Reversed phase liquid chromatography for the enantioseparation of local anaesthetics in polysaccharide-based stationary phases. Application to biodeg…

2020

[EN] A comprehensive study on the chiral separation of bupivacaine, mepivacaine, prilocaine and propanocaine with eight commercial polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases (CSPs) in reversed phase conditions compatible with MS detection is performed. Methanol and acetonitrile are used as organic modifiers. Retention and resolution values obtained for each compound in the different CSPs and mobile phases are compared. The polysaccharide-based CSPs tested present different enantioselectivity towards the analytes. From the results, the experimental conditions for determining the enantiomers of bupivacaine, mepivacaine, prilocaine and propanocaine in saline aqueous samples using MS detecti…

Exponential growth phase cells of the osmotolerant yeast Debaryomyces hansenii are extremely resistant to dehydration stress

2001

Abstract The osmotolerant yeast Debaryomyces hansenii is highly resistant to dehydration stress and this tolerance was more pronounced for cells taken from the exponential growth phase than from the stationary phase. Growth of D. hansenii in medium containing 10% (w v −1 ) NaCl, resulted in an additional increase in cellular resistance to dehydration, which was most marked for stationary phase cells. It is expected that further investigations of the mechanisms behind this exceptional dehydrational tolerance will reveal new approaches for improvement of the quality of dry yeast.

Application of molecularly imprinted polymers in analytical chiral separations and analysis

2018

Over the last two decades the process of development and application of a new types of molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) sorbents in the field of analytical chemistry have been widely described in the literature. One of the new trends in analytical chemistry practice is the use of new types of MIP sorbents as specific sorption materials constituting the stationary phase in advanced separation techniques. The following review paper contains comprehensive information about the application of a specific and well defined MIP sorbents (with the data base in the paper about the reagents used in MIP preparation process) as stationary phases in separation techniques including high performance liqui…

Effect of L-Histidine on the Survival of a T-Strain of Mycoplasma

1975

The addition of L-histidine to the growth medium prolongs the stationary phase and the survival of a T-strain of mycoplasma. Results of an experiment performed with 14 C-labeled urea demonstrate that the action of L-histidine is based on the retardation of the rise of pH.

Stationary phase modulation in liquid chromatography through the serial coupling of columns: A review

2016

Liquid chromatography with single columns often does not succeed in the analysis of complex samples, in terms of resolution and analysis time. A relatively simple solution to enhance chromatographic resolution is the modulation of the stationary phase through the serial coupling of columns. This can be implemented with any type of column using compatible elution conditions and conventional instruments. This review describes the key features of column coupling and published procedures, where two or more columns were coupled in series to solve separation problems. In all reports, the authors could not resolve their samples with single columns, whereas significant enhancement in chromatographi…

Chromatographic Efficiency in Micellar Liquid Chromatography: Should it Be Still a Topic of Concern?

2013

Micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) was first proposed as an attractive alternative to avoid the use of organic solvents. It was soon apparent that pure micellar solutions yield poor efficiencies. This problem was remediated by the addition of a small amount of an organic solvent. However, the general opinion of the poor peak shape has prevailed as a handicap for MLC, in spite of the fact that the hybrid mode often offers similar or even improved efficiencies (for basic compounds) relative to that attained in the hydro-organic mode. Only the efficiencies for apolar non-ionizable compounds are still clearly inferior. This work describes the type of interactions and polarity changes with org…

Gas-liquid chromatographic analyses

1984

A mixture of all nine chlorinated 4-hydroxybenzaldehydes and the parent homologue was separated on a non-polar SE-30 capillary column using various isothermal and temperature-programmed operating conditions. The relative retention data for the compounds are given and the retention indices together with the retention index increments for each position of chlorine substitution are examined. The retention order 3-Cl<parent<2,5-di-Cl<2,3-di-Cl<3,5-di-Cl<2-Cl<2,3,5-tri-Cl<2,3,6-tri-Cl<2,6-di-Cl<tetra-Cl isomer obtained indicates that the effect of the position of substitution on the retention behaviour is greater than that of the number of chlorine atoms. The retention is maximal with 2-Cl and 2…

Study of Chromatographic Properties of Catecholamines and their Acidic Metabolites Using Novel Molecularly Imprinted Polymers as Stationary Phases

2021

Quantitative analysis of catecholamines and their acidic metabolites can provide vital information for diagnosis and treatment of various diseases (such as adrenal tumors). However, complicated purification protocols are usually required to isolate the analytes. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have attracted considerable attention as a method of selectively separating desired compounds from their matrix. Therefore, we propose a synthetic procedure for new molecularly imprinted sorbents that possess selective binding sites for both catecholamines and their acidic metabolites. The new polymer utilizes non-covalent and semi-covalent imprinting methods. The binding properties of MIPs were…

Quantitative retention–structure and retention–activity relationships of barbiturates by micellar liquid chromatography

1998

Abstract Studies on the structural requirements of chromatographic surfaces to emulate in vitro the partitioning process in biomembranes are of great interest. The use of micellar mobile phases in RPLC modifies the hydrophobicity of the stationary phase and provides hydrophobic and electrostatic sites of interaction as a consequence of the adsorption of surfactant monomers to the chromatographic surface. Modified stationary phases in MLC could be structurally similar to biomembranes, but thorough studies are necessary to confirm this. In this paper we focus our attention on barbiturates. The influence of the nature and concentration of the surfactant (Brij 35, SDS and CTAB) and the mobile p…
