Enantioselective analysis of ofloxacin enantiomers by partial-filling capillary electrophoresis with bacteria as chiral selectors

The enantiomeric separation of ofloxacin enantiomers (OFLX) was achieved by using capillary electrophoresis partial-filled with Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram-negative), and Staphylococcus aureus (Gram-positive) as chiral selectors. Experimental parameters, including the concentration of background electrolyte, applied voltage, length of the filled bacteria plug, and pH of the buffer, were intensively investigated. Baseline separation of OFLX could be achieved within 7 min by using E. coli and P. aeruginosa as chiral selectors under the following conditions: electrophoretic buffer composed of 10 mM phosphate buffer at pH 7.4, applied voltage at 15 kV, and the bacteria (6.0 × 10(8) cells/mL) were injected into the capillary by gravity with injection height of 17.5 cm for 180 s (E. coli), 300 s (P. aeruginosa), and 300 s (S. aureus), respectively. E. coli and P. aeruginosa had better chiral selectivity for OFLX than S. aureus, which was in good agreement with OFLX having better antimicrobial activity on Gram-negative rather than Gram-positive bacteria. A novel method was developed for the enantioselective separation of enantiomers using bacteria as chiral selectors, which provides a new approach for antimicrobials enantioselective analysis, chiral pharmacodynamics, and chiral pharmacokinetics studies.     

Method development and validation for the separation and determination of omeprazole enantiomers in pharmaceutical preparations by capillary electrophoresis

A new capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method for the separation of omeprazole enantiomers has been developed. Methyl-β-cyclodextrin (methyl-β-CD) was chosen as the chiral selector, and several parameters, such as cyclodextrin structure and concentration, buffer concentration, pH, and capillary temperature were investigated in order to optimize separation and run times. Analysis times, shorter than 8 min were found using a background electrolyte solution consisting of 40 mM phosphate buffer adjusted to pH 2.2, 30 mM β-cyclodextrin and 5 mM sodium disulphide, hydrodynamic injection, and 15 kV separation voltage. Detection limits were evaluated on the basis of baseline noise and were established 0.31 mg/l for the omeprazole enantiomers. The proposed method was applied to five pharmaceutical preparations with recoveries between 84 and 104% of the labeled contents.     

Development of a capillary electrophoresis method for the enantioselective estimation of primaquine in pharmaceutical formulations

A capillary electrophoresis (CE) method has been developed that allows the separation and estimation of primaquine enantiomers using hydroxypropyl-gamma-cyclodextrin (HP-gamma -CD) as a chiral selector. The influence of chemical and instrumental parameters on the separation, such as type and concentration of CD, buffer concentration, buffer pH, applied voltage, capillary temperature, and injection time, were investigated. Good separation of the racemic mixture of primaquine was achieved using a fused-silica capillary (52.5 cm effective length x 50 microm id) and a background electrolyte composed of tris-phosphate buffer solution (50 mM, pH 2.5) containing 15 mM HP-gamma-CD as a chiral selector. The recommended applied voltage, capillary temperature, and injection time were 15 kV, 25 degrees C, and 6 s, respectively. Within-day and interday reproducibility of peak area and migration time gave relative standard deviation values ranging from 1.05-3.30%. Good recoveries (range of 96.8-104.9%) were obtained from the determination of placebos that were spiked with 0.25-1.00 mg/L primaquine. The proposed CE method was successfully applied to the assay of primaquine diphosphate in pharmaceutical formulations (tablets).     

Fast enantiomeric separation of propranolol by affinity capillary electrophoresis using human serum albumin as chiral selector: application to quality control of pharmaceuticals

In the last years, capillary electrophoresis (CE) has gained considerable interest in pharmaceutical laboratories for controlling the chiral purity of drugs. This paper describes a simple and fast method for resolution of propranolol enantiomers by affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE) using human serum albumin (HSA) as chiral selector. The effect of several experimental variables such as HSA concentration, temperature, chiral selector plug length and addition of organic modifiers, on the separation is evaluated. Complete enantioresolution of R- and S-propranolol was achieved in less than 5 min when the capillary was completely filled with 100 μM HSA solution and the electrophoresis was carried out with 67 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) at 20 kV and 35 °C. Peaks were assigned to each propranolol enantiomer according to their relative affinities to HSA. The proposed method was applied to the analysis of pharmaceutical preparations containing propranolol. Resolution, accuracy, reproducibility, cost and sample throughput of the proposed method make it suitable for quality control of the enantiomeric composition of propranolol in pharmaceuticals.     

