Potential of human serum albumin as chiral selector of basic drugs in affinity electrokinetic chromatography-partial filling technique
2006
The enantiomeric resolution of compounds using HSA by means of affinity EKC (AEKC)-partial filling technique is the result of a delicate balance between different experimental variables such as protein concentration, running pH (background electrophoretic buffer (BGE), protein, and compound solutions), and plug length. In this paper, the possibility of using HSA as chiral selector for enantioseparation of 28 basic drugs using this methodology is studied. The effect of the physicochemical parameters, the structural properties of compounds, and compound-HSA protein binding percentages over their chiral resolution with HSA is outlined. Based on the results obtained, a decision tree is proposed…
Opioid analgetics retention–pharmacologic activity models using biopartitioning micellar chromatography
2002
Opioids are drugs used in medicine for pain control. In this paper, retention-pharmacokinetics and retention-pharmacodynamics relationships of opioids are proposed and statistically validated. These models are based on the compound retention in the biopartitioning micellar chromatography system (BMC), a new methodology which has successfully been used to develop QRAR models for many other families of compounds. The obtained results are compared to the traditional QSAR models using lipophilicity data. The adequacy of QRAR models is due to the fact that the characteristics of the compounds such as the hydrophobicity, electronic charge and steric effects determine both their retention in BMC a…
Micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography for therapeutic drug monitoring of carbamazepine and its main metabolites.
1998
In carbamazepine (CBZ) therapy the concomitant monitoring of concentrations of CBZ and its metabolites is strictly recommended, primarily to avoid toxic side effects. Currently, clinical routine monitoring of CBZ is accomplished by high-performance liquid chromatography or immunological methods. In this study a micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatographic (MECC) method was developed for routine drug monitoring of CBZ and its main metabolites, carbamazepine 10,11-diol and carbamazepine 10,11-epoxide, in human serum or plasma samples. The MECC method enabled baseline separation of all analytes within 2.5 min. The assay revealed sufficient precision and sensitivity and the results of eith…
Discontinuous electrokinetic chromatography of parabens using different substituted resonances as pseudostationary phases
1999
Resorcarene derivatives, negatively charged even at moderate pH, were synthesized and employed as pseudostationary phases to achieve mobilities exceeding that of the electroosmotic flow. Under these conditions, a discontinuous electrolyte system was developed which allows the separation of four uncharged homologous 4-hydroxybenzoic esters (parabens) within a zone of resorcarene electrolyte, and the detection of these UV active compounds in a resorcarene-free zone, free from the high UV background absorbance of the resorcarenes. Resorcarenes, with differently charged functionalities (carboxylate and phosphate groups) to provide the electrophoretic mobility and with alkyl residues of differen…
Retention-structure relationship studies for some steroidal hormones in micellar liquid chromatography
2000
The retention behavior in a C18 column of fourteen steroidal hormones (clostebol acetate, dehydrotestosterone, dydrogesterone, medroxyprogesterone, medroxyprogesterone acetate, methandienone, methyltestosterone, nandrolone, nandrolone decanoate, progesterone, testosterone, testosterone enanthate, testosterone propionate and, stanozolol) with pure micellar mobile phases prepared from sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and hybrid mobile phases comprising SDS-acetonitrile and SDS-pentanol, was correlated with their octanol-water partition coefficients. Similar correlations were found with retention data obtained by other authors in gas chromatography, conventional reversed-phase liquid chromatograp…
Enantioresolution in electrokinetic chromatography-complete filling technique using sulfated gamma-cyclodextrin. Software-free topological anticipati…
2016
Few papers have tried to predict the resolution ability of chiral selectors in capillary electrophoresis for the separation of the enantiomers of chiral compounds. In a previous work, we have used molecular information available on-line to establish enantioresolution levels of basic compounds using highly sulfated β-CD (HS-β-CD) as chiral selector in electrokinetic chromatography-complete filling technique (EKC-CFT). The present study is a continuation of this previous work, introducing some novelties. In this work, the ability of sulfated γ-cyclodextrin (S-γ-CD) as chiral selector in EKC-CFT is modelled for the first time. Thirty-three structurally unrelated cationic and neutral compounds …
Evaluation and comparison of tailor-made stationary phases based on spherical silica-based beads for capillary electrochromatography via peptide sepa…
2004
Small cyclic peptides have been employed to elucidate the performance of novel sorbents as stationary phases in capillary electrochromatography (CEC). In this paper chain length dependencies for ordinary liquid chromatographic sorbents are reported together with findings acquired on beads specifically designed to suit CEC. The latter, tailor-made, spherical, porous silica exhibits a distinguished surface modification to meet the criteria anticipated to enhance performance profiles in CEC. With well-characterised peptides resembling the analytes, probing of the CEC system in a systematic manner (predominantly via the organic modifier content of the background electrolyte (BE)) reveals insigh…
Modeling the chiral resolution ability of highly sulfated β-cyclodextrin for basic compounds in electrokinetic chromatography
2013
Abstract Despite the fact that extensive research in the field of enantioseparations by capillary electrophoresis has been carried out, it is difficult to predict whether a concrete chiral selector would be useful for the separation of a racemic compound. Hence, several experimental effort is necessary to test the abilities of individual chiral selectors, usually by trial and error procedures. Thus, the enantioseparation of a new racemate becomes a time- and money-consuming task. In this work, the ability of highly sulfated β-cyclodextrin (HS-β-CD) as chiral selector in electrokinetic chromatography (EKC) is modeled for the first time, using exclusively directly-available structural data of…
Quantitation of hydrophobicity in micellar liquid chromatography
1999
Abstract Micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) is shown to be a promising technique for measuring the hydrophobicity of solutes. The presence of micelles has a profound effect on the chromatographic characteristics of reversed-phase columns. The linear relationships between the logarithm, log k , of the retention factor and such diverse properties as the number of carbon atoms in homologous series, octanol–water partition coefficients and solvatochromic parameters, which are observed in conventional reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC), are not usually valid in MLC. For series of compounds exhibiting a wide range of hydrophobicity, k itself is linearly related to these properties. The…
Influence of the addition of modifiers on solute-micelle interaction in hybrid micellar liquid chromatography
1998
In reversed-phase micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) organic modifiers are usually added to the mobile phase to modify the eluent strength and to increase the efficiency of the chromatographic peaks. The effect of the modifiers methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-pentanol, acetonitrile and tetrahydrofuran on the critical micelle concentration (cmc) of the anionic surfactant sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS) has been studied to enable understanding of the interactions between solute, micelles and bulk liquid in such hybrid eluents. Methanol, acetonitrile and tetrahydrofuran increased thecmc, whereas the other alcohols reduced its value. For butanol and pentanol, which partition into the…
