Separation of phenolic acids in soil and plant tissue extracts by co-electroosmotic capillary electrophoresis with direct UV detection

Summary A capillary zone electrophoretic method for the analysis of phenolic acids in soil and plant extracts was developed with direct UV detection using a phosphate electrolyte solution. The electrophoretic separation required the phenolic acids to be charged at a pH above their pKa in order to achieve their migration towards the anode. Electroosmotic flow (EOF) was reversed in direction by adding tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB). Factors affecting the separation selectivity, including the buffer pH and EOF modifiers, were investigated systematically. Eight phenolic acids were separated and detected in 10 min using an electrolyte containing 25 mM phosphate, 0.5 mM TTAB and 15% acetonitrile (v/v) at pH of 7.20. Linear plots for the test phenolic acids were obtained in a concentration range of 0.01–1 mM with detection limits in the range of 1.0–7.0 μM. The recoveries ranged from 92.8 to 102.3% in soil and plant tissues samples spiked at 100 μM and the relative standard deviation based on the peak area were ranged 2.0 to 4.5%. The proposed method was used for the determination of phenolic acids in plant tissue and soil extracts with direct injection.     

Toward the assembly of heparin and heparan sulfate oligosaccharide libraries: efficient synthesis of uronic acid and disaccharide building blocks

The monosaccharide moieties found in heparin (HP) and heparan sulfate (HS), glucosamine and two kinds of uronic acids, glucuronic and iduronic acids, were efficiently synthesized by use of glucosamine hydrochloride and glucurono-6,3-lactone as starting compounds. In the synthesis of the disaccharide building block, the key issues of preparation of uronic acids (glucuronic acid and iduronic acid moieties) were achieved in 12 steps and 15 steps, respectively, without cumbersome C-6 oxidation. The resulting monosaccharide moieties were utilized to the syntheses of HP/HS disaccharide building blocks possessing glucosamine-glucuronic acid (GlcN-GlcA) or iduronic acid (GlcN-IdoA) sequences. The disaccharide building blocks were also suitable for further modification such as glycosylation, selective deprotection, and sulfation.     

Determination of glycuronic acids by high-performance anion chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection

Summary Acid hydrolysis (0.25M H₂SO₄) coupled with enzyme catalysis (pectolyase and β-D-glucuronidase) were employed to extract galacturonic and glucuronic acids from microbial polysaccharides, plant residues, animal wastes, sewage sludge and soil. The glycuronic acids were separated by high-performance anion chromatography (HPAC) on a strong anion-exchange column using 0.1M sodium hydroxide with 0.25M sodium acetate as the mobile phase and determined by pulsed amperometric detection (PAD). HPAC-PAD was found to be superior to high-performance liquid chromatography with ultra-violet (UV) detection in terms of resolution and sensitivity of glycuronic acids. HPAC-PAD was not subject to interferences present with low UV detection (210 nm) and was highly selective for glycuronic acids. Enzymatic hydrolysis after treatment with mild acid (0.25M H₂SO₄) released galacturonic acids from orange peel and pectin, while glucuronic acid was released from Acacia powder. Large amounts of glycuronic acids were also extracted from plant materials. Low levels of uronic acids were detected in poultry manure, sewage sludge and organic-amended soils.

Simultaneous Determination of Organic Acids in Wine Samples by Capillary Electrophoresis and UV Detection: Optimization with Five Different Background Electrolytes

A simple technique is described for the routine capillary electrophoretic determination of organic acids in wine samples. Several aromatic and non‐aromatic compounds, including phthalic acid, benzoic acid, sorbic acid, boric acid, and phosphate, were evaluated as background electrolytes in order to obtain the highest resolution and detection sensivity. Factors that affect capillary electrophoretic separation such as the concentration and pH of the background electrolyte (BGE), the concentration of the electroosmotic flow modifier (EOF), and methanol addition to the electrolyte were investigated systematically. Tartaric, malic, succinic, acetic, and lactic acids were determined simultaneously in approximately six minutes using an electrolyte containing 3 mM phosphate and 0.5 mM myristyltrimethylammonium bromide (MTAB) as electroosmotic flow modifier at pH 6.5. This method is quantitative, with recoveries in the 90–102% range and linear up to 50 mg L^–1. The precision is better than 1% and the procedure shows the appropriate sensibility, with detection limits between 0.015 and 0.054 mg L^–1. The proposed method was successfully employed for the determination of organic acids in wine samples by direct sample injection after appropriate dilution and filtration.     

