Analysis of primary aliphatic short-chain monoamines by LC in water samples
2003
Abstract Several derivatization procedures with o-phthaldialdehyde-N-acetylcysteine (OPA-NAC) were compared for a rapid analysis of primary aliphatic short-chain monoamines in water samples by HPLC using a LiChorospher analytical separation column (100RP18 125 mm ×4 mm i.d., 5 μm). Both the solution and the solid-support assisted off-line derivatization on C18 SPE cartridges were inadequate options because of beginning degradation processes of the instable isoindol derivatives during their transfer to the analytical column. This problem was precluded with the on-column or solid-support assisted on-line derivatization. In the last mentioned procedure, the derivatization took place in a Hype…
Analysis of sterols by high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry combined with chemometrics
2006
A newly developed high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS) method has been successfully used to analyze plasma concentrations of various phytosterols (cholestanol and beta-sitosterol) and cholesterol metabolites (desmosterol and lathosterol). This was based on an unusual solvent combination of water/methanol vs. methanol/acetone/n-hexane applied on a Purospher Star RP-18e (125 x 2 mm, 3 microm) column, which proved excellent for the separation, identification and quantification of plasma sterols. Simple solid-phase extraction preparation of plasma samples was performed, followed by the developed fast and robust HPLC separation. Results on four groups of people were…
Determination of benzomercaptans in environmental complex samples by combining zeolitic imidazolate framework-8-based solid-phase extraction and high…
2020
[EN] In this work, the synthesis of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) crystals and their subsequent application as effective sorbents for extraction and preconcentration of several benzomercaptans from environmental complex samples is described. These materials were prepared by solvothermal approach varying the concentration of n-butylamine modulator to modify the surface of the metal-organic framework. The resulting materials were characterized by scanning and transmission electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The ZIF-8 material that gave the best features was selected as extractive phase and the influence of various parameters (s…
Determination of organophosphate flame retardants in soil and fish using ultrasound-assisted extraction, solid-phase clean-up, and liquid chromatogra…
2017
A solid–liquid extraction method in combination with high‐performance liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry was developed and optimized for extraction and analysis of organophosphorus flame retardants in soil and fish. Methanol was chosen as the optimum extraction solvent, not only in terms of extraction efficiency, but also for its broader analyte coverage. The subsequent clean‐up by solid‐phase extraction is required to eliminate matrix coextractives and reduce matrix effects. Recoveries of the optimized method were 50–121% for soil and 47–123% for biota, both with high precision (RSDs <12% in soil and <23% in biota). The method limits of detection ranged from 0.06 to 0.20 ng…
Evaluation of advanced silica packings for the separation of biopolymers by high-performance liquid chromatography
1989
Abstract The linear solvent strength model of Snyder was applied to describe fast protein separations on 2.1-μm non-porous, silica-based strong anion exchangers. It was demonstrated on short columns packed with these anion exchangers that (i) a substantially higher resolution of proteins and nucleotides was obtained at gradient times of less than 5 min than on porous anion exchangers; (ii) the low external surface area of the non-porous anion exchanger is not a critical parameter in analytical separations and (iii) μg-amounts of enzymes of high purity and full biological activity were isolated.
Computerized Interpretation of H P L C Chromatogramms by Means of Absorbance Ratio Method and Derivative Spectroscopy
1985
As in other chromatographic processes it is the aim of high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) to identify the components of a mixture, whereby there may be some information on the class of substances in question. The analytical procedure can shortly be desribed as follows. The mixture is injected in a mobile phase (solvent) and passes a column where the separation takes place. The separated components leave the column at different retention times. A following detection device generates a signal as a function of concentration (chromatographic peak). Usually the components are identified by relating retention times of external standards to the times of occurence of chromatographic peaks. …
Phosphatidylcholine-Gramicidin a Interaction Study in Non-Aqueous Solvent with a new HPLC-SEC Column
1985
Abstract A new HPLC-SEC column, Ultrastyragel 500 A, has been assayed in order to check the separation between gramicidin A and phosphatidylcholine in tetrahydrofuran. The good resolution of both compounds has allowed the quantitation of lipid-polypeptide interaction in terms of the binding ratio parameter, BR. A BR value of 3.6 moles of phosphatidylcholine per mole of gramicidin A has been obtained for a 0.1 % (w/v) phosphatidylcholine solution as eluent. The suitability of this support for studies on lipid-polypeptide interactions in non-aqueous solvents is demonstrated.
High-performance liquid chromatography of amino acids, peptides and proteins
1990
Abstract The thermodynamic constants, associated with the interaction of three proteins with triazine dye affinity sorbents, have been derived from bath and frontal analysis experiments. In cases where mass-transfer restrictions are very high, calculation of the thermodynamic constants directly from frontal analysis experiments could not be achieved. In such cases, a portion of the adsorbate was always present in the effluent, a situation which has its effect as the split peak phenomenon. With Fractogel-based triazine dye affinity sorbents none of the test proteins applied in frontal analysis were adsorbed. A similar behaviour was observed for a Cellufine sorbent during the adsorption of hu…
Biomarkers to disclose recent intake of alcohol: potential of 5-hydroxytryptophol glucuronide testing using new direct UPLC-tandem MS and ELISA metho…
2007
Aims: This study compared two new methods for direct determination of 5-hydroxytryptophol glucuronide (GTOL) in urine, a biomarker for detection of recent alcohol consumption. Methods: Urine samples were collected from ten alcoholic patients during recovery from intoxication. A direct injection ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for measurement of the urinary GTOL to 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) ratio, and an ELISA assay for direct measurement of GTOL, were used. Comparison was made with the urinary ethanol and ethyl glucuronide (EtG) concentrations. Results: The breath ethanol concentration on admission ranged between 1.0-3.1 g/l. Th…
Determination of dithiocarbamates and metabolites in plants by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry
2004
Abstract A quantitative matrix solid-phase dispersion and liquid chromatography–atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (LC–APCI–MS) method is outlined for the simultaneous analysis of dithiocarbamates (DTCs) and their degradation products in plants. Compounds analyzed are dazomet, disulfiram, thiram and the metabolites ethylenthiourea and propylenthiourea. The performance of two different sample preparation protocols, the proposed one and other based on solid-phase extraction, as well as, of both atmospheric pressure ionization sources, APCI and electrospray, were compared. The effect of several parameters on the extraction, separation and detection was studied. Dithioca…
