Use the .split(',') function. It splits a string into an array of substrings that were separated by ',' character, and return a new array.For more info about split function please visit this link.

 var a = ["PG,PGR"]
     a= a[0].split(',');

try this : iterate array and use split(",") which will return you new array.

var a = ["PG,PGR"];
var newArray = new Array();
$.each(a , function(i,v){
   newArray.push(v.split(",")); 
});
alert(newArray);

The following can handle arrays like ["PG,PGR","a","asd,asdsa"] also.

function load(){
    var a = ["PG,PGR","a","asd,asdsa"];
    document.getElementById('test').value = a.join(',').split(',');
}

<input id="test" value="" type="text">
<input value="Load" type="button" onclick="load()">

Try this:

var newArray = new Array(["PG,PGR"]);

$.each(newArray, function( index, value ) {
  alert( value + ",");
});