Enatiomeric analysis of simendan by CE with beta-CD as chiral selector compared with CMPA-HPLC

The chiral separation of simendan enantiomers using capillary electrophoresis was studied with beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) as chiral selector. The influences of the concentration and pH of borate buffer solution, beta-CD concentration and methanol content in the background electrolyte were investigated. These factors were compared with those in an HPLC with beta-CD as chiral mobile phase additive (CMPA-HPLC). The quantification properties of the developed CE method were examined. A baseline separation of simendan enantiomers was achieved in the background electrolyte of 20 mmol/L borate buffer (pH 11.0) containing 12 mmol/L beta-CD-methanol (50:50 in volume ratio). The CE method is comparable with CMPA-HPLC in chiral resolution, although the optimal pH in CE (11.0) is much higher than that (6.0) in CMPA-HPLC. This chiral CE method is applicable to the quantitative ananlysis and enantiomeric excess value determination of L-simendan.

Enantioselective Separation of Basic Drugs by CE with Polygalacturonic Acid as a Novel Chiral Selector

Polygalacturonic acid, a linear high molecular weight homopolysaccharide was investigated as a chiral selector in capillary zone electrophoresis for the separation of enantiomers of basic drugs. The choices of running buffer pH and concentration of chiral selector were found to be important for the improvement of enantioselectivity. The effects of background electrolyte concentration and the capillary temperature on the separation were also examined. Enantioseparations were carried out in the acidic conditions using 1.5% polygalacturonic acid (w/v) in a 40 mM phosphate buffer under an applied voltage of 15 kV. The optimization of these separations was dependent on the nature of the analytes and could be achieved by the proper choice of experimental conditions. A brief mechanism of enantiorecognition by polygalacturonic acid was also given.

Enantioseparation of nuarimol by affinity electrokinetic chromatography-partial filling technique using human serum albumin as chiral selector

The present paper deals with the enantiomeric separation of nuarimol enantiomers by affinity EKC-partial filling technique using HSA as chiral selector. Firstly, a study of nuarimol interactions with HSA by CE-frontal analysis was performed. The binding parameters obtained for the first site of interaction were n(1) = 0.84; K(1) = 9.7 +/- 0.3x10(3 )M(-1) and the protein binding percentage of nuarimol at physiological concentration of HSA was 75.2 +/- 0.2%. Due to the moderate affinity of nuarimol towards HSA the possibility of using this protein as chiral selector for the separation of nuarimol using the partial filling technique was evaluated. A multivariate optimization approach of the most critical experimental variables in enantioresolution, running pH, HSA concentration and plug length was carried out. Separation of nuarimol enantiomers was obtained under the following selected conditions: electrophoretic buffer composed of 50 mM Tris at pH 7.3; 160 muM HSA solution applied at 50 mbar for 156 s as chiral selector; nuarimol solutions in the range of 2-8x10(-4) M injected hydrodynamically at 30 mbar for 2 s and the electrophoretic runs performed at 30 degrees C applying 15 kV voltage. Resolution, accuracy, reproducibility speed and cost of the proposed method make it suitable for quality control of the enantiomeric composition of nuarimol in formulations and for further toxicological studies. The results showed a different affinity between nuarimol enantiomers towards HSA.     

Separation of enantiomers of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-derivatives of amino acids by capillary electrophoresis using macrocyclic antibiotics

The potential for the application of macrocyclic antibiotic eremomycin as a chiral selector for the separation of enantiomers of N-derivatives of amino acids in capillary electrophoresis was estimated. The influence of several factors (the composition and pH of the running electrolyte, the concentration of the chiral selector, capillary geometry, the value of the applied voltage) on the migration of the derivatives of amino acids and enantioselectivity in the presence of eremomycin was studied in order to choose the separation conditions. Using the example of the dansyl derivatives of amino acids the enantioselectivities of vancomycin and eremomycin in capillary electrophoresis were compared.     

