respectively, at 50 mbar),was selected because it enabled to obtain the most sensitive and reproducible results.Appropriate analytical characteristics (linearity, LOD and LOQ, precision, absence ofmatrix interferences, and accuracy) were obtained for this method. Finally, the optimizedmethod was successfully applied to the determination of the enantiomers of arginine,lysine, and ornithine in food samples of different complexities (dietary supplements andwines).
