A useful procedure for detection of polyamines in biological samples as a potential diagnostic tool in cancer diagnosis
2017
Abstract Background Polyamines present in human body are frequently considered as markers of occurrence of cancer. Therefore, the availability of simple and efficient method for determination of their level in body liquids and tissues is of some interest. Methods Supported liquid membrane technology coupled with HPLC seems to be an appropriate technique to follow the level of polyamines in human blood and urine. Thus, the membranes of two different geometries: flat sheet and hollow fiber were studied as a mean for separation and enrichment of studied polyamines from urine and tissue samples in order to prepare samples to be analyzed by HPLC. Conclusions Developed extraction systems offer an…
Transport of dipeptides and phosphono dipeptides through an immobilized liquid membrane. Stereoselectivity of the process
1993
Abstract Dipeptide and phosphono dipeptide hydrochlorides permeated well through a 1-decanol membrane supported in a porous polyethylene hollow fiber matrix. This transfer is easily accomplished either by passive or by carrier-facilitated (with Kryptofixes 222 or 5 present in the membrane phase) transport. The transport is stereoselective with l-l dipeptides being transported faster than their l-d isomers.
Extraction of glyphosate by a supported liquid membrane technique.
2000
The possible application of the supported liquid membrane (SLM) technique for the extraction of glyphosate is presented. For the extraction of this compound the SLM system has been applied with utilisation of Aliquat 336 as a cationic carrier incorporated into the membrane phase. The extraction efficiency of glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine] is dependent on the donor phase pH, carrier concentration in the organic phase and NaCl concentration in the acceptor phase. The optimal extraction conditions are: donor phase pH>11, acceptor phase of 2 M NaCl solution and the organic phase composed of 20% (w/w) Aliquot 336 solution in di-hexyl ether. Counter-coupled transport of chloride anions f…
Factors influencing the transport of tryptophan hydrochloride through supported liquid membranes containing macrocyclic carriers
1997
Commercially available PTFE membranes were used as a support for liquid membranes in amino acid transport. Using tryptophan as a model amino acid, the influence of the type of organic liquid, kind of macrocyclic carrier and counter-ion on transport efficiency was examined. These studies show the strong influence of the kind of the counter-ion co-transported with amino acid cation, and the type of macrocyclic carrier used on the transport efficiency. The transport efficiency depends also on the pH of the source phase and on the nature of the organic liquid used as a membrane solvent. Liquid membranes supported on commercial porous-PTFE-membranes with hydrophobic solvents are stable for more …
Supported liquid membrane separation of amine and amino acid derivatives with chiral esters of phosphoric acids as carriers
2003
Studies on the possible use of phosphate and phosphonate esters bearing chiral menthol or nopol moieties as carriers for the transport of amines, amino acids, and amino acid esters through supported liquid membranes (SLM) are presented. Additionally, the enantioselectivity of the SLM transport of alkyl esters of aromatic amino acids and a non‐protein amino acid was also evaluated. It could be concluded that the extent of transport strongly depends on the hydrophobicity of the amino compound. Moreover, the carrier structure also influences the transport of those compounds through SLM: chiral phosphate and phosphonate esters appear to be poor or moderate carriers for enantioselective SLM tran…
Enantioselective transport of amino acid through supported chiral liquid membranes
1993
Abstract Two chiral alcohols, nopol and (2S)-(−)-methyl-1-butanol, immobilized in the pores of a polyethylene film were used for the anantioselective transport of amino acid hydrochloride. The degree of stereoselectivity of the permeation process varied from 0.39 to 1.52 depending on both the type of the chiral membrane phase and the properties of the amino acid. The evaluation of the membrane ability to separate stereoisomers was performed by the step-by-step analysis by considering the effect of amino acids' hydrophobicity, polarity and degree of chirality. For the purpose of this paper, the chirality measure was introduced. It was demonstrated that the enantioselectivity was affected mai…
Extraction of peptides from body fluids using supported liquid membranes
2008
Sample pre-treatment is a very important step in many analytical procedures, especially when the analyte is presented in low concentration in complex sample matrices. In this paper, potential using of the supported liquid membrane (SLM) technique as a sample preparation step in order to isolate, pre-concentrate and separate small peptides and phosphono dipeptides from aqueous solutions and body fluids is discussed. An influence of various parameters including carrier type, donor and acceptor phase compositions, presence of salts and proteins in analysed samples on extraction efficiency and selectivity is presented. Additionally, comparison of SLM extraction efficiency from aqueous samples a…
