Development of predictive quantitative retention–activity relationship models of alkaloids by mixed micellar liquid chromatography

The mixed micellar liquid chromatography is a mode that uses mixed micellar system of Brij35/SDS (85 : 15) as a mobile phase under adequate experimental conditions, can simulate the resting membrane potential and the conformation of the long hydrophilic polyoxyethylene chains remains unchanged. In this article, the applications of biopartitioning micellar chromatography, using mixed micellar system to describe and estimate bioactivities of alkaloids, has been focused. The BMC_Brij35/SDS‐QRAR models of half‐life time, volume of distribution, plasma clearance and area under concentration–time curve were obtained using Brij35‐SDS retention data. The aim is to take a look at the capability of the mixed micellar liquid chromatography model to describe and/or estimate the bioactivity of alkaloids. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
