Protein mapping by two-dimensional high performance liquid chromatography.
2000
Current developments in drug discovery in the pharmaceutical industry require highly efficient analytical systems for protein mapping providing high resolution, robustness, sensitivity, reproducibility and a high throughput of samples. The potential of two-dimensional (2D) HPLC as a complementary method to 2D-gel electrophoresis is investigated, especially in view of speed and repeatability. The method will be applied for proteins of a molecular mass <20 000 which are not well resolved in 2D-gel electrophoresis. The 2D-HPLC system described in this work consisted of anion- or cation-exchange chromatography in the first dimension and reversed-phase chromatography in the second dimension. We …
Determination of hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol by liquid chromatography for the quality control of cosmetic products based on olive extracts
2014
An analytical method for the simultaneous determination of hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol in different types of olive extract raw materials and cosmetic cream samples has been developed. The determination was performed by liquid chromatography with UV spectrophotometric detection. Different chromatographic parameters, such as mobile phase pH and composition, oven temperature and different sample preparation variables were studied. The best chromatographic separation was obtained under the following conditions: C18 column set at 35°C and isocratic elution of a mixture ethanol: 1% acetic acid solution at pH 5 (5:95, v/v) as mobile phase pumped at 1 mL min(-1). The detection wavelength was set at …
Development of a fully automated sequential injection solid-phase extraction procedure coupled to liquid chromatography to determine free 2-hydroxy-4…
2010
Abstract 2-Hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone and 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone-5-sulphonic acid, commonly known as benzophenone-3 (BZ3) and benzophenone-4 (BZ4), respectively, are substances widely used as UV filters in cosmetic products in order to absorb UV radiation and protect human skin from direct exposure to the deleterious wavelengths of sunlight. As with other UV filters, there is evidence of their percutaneous absorption. This work describes an analytical method developed to determine trace levels of free BZ3 and BZ4 in human urine. The methodology is based on a solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedure for clean-up and pre-concentration, followed by the monitoring of the UV filters by…
Sequential injection analysis for benzophenone-4 and phenylbenzimidazole sulphonic acid in sunscreen sprays by solid-phase extraction coupled with ul…
2002
Abstract A sequential injection UV method was developed to determine benzophenone-4 (BZ4) and phenylbenzimidazole sulphonic acid (PBS) simultaneously, these being the most commonly used UV-filters in aqueous formulations used as sunscreen sprays. The selective elution of both was performed by on-line solid-phase extraction, by retention on a SAX microcolumn and separation by varying the pH of elution. The sensitivity obtained was 0.042±0.001 ml μg −1 for PBS and 0.0159±0.0003 ml μg −1 for BZ4. The limit of detection was 1.6 μg ml −1 for PBS and 0.6 μg ml −1 for BZ4. The R.S.D. of the results was 1–6% for PBS and 1–12% for BZ4. The method was validated using commercial sunscreen formulations…
RAPID LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHIC DETERMINATION OF TETRACYCLINES IN ANIMAL FEEDS USING A SURFACTANT SOLUTION AS MOBILE PHASE
2002
ABSTRACT A chromatographic procedure was developed for the determination of oxytetracycline (OTC), tetracycline (TC), chlortetracycline (CTC), doxycycline (DC) and minocycline (MINO) in animal feeds. Clear analyte-rich extracts were obtained using a 1 : 1 acetonitrile/water mixture buffered at pH 3. The extracts were injected into a conventional unprotected C18 chromatographic column and eluted with a mobile phase of 0.05 M sodium dodecyl sulfate/5% 1-butanol/0.01 M oxalic acid at pH 3. Good resolution was achieved for the five compounds, whereas OTC and TC coeluted with an optimized aqueous-organic mobile phase of methanol/acetonitrile/0.01 M oxalic acid at pH 3. Mean recoveries from spike…
A solid-phase extraction and size-exclusion liquid chromatographic method for polyethylene glycol 25 p-aminobenzoic acid determination in urine: Vali…
2007
No previous publications about percutaneous absorption of polyethylene glycol 25 p-aminobenzoic acid (PEG-25 PABA) have been found in the literature and the expected levels to be found in human urine after sunscreens use are unknown. The method proposed here is suitable to determine PEG-25 PABA in the urine of sunscreens users in order to carry out studies on body accumulation/excretion. It is based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) with size-exclusion liquid chromatography determination. Solid-phase extraction allows the analyte to be retained and subsequently eluted for a clean-up, using a silica-based cartridge. The size-exclusion liquid chromatography of the eluted allows the rest of matr…
Determination of clenbuterol in urine by azo-dye precolumn derivatization and micellar liquid chromatography
1997
Clenbuterol has been determined in urine by solidphase extraction on a C18 cartridge, diazotization of the eluate with nitrite, coupling of the diazonium ion with 1-(naphthyl)ethylenediamine, and separation of the azo dye formed by HPLC with a C18 column and a micellar mobile phase containing 0.1 M sodium dodecyl sulphate, 12%n-butanol and 0.05 M citrate buffer, pH 3. Recoveries higher than 90% were obtained by mixing the samples with a 20% 0.2 M NaOH before extraction. Limits of detection of 51 and 6.7 ng L−1 were obtained with spectrophotometric and thermal lens spectrometric detection, respectively; respective repeatabilities were 3.1% (5 μg mL−1) and 5.6% (0.16 μg mL−1).
Determination of catecholamines in urine by micellar liquid chromatography with coulometric detection
1994
The determination of catecholamines by HPLC with a sodium dodecyl-sulphate (SDS), micellar mobile phase on a C18 column and with coulometric detection was studied. The eluate was conditioned at +0.25 and +0.00 V, and the current at −0.16V was recorded. A previously developed model which describes the chromatographic behaviour of solutes in HPLC with hybrid, micellar mobile phases was used to optimize the SDS and ethanol concentrations. A mobile phase of 0.15M SDS in a phosphate buffer of pH 3.4 and without ethanol is recommended. The limits of detection were 0.4–0.7 ng ml−1. The procedure was applied to the determination of unconjugated L-dopa, norepinephrine and dopamine in urine. Direct i…
High performance liquid chromatography—atomic fluorescence spectrometric determination of arsenic species in beer samples
2003
Abstract A method has been developed for the direct determination of As(III), dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) and As(V) in beers by hydride generation—atomic fluorescence spectrometry after separation of arsenic species by high performance liquid chromatography. Compounds were separated by anion-exchange chromatography with isocratic elution using KH 2 PO 4 /K 2 HPO 4 as mobile phase with elution times of 1.67, 2.08, 6.52 and 10.72 min for As(III), DMA, MMA and As(V), respectively. Parameters affecting the hydride generation of all arsenic species were studied and the best conditions were established as a reaction coil of 150 cm, for a sample injected volume of 100 …
Use of micellar mobile phases for the chromatographic determination of clorazepate, diazepam, and diltiazem in pharmaceuticals
2001
An ODS-2 column, a micellar mobile phase of high elution strength containing 0.1M sodium dodecyl sulfate and 3% (v/v) butanol, and ultraviolet detection at 230 nm are used for the determination of either of two benzodiazepines (clorazepate and diazepam) and a benzothiazepine (diltiazem) in pharmaceuticals. The procedure is shown to be competitive against conventional chromatography with methanol-water mobile phases, especially for diltiazem. The composition of the micellar mobile phase is selected using a predictive strategy based on an accurate retention model and assisted by computer simulation. Calibration graphs are linear at least in the 2.5 to 20 microg/mL, 4 to 20 microg/mL, and 5 to…
