a more simple way: t1 = strsplit('A, B, C, D', ',');

Here's a solution that will cut up the string at commas, semicolons, or white spaces, and that will work for strings of any length

string = 'A, BB, C'

tmp = regexp(string,'([^ ,:]*)','tokens');
out = cat(2,tmp{:})


out = 

    'A'    'BB'    'C'

For your specific example try: 

cellstr(strread('A, B, C, D','%c,'))'
