Determination of aliphatic amines in water by liquid chromatography using solid-phase extraction cartridges for preconcentration and derivatization
2001
Bond Elut C18 solid-phase extraction cartridges were used for preconcentration and pre-column derivatization with 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride (DNB) of aliphatic amines in water. Conditions for analyte preconcentration and derivatization (including the volume of sample, concentration of reagent, time of reaction and pH) were investigated, using ethylamine, isopropylamine and dimethylamine as model compounds. On the basis of these studies, a rapid and sensitive method for the determination of aliphatic amines in water is presented. The analytes are retained and purified on the cartridges and then derivatized and desorbed by drawing in succession the DNB solution and acetonitrile. The collecte…
H-Point Curve Isolation Method for Coupled Liquid Chromatography and UV−Visible Spectrophotometry
2000
The H-point curve isolation method (HPCIM) for the detection of unknown interferences in chromatography is proposed. The method allows one to estimate the UV-vis spectra of interfering species in a sample as well as to test the purity of the chromatographic peaks. Besides the detection of the unknown interferences in a sample, this method allows one to calculate the concentration of an analyte in the presence of unknown compounds. To illustrate the reliability of the proposed method, samples of diuretics and amphetamines have been analyzed by normal- and reversed-phase high-performance chromatography.
Control of propranolol intake by direct chromatographic detection of alpha-naphthoxylactic acid in urine.
2002
A rapid chromatographic procedure with a C18 column, a mobile phase of 0.15 M sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-10% (v/v) 1-propanol at pH 3 (0.01 M phosphate buffer), and fluorimetric detection, is reported for the control of propranolol (PPL) intake in urine samples, which are injected directly without any other treatment than filtration. The peak of PPL was only observed in samples taken a few hours after ingestion of the drug due to its extensive conjugation and metabolisation. The detection of several unconjugated PPL metabolites was therefore considered: desisopropylpropranolol (DIP), propranolol glycol (PPG), alpha-naphthoxylactic acid (NLT) and alpha-naphthoxyacetic acid (NAC). NLT showe…
Application of solid-phase microextraction combined with derivatization to the enantiomeric determination of amphetamines.
2005
Abstract The utility of combining chiral derivatization and solid-phase microextraction (SPME) for the enantiomeric analysis of primary amphetamines by liquid chromatography has been investigated. Different derivatization/extraction strategies have been evaluated and compared using the chiral reagent o -phthaldialdehyde (OPA)– N -acetyl- l -cysteine (NAC) and fibres with a Carbowax-templated resin coating. Amphetamine, norephedrine and 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA) were used as model compounds. On the basis of the results obtained, a new method is presented based on the derivatization of the analytes in solution followed by SPME of the OPA–NAC derivatives formed. The proposed conditio…
Micellar liquid chromatography determination of rivaroxaban in plasma and urine. Validation and theoretical aspects.
2019
A Micellar Chromatographic method to determine rivaroxaban in plasma and urine has been developed. The samples were dissolved in the mobile phase (SDS 0.05 M – 1-propanol 12.5%, phosphate buffered at pH 7) and 20 μL directly injected, avoiding the extraction and purification steps. Using a C18 column and running under isocratic mode at 1 mL/min, analyte was eluted without interference from the matrix in <6.0 min. The detection absorbance wavelength was set to 250 nm. The procedure was validated by Food and Drug Administration guidelines in terms of: system suitability, calibration range (0.05–5 mg/L), linearity, sensitivity, robustness, carry-over effect, specificity, accuracy (−11.1 to 4.2…
Development of a Rapid Method for the Determination of Phenolic Antioxidants in Dark Chocolate Using Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography Coupled …
2017
Development of a new comprehensive method based on one-step liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) combined with ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-Orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Orbitrap-HRMS) for the determination of eight phenolic compounds in dark chocolate is demonstrated. The study focuses on the optimization of sample preparation, chromatographic separation and Orbitrap-HRMS detection parameters to adjust selectivity and sensitivity of the method. The LLE mixture of formic acid-water-acetonitrile (2:58:40, v/v) and hexane at the component ratio of 1:1 (v/v) was applied for sample preparation. The inter-day and intra-day precision expressed from the relative stand…
Rapid determination of pharmaceuticals in wastewater by direct infusion HRMS using target and suspect screening analysis
2021
Abstract A wide-scope screening of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and their transformation products (TPs) in wastewater can yield valuable insights and pinpoint emerging contaminants that have not been previously reported. Such information is relevant to investigate their occurrence and fate in various environmental compartments. In this study, we explored the applicability of direct infusion high resolution mass spectrometry (DI-HRMS) for comprehensive and rapid detection of APIs and their TPs in wastewater samples. The method was developed using a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS) system and incorporated both wide-scope suspect screening and…
Generalised H-point standard addition method for the isolation of the analyte signal from the sample signal when coelution of unknown compounds occur…
1999
The generalised H-point standard addition method (GHPSAM) is proposed for isolating the analytical signal of an analyte from the signal of an unknown sample. Samples containing two and three coeluting compounds have been analysed. The accuracy of the predictions depends on the shape of the analyte and interferent spectra but not on the degree of chromatographic overlap. This methodology involves the location of linear intervals for the unknown interference spectrum from the spectrum of the sample. Once the linear interval has been found the selection of three wavelengths within the interval will allow the cancellation of the signal of the unknown interferent. The method has been applied to …
One-Pot Analysis: a New Integrated Methodology for Determination of TAG and FA Determination through LC/MS and in-silico Saponification
2017
Vegetable oils differ significantly for their lipid profile and are mainly constituted by triacylglycerols (TAGs). These are esters formed bonding glycerol to three fatty acids (FAs). To the best of our knowledge, FA and TAG profiles in oils and fats are obtained using at least two different experimental techniques. In particular, FA determination requires elaborated procedures for sample preparation and analyte derivatization. In this work, we propose a one-pot analysis able to determine both TAG and FA contents of edible oils, using experimental data obtained from a simple liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry determination of TAGs. This experimental procedure is followed by an in silic…
Application of ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography linear ion-trap orbitrap to qualitative and quantitative assessment of pesticide residues
2014
Abstract The analysis of pesticides residues using a last generation high resolution and high mass accuracy hybrid linear ion trap-Orbitrap mass spectrometer (LTQ-Orbitrap-MS) was explored. Pesticides were extracted from fruits, fish, bees and sediments by QuEChERS and from water by solid-phase with Oasis HLB cartridges. Ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC)–LTQ-Orbitrap mass spectrometer acquired full scan MS data for quantification, and data dependent (dd) MS 2 and MS 3 product ion spectra for identification and/or confirmation. The regression coefficients ( r 2 ) for the calibration curves (two order of magnitude up to the lowest calibration level) in the study were ≥0.99. Th…
