Capillary reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) utilizing monolithic poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) columns was optimized for the coupling to electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) by the application of various temperatures and mobile phase additives during peptide and protein analysis. Peak widths at half height improved significantly upon increasing the temperature and ranged from 2.0 to 5.4 s for peptide and protein separations at 70 degrees. Selectivity of peptide elution was significantly modulated by temperature, whereas the effect on proteins was only minor. A comparison of 0.10% formic acid (FA), 0.050% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), and 0.050% heptafluorobutyric acid (HFBA) as mobile phase additives revealed that highest chromatographic efficiency but poorest mass spectrometric detectabilities were achieved with HFBA. Clusters of HFBA, water, and acetonitrile were observed in the mass spectra at m/z values >500. Although the signal-to-noise ratios for the individual peptides diverged considerably both in the selected ion chromatograms and extracted mass spectra, the average mass spectrometric detectabilities varied only by a factor of less than 1.7 measured with the different additives. Limits of detection for peptides with 500 nl sample volumes injected onto a 60 mm x 0.20 mm monolithic column were in the 0.2-13 fmol range. In the analysis of hydrophobic membrane proteins, HFBA enabled highest separation selectivity at the cost of lower mass spectral quality. The use of 0.050% TFA as mobile phase additive turned out to be the best compromise between chromatographic and mass spectrometric performance in the analysis of peptides and proteins by RP-HPLC-ESI-MS using monolithic separation columns. 相似文献

Monolithic columns based on poly-(styrene-divinylbenzene) (PS-DVB) were utilized both for preconcentration (in 10 mm x 0.20 mm I.D. format) and analytical separation (in 60 mm x 0.20 and 0.10 mm I.D. format) of peptides and proteins in column switching micro-scale high-performance liquid chromatography. A special holder for short monolithic preconcentration columns was designed and pressure durability tests approved long-term stability up to 400 bar. An 11-20% decrease in the average peak widths of nine peptides was obtained upon combining a preconcentration column with an analytical column as compared with a setup using an analytical column only. Trapping efficiency, especially for small and hydrophilic peptides, was optimized by using 0.10% heptafluorobutyric acid instead of 0.050% trifluoroacetic acid as solvent additive during sample loading. Using a 10 mm x 0.20 mm I.D. preconcentration column, loadabilities between 0.5 and 1.6 microg were determined by frontal analysis of proteins and bioactive peptides, respectively. A 100-fold concentration followed by direct on-line intact mass determination is demonstrated for diluted (3 micromolL(-1)) protein solutions. The applicability of the monolithic preconcentration column for multidimensional chromatography was tested by off-line two-dimensional separation, combining strong cation-exchange chromatography and ion-pair reversed-phase chromatography. Peptide identification data from digested protein mixtures demonstrated reproducibilities of 46-75% in triplicate analyses, and confident peptide identifications of low abundant peptides even in the presence of a 650-fold molar excess of high abundant peptides. 相似文献

Monolithic silica capillary columns were successfully prepared in a fused silica capillary of 530 microm inner diameter and evaluated in HPLC after octadecylsilylation (ODS). Their efficiency and permeability were compared with those of columns pakked with 5-microm and 3-microm ODS-silica particles. The monolithic silica columns having different domain sizes (combined size of through-pore and skeleton) showed 2.5-4.0-times higher permeability (K= 5.2-8.4 x 10(-14) m2) than capillary columns packed with 3-mm particles, while giving similar column efficiency. The monolithic silica capillary columns gave a plate height of about 11-13 microm, or 11 200-13 400 theoretical plates/150 mm column length, in 80% methanol at a linear mobile phase velocity of 1.0 mm/s. The monolithic column having a smaller domain size showed higher column efficiency and higher pressure drop, although the monolithic column with a larger domain size showed better overall column performance, or smaller separation impedance (E value). The larger-diameter (530 microm id) monolithic silica capillary column afforded a good peak shape in gradient elution of proteins at a flow rate of up to 100 microL/min and an injection volume of up to 10 microL. 相似文献

Reduction of through-pore size and skeleton size of a monolithic silica column was attempted to provide high separation efficiency in a short time. Monolithic silica columns were prepared to have various sizes of skeletons (approximately 1-2 microm) and through-pores (approximately 2-8 microm) in a fused-silica capillary (50-200 microm I.D.). The columns were evaluated in HPLC after derivatization to C18 phase. It was possible to prepare monolithic silica structures in capillaries of up to 200 microm I.D. from a mixture of tetramethoxysilane and methyltrimethoxysilane. As expected, a monolithic silica column with smaller domain size showed higher column efficiency and higher pressure drop. High external porosity (> 80%) and large through-pores resulted in high permeability (K = 8 x 10(-14) -1.3 x 10(-12) m2) that was 2-30 times higher than that of a column packed with 5-mirom silica particles. The monolithic silica columns prepared in capillaries produced a plate height of about 8-12 microm with an 80% aqueous acetonitrile mobile phase at a linear velocity of 1 mm/s. Separation impedance, E, was found to be as low as 100 under optimum conditions, a value about an order of magnitude lower than reported for conventional columns packed with 5-microm particles. Although a column with smaller domain size generally resulted in higher separation impedance and the lower total performance, the monolithic silica columns showed performance beyond the limit of conventional particle-packed columns under pressure-driven conditions. 相似文献