Optimized hydrolysis and analysis of Radix Asparagi polysaccharide monosaccharide composition by capillary zone electrophoresis

Using orthogonal design, optimized conditions for the hydrolysis of the polysaccharide from Radix Asparagi were determined, as well as its monosaccharide composition. Optimized hydrolysis conditions were a temperature of 100°C in 1.5 M sulfuric acid solution for 5 h. The resulting monosaccharides were derivatized with 1‐phenyl‐3‐methyl‐5‐pyrazolone, then separated by capillary zone electrophoresis in 40 mM sodium tetraborate buffer (pH 10.1), and detected by ultraviolet absorption at 245 nm. Results indicate that the polysaccharide from Radix Asparagi is composed of xylose, arabinose, glucose, rhamnose, mannose, galactose, glucuronic acid, and galacturonic acid, which differs from published findings. Moreover, xylose, glucuronic acid, and galacturonic acid have not been previously reported in Radix Asparagi polysaccharide. This method is simple, fast, and yields a highly efficient separation. As well, these findings can be applied to quality control of Radix Asparagi and for in‐depth study of the biological activity of Radix Asparagi polysaccharide.     

Analysis of formic and acetic acid in rain water by capillary electrophoresis

A simple technique is described for the routine capillary electrophoretic determination of formic and acetic acid in rain water. These acids were determined simultaneously in approximately 6 min using a carrier electrolyte containing lO mM phosphate and 0.5 mM myristyltrimethylammonium bromide (MTAB) as electroosmotic flow (EOF) modifier at pH 6.5 and direct UV detection at 185nm. The method is quantitative, with recoveries in the 99-101% range and linear up to 5mgL^-1. The precision is better than 2.1% and the procedure shows the appropriate sensitivity, with detection limits between 0.042 and 0.055mg L^-1. The proposed method was successfully employed for the determination of formic and acetic acid in 57 rain water samples, collected from October 2000 to February 2001 in four different sampling stations located in Galicia (NW Spain), by direct sample injection after filtration.     

Characterisation of natural polysaccharides (plant gums) used as binding media for artistic and historic works by capillary zone electrophoresis

The monosaccharide constituents of plant gums were separated by capillary electrophoresis at pH 12.1 and detected with indirect UV absorbance. The plant gums investigated were gum arabic, gum acacia, gum tragacanth, cherry gum and locust bean gum (carob gum). The monosaccharides obtained after hydrolysis with 2M trifluoroacetic acid and lyophilisation of the hydrolysate were arabinose, galactose, mannose, rhamnose, xylose, fucose, and glucose, and the two sugar acids galacturonic and glucuronic acid, in accordance with the literature. They were separated in a background electrolyte consisting of NaOH to adjust the pH, 20 mM 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid as chromophore for detection and 0.5 mM cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as additive to reverse the electroosmotic flow. Based on their electropherograms, the plant gums could be identified by their typical composition (depicted in a decision scheme) as follows: a peak of glucuronic acid, together with that of rhamnose, is indicative for gum arabic. Peaks of galacturonic acid and fucose point to gum tragacanth. Locust bean gum shows a major peak for mannose (with the concomitant galactose peak in ratio 4-1), whereas a glucuronic acid and a mannose peak together with a prominent arabinose peak indicates cherry gum. The method was applied to identify the plant gums in samples like watercolours and in several paint layers like gum tempera or those with egg white or drying oils as additives. Artificial aging experiments of thin layers of gum arabic on paper or glass carried out with UV-A radiation (366 nm) did not result in changes of the saccharide patterns, in contrast to the simultaneously conducted aging of a drying oil layer.     

Polymeric ionic liquid as a background electrolyte modifier enhancing the separation of inorganic anions by capillary electrophoresis

A novel and easy method for the separation of inorganic anions by capillary electrophoresis using a polymeric ionic liquid (PIL), poly(1-vinyl-3-butylimidazolium bromide) as a background electrolyte modifier has been developed. The PIL has been proved to generate a reversed electroosmotic flow which reduces the analysis time and improves the separation significantly. Effects of the PIL concentration and buffer composition (pH and concentration) were evaluated on basis of the resolution and efficiency of the sample. Under optimum conditions, good separation of six model inorganic anions was achieved with high efficiency and excellent reproducibility within 3 min. The results obtained indicate that the combination of reversed EOF and the association between the analytes and the PIL on the capillary wall or BGE play a prominent role in the separation of anions. Therefore, the PIL presents a useful alternative for the BGE modifier in the study of inorganic anions by CE.     