Chiral separation of 12 pairs of enantiomers by capillary electrophoresis using heptakis‐(2,3‐diacetyl‐6‐sulfato)‐β‐cyclodextrin as the chiral selector and the elucidation of the chiral recognition mechanism by computational methods

Chiral separation of 12 pairs of basic analyte enantiomers including oxybutynin, bambuterol, tradinterol, clenbuterol, clorprenaline, terbutaline, tulobuterol, citalopram, phencynonate, fexofenadine, salbutamol, and penehyclidine was conducted by capillary electrophoresis using a single‐isomer anionic β‐cyclodextrin derivative, heptakis‐(2,3‐diacetyl‐6‐sulfato)‐β‐cyclodextrin as the chiral selector. Parameters influencing separation were studied, including background electrolyte pH, heptakis‐(2,3‐diacetyl‐6‐sulfato)‐β‐cyclodextrin concentration, buffer concentration, and separation voltage. A background electrolyte consisting of 50 mM Tris‐H₃PO₄ and 6 mM heptakis‐(2,3‐diacetyl‐6‐sulfato)‐β‐cyclodextrin at pH 2.5 was found to be highly efficient for the separation of most enantiomers, with other conditions of normal polarity mode at 10 kV, detection wavelength of 210 nm using hydrodynamic injection for 3 s. Under the optimal conditions, baseline resolution (>1.50) for 11 pairs of enantiomers and somewhat lower resolution for penehyclidine enantiomers (1.17) were generated. Moreover, the possible mechanism of separation of clenbuterol, oxybutynin, salbutamol, and penehyclidine was investigated using a computational modeling method.     

Chiral separation of local anaesthetics with capillary electrophoresis

Summary A chiral capillary electrophoresis system for the highresolution separation of the enantiomers of the local anaesthetics mepivacaine, ropivacaine, bupivacaine and prilocaine is described. Triethanolamine was added to the background electrolyte to obtain a negative electroosmotic flow and hence higher resolutions. The interactions of the local anaesthetics and their chemical analogues with the chiral selector, dimethyl--cyclodextrin, were studied. From a model describing chiral capillary electrophoresis, the association equilibrium constants were determined by curve-fitting. The separation of mepivacaine, ropivacaine and bupivacaine was due to the different mobilities of the free analytes in solution, whereas the separation of a pair of enantiomers of a single analyte was due to differences between the association equilibrium constantsK ₁ andK ₂. Branching of the alkyl chain, which was situated close to the cavity in the inclusion complex, had strong effects on the chiral separation of the enantiomers.     

Enantioseparation of amino acid derivatives by capillary zone electrophoresis using vancomycin as chiral selector

The separation of racemic derivatized amino acids (N-acetyl) into their enantiomers was achieved using capillary zone electrophoresis employing vancomycin as a chiral selector. Due to the strong absorption properties of the chiral selector at the low wavelengths used, the partial-filling countercurrent method was adopted in order to improve method sensitivity. In the separation system studied, the chiral selector filled only a part of the capillary and, due to the appropriate selection of the pH, was moving in the opposite direction of the analytes keeping the detector free from absorbing compounds. The effect of several experimental parameters on the enantioresolution of analytes was studied, e.g., vancomycin concentration (0-5 mM), pH of the background electrolyte (pH 4-7), capillary temperature (15-35 degrees C), and the presence of an organic modifier in the run buffer (methanol or ethanol or n-propanol). N-Acetyl glutamic acid, serine, cystine, tyrosine, and proline were all baseline-resolved into their enantiomers and the enantioresolution factor (R(s)) was increased by raising the vancomycin concentration. pH 4 allowed the baseline resolution of the five studied analytes in the presence of 2.5 mM of chiral selector and an increase in pH caused a decrease of R(s).     

Simultaneous separation and enantioresolution of racemic local anesthetic drugs by capillary zone electrophoresis with Tween 20 and methyl-beta-cyclodextrin as selectors, employing a double plug technique

A new approach for simultaneous chiral and achiral separations by capillary zone electrophoresis is described. Two adjacent selector plugs, consisting of Tween 20 as an achiral and methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (CD) as a chiral selector, are employed and four related local anesthetics are used as model compounds. The principles of the partial filling technique, whereby the capillary is filled with the chiral selector solution followed by the micellar solution at different plug lengths and concentrations, prior to application of the solutes, was employed. During the run both capillary ends were dipped in a simple buffer, i.e., one without additives. The two separation media worked independently without any interaction. Separation of the solutes and their enantiomers was regulated by adjusting both the concentration and plug length (PL) of the micellar solution in the capillary, employing methyl beta-CD as chiral selector either at 38 or 76 mM. The solutes were separated on the basis of their affinity towards the micellar phase before they reached the methyl-beta-CD plug for enantioseparation. In the absence of the micellar plug, the enantiomers of prilocaine overlapped those of bupivacaine. The solutes and their enantiomers were completely separated by employing two adjacent plugs consisting of 100 mM Tween 20 solution (PL approximately 10 cm) and methyl-beta-CD solution at either 38 or 76 mM (PL approximately 30 cm).     

