Comparison of liquid chromatography using triple quadrupole and quadrupole ion trap mass analyzers to determine pesticide residues in oranges.

2005

Liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole/mass spectrometry (LC-TQ/MS) and liquid chromatography-quadrupole ion trap/mass spectrometry (LC-QIT/MS) for determining bupirimate, hexaflumuron, tebufenpyrad, buprofezin, pyriproxyfen, and fluvalinate in fruits have been compared. The differences in the mass spectra obtained by triple and ion trap quadrupoles are discussed, showing how both of them provide interesting features. The evaluation of the two instruments was carried out by ethyl acetate extraction of oranges spiked with the studied pesticides at LOQ and 10 times the LOQ. Results obtained by LC-TQ/MS correlated well with those obtained by LC-QIT/MS. Recoveries were 70-94% by LC-TQ/MS and 7…

Anwendungsmöglichkeiten der HPLC bei der Trennung, Isolierung, Identifizierung und quantitativen Bestimmung von Substanzen aus komplexen Stoffgemisch…

1982

Es wird die Anwendung der Hochdruckflussigchromatographie (HPLC) in Bezug auf die Identifizierung und quantitative Bestimmung von Carbonsauren in Aluminatlaugen aus dem Bayerprozes beschrieben. Die Vorgehensweise besteht in folgenden Teilschritten: Optimierung von HPLC Phasensystemen zur Trennung von synthetischen Gemischen von Carbonsauren, Aufarbeitung der Aluminatlauge, semi-praparative Isolierung von Substanzen, Identifizierung auf flussigchromatographischem Wege und durch Massenspektrometrie, quantitative Bestimmung durch Peakhohenauswertung mit Hilfe externer Standards.

Quantitative retention—structure and retention—activity relationship studies of ionic and non-ionic catecholamines by micellar liquid chromatography

1997

When ionic surfactants are used as mobile phases in micellar liquid chromatography, MLC, the retention of compounds is governed by hydrophobic and electrostatic forces. In the absence of electrostatic effects, the hydrophobicity of a compound is the predominant factor affecting its retention and its interaction with micelles. Because both interactions should be considered for ionic compounds, a novel retention model is proposed which includes the hydrophobicity of a compound and the molar fraction of its charged form. High correlations between the logarithm of the capacity factors and structural parameters were obtained for ionic compounds with different degrees of ionization. The effect of…

Analysis of pharmaceutical preparations containing local anesthetics by micellar liquid chromatography and spectrophotometric detection

1999

An HPLC procedure for the determination of six local anesthetics, bupivacaine, lidocaine, mepivacaine, procaine, propanocaine and tetracaine, in pharmaceutical silane ODS-2 C18 analytical column and spectrophotometric detection at 230 nm were used. The chromatographic tographic behaviour of local anesthetics with different micellar eluents of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) is described. Selection of the adequate composition of the micellar mobile phase (SDS and 1-propanol concentrations) for the analysis of pharmaceuticals was studied. Adequate retention was achieved with an eluent containing 0.15 M SDS +10% 1-propanol at pH 3. Application of the proposed method to the analysis of eight phar…

Packing technology, column bed structure and chromatographic performance of 1-2-μm non-porous silicas in high-performance liquid chromatography

1989

This work is aimed at further elucidating the aggregation behaviour of micron- and submicron-size non-porous silicas and the column performance of 1–2-μm C18 silicas in reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography of low-molecular weight compounds. It is demonstrated that highly ordered, dense, porous aggregates of such silica beads were obtained by gravity settling and centrifugation. The slurry techniques applied at constant flow-rate and a pressure up to 50 MPa provided less-ordered aggregates, but generated an acceptable performance of columns when 1–2-μm C18 silica beads were employed. To operate columns of 53 mm × 4.6 mm I.D., the maximum flow-rate needs to be ca. 2.5 ml/min …

High-performance liquid chromatographic determination of furfural compounds in infant formulas

2002

Furfural contents in adapted and follow-up infant formulas were measured by RP-HPLC. The evolution of furfural compound contents during storage (a year at 20 and 37 °C) was studied. 2-Furylmethylketone and 5-methyl-2-furaldehyde were not detectable in analysed samples. The differences in the furfural compounds at point zero between both infant formulas has to be ascribed to the differences in protein and iron contents. An increase in free 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfuraldehyde (HMF), 2-furaldehyde (F) and HMF+F contents was observed in all samples, although the differences were not statistically significant. The storage temperature affected the total HMF content and the storage time affected the …

Emerging approaches to estimate retention factors in high performance liquid chromatography.

2004

The retention factor is one of the most universally used parameters in chromatography. The errors associated with the conventional ways to determine the retention factor of compounds in liquid chromatography are studied and compared with those corresponding to new approaches. The later avoid the use of extra-column time and hold-up time values, which have proven to be tedious and ambiguous. Simulations and real data, used to examine the accuracy of four different approaches (two classic and two new), suggest that the new approaches could be considered more satisfactory than the classic ones.

Micellar versus hydro-organic reversed-phase liquid chromatography: a solvation parameter-based perspective.

2007

The performance of the solvation parameter model is examined for micellar liquid chromatography. The results are compared with those offered with hydro-organic eluents, intending to reveal the properties that influence the retention and distinguish the particular behaviour of micellar systems. The retention data of several series of non-ionisable and ionisable compounds (mainly steroids, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, phenols, sulfonamides, beta-blockers, phenethylamines, antihistamines, and diuretics) were used as probe compounds. The micellar mobile phases contained an anionic (sodium dodecyl sulphate), non-ionic (Brij-35), or cationic (cetyltrimethylamonium bromide) surfactant, with or witho…

Retention mechanisms in micellar liquid chromatography.

2008

Micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) is a reversed-phase liquid chromatographic (RPLC) mode with mobile phases containing a surfactant (ionic or non-ionic) above its critical micellar concentration (CMC). In these conditions, the stationary phase is modified with an approximately constant amount of surfactant monomers, and the solubilising capability of the mobile phase is altered by the presence of micelles, giving rise to diverse interactions (hydrophobic, ionic and steric) with major implications in retention and selectivity. From its beginnings in 1980, the technique has evolved up to becoming a real alternative in some instances (and a complement in others) to classical RPLC with hydro…