Fluorophotometric Determination of Glucuronic Acid Using the Fluorescence-Reaction with N-Benzyl-2-Naphthylamine

Abstract

First, the fluorescence-reactions between glucuronic acid (D-glucuronolactone) as an uronic acid and N-benzyl-2-naphthylamine(NBNA) or N-benzyl-1-naphthylamine(NB-1-NA) as a secondary naphthylamine were systematically investigated in acetic acid medium. Secondly, NBNA-glucuronic acid fluorescence-product that has a maximum emission wavelength(Em) at 508 nm with excitation wavelength(Ex) at 468 nm was used for a selective assay of glucuronic acid; the calibration curve was linear in the range from 5 ng/ml to 2.0 μg/ml glucuronic acid, and the recovery test in normal urine was satisfactory (98.4–102.5%).     

Trace analysis of oxidized, nitrated, and chlorinated aromatic amino acids by capillary electrophoresis with electroosmotic flow modification allowing large-volume sample stacking

A capillary electrophoresis method has been developed for the simultaneous analysis of the oxidized, nitrated, and chlorinated aromatic amino acids, as well as their parent compounds. These modifications of the aromatic amino acids in proteins or free form are induced by the attack of reactive, mainly free radical species generated during cell stress, and these stable products may serve as biomarkers of cell damage. The analytes tyrosine, phenylalanine, dihydroxyphenylalanine, tryptophan, 3-nitrotyrosine, 3-chlorotyrosine, ortho-tyrosine, meta-tyrosine, 3-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (internal standard 1), and alpha-methyltyrosine (internal standard 2) were separated in their anionic forms in alkaline borate buffer. The polyamine spermine was used as electroosmotic flow (EOF) modifier. Adsorbing to the capillary wall, spermine can either suppress or even reverse the EOF depending on its concentration and the pH. The effects of the pH of the separation buffer, the spermine concentration, the temperature, and the applied field strength on the separation were examined. The modified aromatic amino acids are present in biological fluids in a much lower concentration than their parent compounds, thus high detection sensitivity of the analytical method is required. To achieve good detection sensitivity, field-amplified sample stacking of large injection volumes was applied. Omitting polyamine from the sample buffer allowed local reversal of the EOF, thus removal of the low conductivity sample buffer at the capillary inlet. In this way, 100% of the capillary to the detection window could be filled with the sample, and the detection limits achieved for the modified aromatic amino acids were in the range of 2.5-10 nM.     

Analysis of low-molecular-mass organic acids using capillary zone electrophoresis-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

A capillary zone electrophoresis-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (CZE-ESI-MS) method was developed to facilitate identification and determination of eleven low-molecular-mass (LMW) organic acids (i.e. oxalic, lactic, malonic, maleic, citric, tartaric, adipic, glutaric, gluconic, isosaccharinic and succinic acid) in different sample matrices. This CZE method was adapted to suit MS conditions. Sheath liquid, sheath flow and MS parameters were optimized to achieve high mass spectrometric sensitivity. The CZE-ESI-MS procedure showed good sensitivity (limit of detection of < 0.05-0.7 mg/l for all acids), linearity (r2 = 0.9925-0.9998) and reproducibility (2.09-5.34% RSD). The applicability of the CZE-ESI-MS was demonstrated on LMW organic acids in an ale sample. In addition the (here presented) method also provided quantification of fumaric, galacturonic and 2-ketoglutaric acid with high sensitivity.     

Simultaneous Determination of Aldoses and Uronic Acids of Citrus Pectin by LC with Precolumn Derivatization and UV Detection

The simultaneous determination of aldoses and uronic acids is now available by liquid chromatography. The procedure involves acid hydrolysis followed by derivatization with 3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole, which was first employed for aldoses and uronic acids derivatization. The usefulness of this method is seen in the ability to analyze commercially available citrus pectin. The results show that citrus pectin consists of xylose, glucose, arabinose, rhamnose, galactose and galacturonic acid in molar ratios of 0.3:1.0:1.8:2.8:7.4:50.9, which was consistent with the result obtained by GC. The described method is suitable for routine analysis of pectin or other polysaccharides containing uronic acids.     

Characterization of neutral sugars and uronic acids after methanolysis and trimethylsilylation for recognition of plant gums

The main standard neutral sugars and uronic acids that occur as components of plant gums were methanolysed and silylated for study by gas chromatography—electron impact and chemical ionization mass spectrometry (GC—EI-MS and GC—CI-MS). The 25 TMSi methylglycosides, components of the chromatograms obtained were studied and identified by their mass spectra and/or comparison with the corresponding standards. In addition, an unusual uronic acid (4-O-methylglucuronic acid) and the lactone forms of glucuronic acid are reported. A classification of the ions in both EI-MS and CI-MS which allows differentiation between sugar classes and their tautomeric forms is given. The sample preparation method and the results of the above identification were applied to the analysis of some plant gums and a seventeenth century ink sample.     