Rapid development of the enantiomeric separation of beta-blockers by capillary electrophoresis using an experimental design approach.

A rapid method for determining the separation conditions for chiral resolution of eleven beta-blocking drug substances by capillary electrophoresis is described, using an experimental design approach. An acidic phosphate-triethanolamine buffer and an uncoated fused-silica capillary were used for all experiments. Several modified cyclodextrins were applied as chiral selectors: sulfobutyl ether beta-cyclodextrin (SBE-beta CD), dimethyl beta-cyclodextrin (DM-beta CD), carboxymethyl beta-cyclodextrin (CM-beta CD), and hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta CD). Two different fractional factorial experimental designs were applied: (1) a design examining four factors at three levels (3(4-2)) and (2) one examining three factors at two levels (2(3-1)). The factors studied were: type of cyclodextrin, cyclodextrin concentration, pH of the background electrolyte and percentage of organic modifier. Enough resolution for the separation of the enantiomers and even for their quantification was reached. The same scheme is proposed when a fast chiral separation method needs to be developed for other drug families.     

Enantioseparation of phenotiazines by affinity electrokinetic chromatography using human serum albumin as chiral selector: application to enantiomeric quality control in pharmaceutical formulations

Nowadays, there is a special interest within the pharmaceutical laboratories to develop single enantiomer formulations and consequently a need for analytical methods to determine the enantiomeric purity of drugs. The present paper deals with the enantiomeric separation of promethazine and trimeprazine enantiomers by affinity electrokinetic chromatography (AEKC)-partial filling technique using human serum albumin (HSA) as chiral selector. A multivariate optimization of the most critical experimental variables in enantioresolution, running pH, HSA concentration and plug length, is carried out to obtain enantioresolution of promethazine and trimeprazine. The estimated maximum and optimum resolution of trimeprazine and prometazine enantiomers (Rs = 1.74 and 2.01, respectively) corresponded to the following experimental conditions: pH 7.5; [HSA] 170 μM and plug length 190 s and pH 7.6; [HSA] 170 μM and plug length 170 s, for trimeprazine and prometazine, respectively. The developed methodologies were applied for the enantiomeric quality control of promethazine and trimeprazine enantiomers in commercially available pharmaceutical formulations. Resolution, accuracy, reproducibility, cost and sample throughput of the proposed methodologies make it suitable for quality control of the enantiomeric composition of promethazine and trimeprazine in pharmaceutical preparations.     

Enantioseparation of beta-blockers with two chiral centers by capillary electrophoresis using sulfated beta-cyclodextrins.

Capillary electrophoresis methods for the enantioresolution of two beta-blockers possessing two chiral centers--labetalol and nadolol--were developed using electrokinetic chromatography. These methods were based on the addition of sulfated beta-cyclodextrins (S-betaCD) as chiral selectors to the background electrolyte (BGE). Different operating parameters (pH and ionic strength of the BGE, concentration of S-beta-CD) were investigated using a normal or reversed polarity mode. A complete resolution of the four isomers of labetalol was obtained either at the cathode or at the anode according to the pH of the BGE. The resolution of nadolol was observed whatever polarity of the applied voltage but a baseline separation of the four enantiomers within a time of analysis appropriate to routine assay was only obtained at the anode. This optimal separation was performed using high concentrations of chiral additive in an acidic pH buffer of low molarity. Besides the complete enantiomeric separation of the beta-blockers studied, the interest of the proposed methods is to permit a reversal of the migration order of the different enantiomers. This could be of high interest in quality control for the study of enantiomeric purity, which is now required for the development of drugs and chemicals.     

Separation and migration behavior of structurally related phenothiazines in cyclodextrin-modified capillary zone electrophoresis

The influences of buffer pH and the concentration of beta-cyclodextrins (beta-CDs) on the separation and migration behavior of 13 structurally related phenothiazines in CD-modified capillary zone electrophoresis (CD-CZE) using a phosphate background electrolyte at low pH were investigated. We focused on the separation of these phenothiazines, including the enantiomers of chiral analytes, with the use of beta-CD and hydroxypropyl-beta-CD (HP-beta-CD) as electrolyte modifiers or chiral selectors at concentrations less than 8 mM. The results indicate that the interactions of phenothiazines with beta-CDs are very strong and that effective separations of 13 analytes can be achieved with addition of 0.3 mM beta-CD or 0.5 mM HP-beta-CD in a phosphate buffer at pH 3.0. Binding constants of phenothiazines to beta-CDs were evaluated for a better understanding of the interactions of phenothiazines with beta-CDs.
