Hexagonal-columnar mesophases of acylated azacrowns with enhanced stabilities
1992
A series of discotic liquid crystals based on completely acylated macrocyclic oligoamines (azacrowns) has been synthesized. Discotic mesophases could be very highly stabilized by making use of an increased steric hindrance, caused by supplemental lateral meta-substituents which were introduced into the cinnamic acids used as the acylation agents. Employing this method yields compounds exhibiting hexagonal mesophases over a very broad range of more than 300°. Even if very large macrocycles are used as the core of such disc-shaped compounds, enantiotropic mesophases are achieved. Themeta-substituents as well as the size of the azacrowns were varied and their influence on the mesomorphic behav…
NOseq: amplicon sequencing evaluation method for RNA m6A sites after chemical deamination
2020
Abstract Methods for the detection of m6A by RNA-Seq technologies are increasingly sought after. We here present NOseq, a method to detect m6A residues in defined amplicons by virtue of their resistance to chemical deamination, effected by nitrous acid. Partial deamination in NOseq affects all exocyclic amino groups present in nucleobases and thus also changes sequence information. The method uses a mapping algorithm specifically adapted to the sequence degeneration caused by deamination events. Thus, m6A sites with partial modification levels of ∼50% were detected in defined amplicons, and this threshold can be lowered to ∼10% by combination with m6A immunoprecipitation. NOseq faithfully d…

Interpretive search of optimal isocratic and gradient separations in micellar liquid chromatography in extended organic solvent domains
2020
Abstract Micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) is a reversed-phase mode with mobile phases containing an organic solvent and a micellised surfactant. Most procedures developed in MLC are implemented in the isocratic mode, since the general elution problem in chromatography is less troublesome. However, gradient elution may be still useful in MLC to analyse mixtures of compounds within a wide range of polarities, in shorter times. MLC using gradients is attractive to determine by direct injection moderate to low polar compounds in physiological samples. In these analyses, the use of initial micellar conditions (isocratic or gradient) with a fixed amount of surfactant above the critical micell…
Micellar Liquid Chromatography: A Worthy Technique for the Determination of β-Antagonists in Urine Samples
1998
Several beta-antagonists (acebutolol, atenolol, celiprolol, labetalol, metoprolol, nadolol, propranolol) were determined in urine samples with fluorometric detection after direct injection, in less than 15 min, with a micellar mobile phase of 0.1 M sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 15% propanol, and 1% triethylamine at pH 3. The limits of detection (38 criterion) were usually between 3 and 30 ng/mL. The addition of propanol and triethylamine and the reduction of the pH of the mobile phase improved the efficiency of the chromatographic peaks that was rather low in pure micellar eluents. The selection of the composition of the mobile phase was easily performed through the use of an interpretive p…
Performance of amines as silanol suppressors in reversed-phase liquid chromatography
2016
In reversed-phase liquid chromatography, cationic basic compounds yield broad and asymmetrical peaks, as a result of their ionic interaction with the anionic free silanol groups present in the silica-based stationary phases (commonly derivatised with C18 groups). A simple way to improve the peak shape is the addition to the hydro-organic mobile phase of a reagent (usually called additive) with cationic character. This associates with the stationary phase to prevent the access of analytes to the free silanol groups. Cationic additives may interact electrostatically with the anionic silanols. The hydrophobic region of the additive may also associate with the alkyl chains bound to the stationa…
The Use of 15N NMR for the Understanding of Nitrogen Physisorption.
1994
Abstract Nitrogen adsorption at liquid nitrogen temperature, 77K, is universally employed to determine pore dimensions. The nature of nitrogen physisorbed within the micropores of ZSM-5 zeolite was studied by in situ15N NMR as it depends on the partial pressure of the nitrogen and the temperature above and below 77K. An increase in the volume of adsorption of nitrogen at 77K occurs at a relative pressure of ~0.18 for this zeolite. The nature of the nitrogen was studied below and above this increase in nitrogen adsorption. We find that two states (phases) of nitrogen are evident. We conclude that two phases can be present but that a solid phase of nitrogen is not evident even as the temperat…
Risk assessment and monitoring programme of nitrates through vegetables in the Region of Valencia (Spain)
2017
This study was carried out to determine current levels of nitrate in vegetables marketed in the Region of Valencia (Spain) and to estimate the toxicological risk associated with their intake. A total of 533 samples of seven vegetable species were studied. Nitrate levels were derived from the Valencia Region monitoring programme carried out from 2009 to 2013 and food consumption levels were taken from the first Valencia Food Consumption Survey, conducted in 2010. The exposure was estimated using a probabilistic approach and two scenarios were assumed for left-censored data: the lower-bound scenario, in which unquantified results (below the limit of quantification) were set to zero and the up…

Determination of four parabens and bisphenols A, F and S in human breast milk using QuEChERS and liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry
2018
Abstract For the first time, a multiresidue, sensitive and high throughput method for determination of bisphenol A, F and S and 4 parabens (methyl paraben, ethyl paraben, propyl paraben and butyl paraben) in human breast milk was developed. The proposed method includes an extraction and clean-up procedure based on QuEChERS methodology followed by liquid chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole mass spectrometry determination. Negative atmospheric pressure chemical ionization in the selected reaction monitoring mode was used for mass detection. During the method validation the recoveries varied between 83 and 115% with a precision lower than 20% for all analytes using spiked levels from 0…