Separation of native amino acids at low pH by capillary electrophoresis

Amino Acids are cations at low PH and can be readily separated by capillarty electrophoresis provided an alkanesulfonic acid is added to the elecrolyte carrier. Formation of a Positive net charge on the bare fused-silica surface at low PH was confirmed by measurement of an anodic electroosmotic flow. The addition of ethanesulfonic acid or octanesulfonic acid to the electrolyte carrier causes a reversal of the EOF. A mechanism is proposed in which the alkanesulfonic acid adsorbs to the positively-charged capillary wall through electrostatci attraction. Adsorption of a second molecule of alkanesulfonate by hudrophobic attraction to the carbon chain forms a negatively-charge coating on the capillary wall. The alkanesuflfonate also imparts selectivety to the system by participation in ionpairing interactions with the native amino acids to improve resolution. The CE separation of a mixture of the twenty common amino acids at PH 2.8 with direct absorabance detection at 185 nm resulted in 17 amino acid peals in 20 minutes with a 30 KV applied voltage. The effect of several variables was studied including electrolyte carrieres containing different alkanesulfonic acids, the influence of PH, applied voltage, and concentration of electrolyte carrier.     

Simultaneous Determination of Inorganic Anions and Organic Acids in Environmental Samples by Capillary Zone Electrophoresis with Indirect UV Detection

Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) with indirect UV detection was developed for the simultaneous determination of inorganic anions and organic acids in environmental samples. Various aromatic acids (benzoic, phthalic, trimellitic, and pyromellitic acids) were evaluated as background electrolytes (BGEs) to give high resolution and detection sensitivity. Co-electroosmotic conditions such as the concentration of BGE, electrolyte pH, and EOF modifier were systematically investigated. Three inorganic anions and ten organic acids were determined simultaneously in 10 min using an electrolyte containing 10 mM phthalic acid, 0.5 mM myristyltrimethylammonium bromide (MTAB), and 5% methanol (MeOH) (v/v) at pH 5.60. Linear plots for the test solutes were obtained in the concentration range 0.01–1.0 mM with detection limits in the range 5–30 μM. The proposed method was successfully demonstrated for the determination of inorganic anions and organic acids in natural water, soil, and plant extracts after direct sample injection.     

Capillary electrochromatography using a fluoropolymer as the chromatographic support material

Fused-silica capillary columns were packed with ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene (ECTFE) particles for use in capillary electrochromatography (CEC). Electroosmotic flow (EOF) was generated in these columns using acetonitrile-water mixtures as the mobile phase. Electroosmotic mobilities of 1.6 x 10(-4) cm2 V(-1) s(-1) (linear velocities of 1 mm s(-1)) were observed using a mobile phase without an electrolyte present. The EOF in the ECTFE-packed columns is enhanced when using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) as a mobile phase additive; electroosmotic mobilities of 3.65 x 10(-4) cm2 (V-1) s(-1) (linear velocity of 2.5 mm s(-1)) were observed. This enhancement of EOF is attributed to dynamic coating of the ECTFE particles by TFA. Other electrolytes (i.e., Tris/Tris-HCl buffer and H3PO4) in the mobile phase did not have such an enhancement of EOF. However, a slight enhancement of EOF is observed, for example, if small quantities of TFA are added to the mobile phase containing Tris buffer. The potential of ECTFE for CEC is demonstrated by separating a mixture of amino acids.

Electroosmotic flow-balanced isotachophoretic stacking with continuous electrokinetic injection for the concentration of anions in high conductivity samples

An EOF counter-balanced ITP boundary has been used to stack anions from high conductivity samples during continuous electrokinetic injection of the sample. In a polystyrenesulfonate/poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) polyelectrolyte coated capillary, the time at which the ITP boundary exited the capillary could be prolonged by balancing the movement of the boundary with the EOF. Using a bis-tris-propane electrolyte, the ITP boundary was removed from the capillary within 7 min, while when using triethanolamine the ITP boundary was still at 30% of the capillary after 2 h of injection. Using these systems, the sensitivity of a mixture of simple organic acids in 100 mM Cl⁻ was improved by 700–800-fold using bis-tris-propane with a whole-capillary injection of the sample and 5 min of electrokinetic injection at +28 kV, and 1100–1300-fold using triethanolamine and 60 min of electrokinetic injection under the same conditions. The potential of the method to be applicable to high conductivity samples was demonstrated by stacking a whole capillary filled with urine spiked with naphthalenedisulfonic acid, with limits of detection 450 times lower than those achievable with a normal hydrodynamic injection.
