Separation Efficiency of Two SEC Packings: Comparison of Chromatographic, Thermodynamic, and Fractal Parameters
2004
Abstract The size‐exclusion chromatographic (SEC), thermodynamic, and fractal behavior of two organic packings, named TSK‐Gel HHR and TSK‐Gel HXL, has been compared in order to assess their separation efficiency. The different experimental elution trends of five solvent/polymer systems have been evidenced through the universal calibration curves, and the existence of secondary mechanisms (such as adsorption) has been quantified by the chromatographic partition coefficient K p. From a thermodynamic point of view, the swelling and crosslinking degrees have been evaluated and compared in the two gels assayed. Moreover, the values of some fractal parameters (fractal dimension of the surface and…
Evaluation of advanced silica packings for the separation of biopolymers by high-performance liquid chromatography
1987
Following previous studies of the use of non-porous monodisperse 1.5-microns n-octyl- and n-octadecyl-bonded silicas in gradient elution of proteins, this work was aimed at elucidating further the properties of this novel column material for peptide and protein separations in comparison with wide-pore silicas. First, it is demonstrated that with short columns (e.g., 35 X 8 mm I.D.) packed with these non-porous reversed-phase materials, mixtures of small peptides and mixtures of proteins can be very efficiently resolved. When the chain length of the bonded ligand was varied, the retention of a test set of proteins in gradient elution followed the ligand sequence C18 greater than C8 approxima…
Near-critical carbon dioxide extraction and liquid chromatography determination of UV filters in solid cosmetic samples: A green analytical procedure
2005
Near-critical carbon dioxide extraction of four UV filters used as sunscreens in lipsticks and makeup formulations is reported. Extraction parameters were optimized. Efficient recoveries were obtained after 15 min of dynamic extraction with a 80:20 CO2/ethanol mixture at 300 atm and 54 degrees C, using a 1.8 mL/min flow rate. Extracts were collected in ethanol, and appropriately diluted with ethanol and 1% acetic acid to obtain a 70:30 v/v ethanol/1% acetic acid solution. The four UV filters were determined by LC with gradient elution using ethanol/1% acetic acid as mobile phase. The accuracy of the analytical procedure was estimated by comparing the results with those obtained by methods b…
Organochlorine residue analysis of commercial milks by capillary gas chromatography
1991
The determination of organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls in milks requires the use of efficient extraction methods. A rapid procedure has been developed, based on extraction of organochlorine residues from milk on to octadecylsilica solid phase extraction cartridges and elution with hexane. The addition of different organic solvents to the milk before solid phase extraction has been studied. The use of methanol to disrupt the fat globules enables almost complete recovery of the residues with minimum extraction of fatty substances. Recovery experiments were performed for eighteen compounds present at ppb levels in whole, two per cent, and skimmed milks. The average recove…
Liquid chromatography and characterization of ether-functionalized imidazolium ionic liquids on mixed-mode reversed-phase/cation exchange stationary …
2010
Abstract A new series [CnOmmim]Cl of imidazolium cation-based ionic liquids (ILs), with an ether functional group on the alkyl side-chain, has been prepared. The possibility of analyzing the ionic liquids by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was investigated on mixed-mode reversed/cation exchange stationary phase with the aqueous-acetonitrile mobile phase. Elution parameters, such as retention factor, selectivity and column efficiency, were studied as functions of mobile phase composition and pH. The ILs were characterized by elemental analysis, and infrared, UV and 1H, 13C NMR spectroscopy.
Univariate method for background correction in liquid chromatography–Fourier transform infrared spectrometry
2007
An univariate method is proposed for background correction in on-line gradient liquid chromatography-Fourier transform infrared (LC-FTIR) spectrometry using acetonitrile:water as mobile phase components. The method is based on the calculation of the ratio of absorbances (AR) at two characteristic wavenumbers for each spectrum. This parameter is subsequently used to locate the most appropriated eluent spectrum within a reference spectra matrix (RSM) to be subtracted from each spectrum included in the sample chromatogram. To correct minor changes in eluent spectra intensity during the elution of analytes, a correction factor (Kf), defined as the ratio of the absorbance of the sample and the s…
Glass-capillary gas chromatography of chlorobenzenes on SE-30 and Carbowax 20M columns. Simultaneous determination of chlorobenzenes and chlorophenols
1983
Gas chromatography of benzene and all chlorobenzenes has been studied on SE-30 and Carbowax 20M glasscapillary columns under various operating conditions. The benzene isomers are eluted on both columns according to their boiling points. Separation of all components in a mixture is achieved on Carbowax 20M, whereas on SE-30 the peaks of closely related isomers overlapped. Also one partial overlapping is observed on a non-polar phase. The relative retention times for compounds are given and the retention order is discussed. The retention behaviour of chlorobenzenes and chlorophenols is compared. By using an SE-30 quartz-capillary column a mixture of 33 individual components gives 29 resolved …
Extraction of clenbuterol from calf urine using a molecularly imprinted polymer followed by quantitation by high-performance liquid chromatography wi…
2002
A method for the extraction of clenbuterol from calf urine samples using a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) has been developed. The aim was that the final extracts from the MIP should allow quantitation of clenbuterol down to 0.5 ng/mL urine using HPLC with UV detection. The MIP was produced using brombuterol as a template and the selectivity of the MIP, for clenbuterol, was tested against a non-imprinted polymer (produced without template) and was found to be high. After loading of 5 mL diluted centrifuged urine, selective binding was established in acetonitrile-acetic acid (98:2). For further elution of interferences, 0.5 M ammonium acetate buffer pH 5 and 70% acetonitrile in water was…
Liquid chromatographic procedure for the evaluation of β-blockers in pharmaceuticals using hybrid micellar mobile phases
1997
Abstract A reversed-phase chromatographic procedure with a micellar eluent is proposed for the determination of several β-blockers (acebutolol, atenolol, carteolol, celiprolol, labetalol, metoprolol, nadolol, oxprenolol, propranolol, and timolol) in pharmaceutical formulations (tablets, capsules, and ophthalamic solutions). A study is shown on the chromatographic behaviour of these drugs with mobile phases containing sodium dodecyl sulphate (0.075–0.15 M ) and propanol (0–15%, v/v), at different pH values (3–7). The excellent correlation between log of the octanol-water partition coefficient and log of capacity factor, for the ten drugs in mobile phases of SDS and propanol, suggested that t…
Solvent selection in liquid chromatography
2017
Many solvents and additives are used to prepare mobile phases in liquid chromatography (LC). Also, mixtures of solvents at different ratios are used to modify the mobile-phase properties. This can make solvent selection for method development a puzzling task, unless suitable guidelines are followed. This chapter summarizes the most common strategies used by skilled chromatographers in reversed-phase, normal-phase, and hydrophilic interaction LC. These are based on considerations about the global polarity of solutes, stationary phase, and mobile phase, which determine the elution strength, and on the particular profile of the contributions of intermolecular interactions to the global polarit…
