Estimation of the Compatibility Between Poly(Methylmethacrylate) and Poly(Styrene Co Vinyl Phenol) Blends from Dilute Solution Measurements
2006
Abstract The compatibility of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) with poly(styrene‐co‐vinyl phenol) (PS‐VPh) with two different contents of vinyl phenol, 5.8 and 7.2%, in dilute tetrahydrofuran solutions has been investigated by size exclusion chromatography and fluorescence spectroscopy at 25°C. The chromatographic technique permits the evaluation of the preferential solvation at different PMMA/PS‐VPh ratios. Changes in the fluorescence properties of PS‐VPh, caused by its association with PMMA, were used to obtain the fraction of copolymer bound to PMMA at diverse PMMA compositions. Both techniques agree quantitatively in every system, indicating that the association increases when the PMMA …
Microporous hypercrosslinked polystyrene Styrosorb as a restricted access packing in sample clean-up for high performance liquid chromatography. Part…
1993
Styrosorb is a beaded microporous polystyrene with particle sizes between 2 and 4 μm. In spite of hypercrosslinkage the material was seen to swell in organic solvents. The native material is functionalized with Tris-groups at the outer surface of the particles. The average pore diameter was determined as 1.45±0.3 nm from size exclusion data using polystyrene and polyethylene standards in THF. The reversed phase behavior of the restricted access phase Styrosorb was investigated by injection of two test mixtures. Mixture I contained five aromatic amines, mixture II consisted of AmperozideR and four related compounds. The optimum range of mobile phase composition was assessed so that analytes …
Comparative study of Zorbax Bio Series GF 250 and GF 450 and TSK-Gel 3000 SW and SWXL columns in size-exclusion chromatography of proteins.
1988
Abstract A reduction of the mean particle diameter of silica-based packings in the size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) of proteins to about 5 μm generates the expected increase in column plate number over the traditional 10 μm SEC columns, as demonstrated for the Zorbax Bio Series GF 250 and GF 450 and TSK-Gel 3000 SWXL columns. The slightly lower column efficiency of the TSK-Gel 3000 SWXL compared with the GF 250 column is compensated by the fact that the phase ratio of the 3000 SWXL column is higher by a factor of two. Hence both columns show nearly the same peak capacity of about 20–30. When the ionic strength of the eluent was changed by varying the salt concentration, the elution volum…
An automatic multidimensional chromatography system for purification of human uterine progesterone receptor and induction of polyclonal antibodies.
1986
Abstract This paper reports on the synthesis of Org2058-bonded microparticulate silicas and their use in affinity chromatography as the first step for the purification of human progesterone receptor. The development of microprocessor-controlled instruments allows all the various steps to be performed automatically. The various steps used for the purification of human progesterone receptor were carried out with the FPLC system: (1) affinity chromatography, (2) desalting of eluate on Sephadex G-25, (3) anion-exchange chromatography using a Mono Q column. With this procedure the receptor was purified approx. 10,000-fold within 24 h. The yield of receptor was generally 85–95%. Investigations wi…
Sulphonic acid strong cation-exchange restricted access columns in sample cleanup for profiling of endogeneous peptides in multidimensional liquid ch…
2006
Abstract In this work, the pore structural parameters and size exclusion properties of LiChrospher strong cation-exchange and reverse phase restricted access materials (RAM) are analysed. The molecular weight size exclusion limit for polystyrenes was found to be about 17.7 kDa, while for standard proteins, the molecular weight size exclusion limit was higher, at approximately 25 kDa. The average pore diameter on a volume basis calculated from the pore network model changes from 8.5 nm (native LiChrospher) to 8.6 nm (diol derivative) to 8.2 nm (sulphonic acid derivative) to 6.9 nm ( n -octadecyl derivative). Additional characterisations were performed on restricted access materials with nitr…
Preferential solvation of a dicyanate ester monomer and poly(sulfone) in different organic solvents by size-exclusion chromatography.
2002
Preferential solvation parameters A in the ternary systems solvent (1) -monomer (2) -polymer (3) were determined as a tool to measure the compatibility between the cyanate ester monomer Arocy B10 and poly(sulfone), PSF, in the presence of three organic solvents: tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide and dicloromethane. The A parameter was measured by size-exclusion chromatography at different monomer-to-polymer ratios. The quantitative evaluation was rigorously made at polymer-diluted conditions. PSF was found to be preferentially solvated by the monomer. Concerning the solvent used, systems containing tetrahydrofuran showed the strongest solvation, the lowest A values being those obtained in …
Packings and stationary phases for biopolymer separations by HPLC
1987
Packings and stationary phases applied to high resolution separations of proteins, enzymes, and nucleic acids must satisfy a series of distinct criteria that are different from those usually required by HPLC of low molecular weight non-biologically active analytes. These requirements have been met through substantial improvements in classical gel media together with novel developments in silica supports, and have led to a family of products with tailor-made and reproducible properties. Supports consisting of cross-linked organic gels, and inorganic materials (mostly silicas) are now available with graduated particle sizes, pore sizes, porosities and surface areas as well as non-porous beads…
Assessment and optimization of system parameters in size exclusion separation of proteins on diol-modified silica columns
1981
Abstract On diol-modified silica columns the retention of proteins is governed by a size exclusion effect, but superimposed on this are some secondary effects, i.e. , ionic and diol-ligand interactions which can be controlled and adjusted reproducibly by varying the eluent composition. The eluent composition also affects the column efficiency and peak shape. Both dependences can be employed to obtain a better resolution of proteins than can be expected from size exclusion alone.
Enrichment of proteinaceous materials on a strong cation-exchange diol silica restricted access material: protein–protein displacement and interactio…
2004
A study of size exclusion and enrichment of proteins employing strong cation-exchange diol silica restricted access material (SCX-RAM) under saturation conditions is presented. Experiments were carried out with bacitracin, protamine, ribonuclease, lysozyme and bovine serum albumin as individual proteinaceous analytes as well as comprehensive binary mixtures and with human urine samples. Protein size dependent capacity features of the SCX-RAM column was observed. Bacitracin demonstrated the highest capacity followed by protamine while adsorption capacities of both ribonuclease and lysozyme were found smaller by a factor of 10. Applying binary protein samples occurring displacement effects we…
Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH), I: Reassociation from Immucothel® followed by separation of KLH1 and KLH2
1997
Abstract Studies of keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) normally require purification of functional complexes directly from living animals. An alternative procedure is described wherein a commercial preparation of KLH which is fully dissociated into its subunits (Immucothel®, biosyn Arzneimittel GmbH) is reassociated in the presence of a high concentration of calcium and magnesium. The reassociation products, when observed by electron microscopy, consist of didecamers, multidecamers and flexible tubules of varying length. The two forms of KLH described previously and designated KLH1 and KLH2, are present in the reassocated mixture as homo-oligomers/polymers and can be separated by selective dis…