A comprehensive normal phase system LC-reversed phase LC (NPLC x RPLC) was evaluated for the separation of a pharmaceutical mixture and citrus oil extracts. NPLC was performed on a 25 cm x 1 mm ID x 5 microm dp diol phase. In the second dimension, an RP 18 monolithic column (10 cm L x 4.6 mm ID x 2 microm macropore size) and an octadecyl silicagel-packed column (5 cm L x 4.6 mm ID x 3.5 microm dp) were applied for the analyses of the pharmaceutical sample and the citrus oil extracts, respectively. A two-position/ten-port switching valve was used as interface. Under optimised LC conditions, the high degree of orthogonality between NP and RP resulted in peak capacities of 300 for the pharmaceutical sample and of 450 for the citrus oil extract composed of lemon and orange oil. Despite the features of NPLC x RPLC, several shortcomings related with the solvent incompatibility between the two LC modes were identified and the practical consequences were discussed. 相似文献

This article describes the synthesis, chromatographic characterization, and performance evaluation of analytical (100 x 4.6 mm id) and semipreparative (100 x 10 mm id) monolithic silica columns with mixed-mode RP/weak anion-exchange (RP/WAX) surface modification. The monolithic RP/WAX columns were obtained by immobilization of N-(10-undecenoyl)-3-aminoquinuclidine onto thiol-modified monolithic silica columns (Chromolith) by a radical addition reaction. Their chromatographic characterization by Engelhardt and Tanaka tests revealed slightly lower hydrophobic selectivities than C-8 phases, as well as higher polarity and also improved shape selectivity than RP-18e silica rods. The surface modification enabled separation by both RP and anion-exchange chromatography principles, and thus showed complementary selectivities to the RP-18e monoliths. The mixed-mode monoliths have been tested for the separation of peptides and turned out to be particularly useful for hydrophilic acidic peptides, which are usually insufficiently retained on RP-18e monolithic columns. Compared to a corresponding particulate RP/WAX column (5 microm, 10 nm pore diameter), the analytical RP/WAX monolith caused lower system pressure drops and showed, as expected, higher efficiency (e.g. by a factor of about 2.5 lower C-term for a tetrapeptide). The upscaling from the analytical to semipreparative column dimension was also successful. 相似文献

Novel monolithic supports (MS/BVPE) were prepared by thermally initiated free radical copolymerisation of p-methylstyrene (MS) and 1,2-bis(p-vinylphenyl)ethane (BVPE). The polymer was synthesised in fused silica capillaries (80 mm x 0.2 mm and 80 mm x 0.53 mm) and in borosilicate glass columns (90 mm x 1.0 mm and 90 mm x 3.0 mm) to yield different HPLC column designs. A comparison of those column dimensions regarding morphology as well as separation efficiency and applicability in bioanalysis is presented. The efficiency towards proteins as well as oligonucleotides was found to be considerably improved with decreasing column I.D. While a 5-protein mixture was baseline separated on all investigated column designs, the separation of small biomolecules like oligonucleotides or peptides on microbore and conventional size glass columns was strongly restricted in terms of resolution due to extensive peak broadening or the occurrence of peak asymmetry. Monolithic MS/BVPE capillary columns up to 0.53 mm I.D., however, proved to be applicable to the fractionation of the whole spectrum of biopolymers, including proteins, peptides, oligonucleotides as well as double-stranded DNA fragments. Due to the fact that reliable chromatography makes great demand on the robustness of the stationary phase, monolithic MS/BVPE capillaries were subjected to a comprehensive reproducibility study including run-to-run as well as batch-to-batch reproducibility. 相似文献

This paper describes approaches to optimize the chromatographic performance for our recently developed LC-MS platform, extended range proteomic analysis (ERPA), for comprehensive protein characterization at the ultratrace level. Large digested peptide fragments up to 10 kDa (e.g., from lysyl endopeptidase digestion) with or without modifications were well separated with high resolution using narrow bore (20 and 50 microm I.D.) poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) (PS-DVB) monolithic columns constructed by in situ solution polymerization. Importantly, the macroporous structure of the monolithic columns facilitated mass transport of large peptides with improved recovery relative to small pore size reversed-phase packings. High sequence coverage (>95%), including identification of phosphorylated and glycosylated particles was achieved for beta-casein and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) at the 4 and 20 fmol levels per injection, respectively, using the 20 microm I.D. PS-DVB monolithic column. For peptides with greater ionization efficiency, the detection limit could be lowered to approximately 400 zmol. Typically, the separation system produced a peak capacity of approximately 200 for a 10 cm column. This paper demonstrates that narrow-bore monolithic columns are suitable for high sensitivity and high-resolution separation of large peptide fragments by LC-MS analysis. 相似文献

A study comparing recently available 100 x 3 mm id, 200 x 3 mm id monolithic reversed-phase columns with a 50 x 2.1 mm id, 1.8 microm particle packed reversed-phase columns was carried out to determine the most efficient approach (using traditional van Deemter analysis and a modern kinetic plot approach) for the rapid screening of samples for 16 illicit drugs and associated metabolites. A plot of column backpressure versus plate number (N) showed a significant advantage of using the monolithic phases, with the 20 cm monolithic column exhibiting a maximum 15,000 plates at a column backpressure of approximately 70 bar, compared to approximately 7000 plates at 150 bar for the 5 cm 1.8 microm particle packed column. Optimum linear velocities were found to be 0.40 mm s(-1), 0.52 mm s(-1) and 0.98 mm s(-1) for the three above columns, respectively. The 20 cm monolithic column was subsequently applied to the separation and determination of illicit drug contamination on Irish euro banknotes, using methanol extraction followed by LC-MS/MS. Method performance data showed that the new LC-MS/MS method was significantly more sensitive than previous GC-MS/MS based methods for this application, with detection limits in the pg note(-1) region, based upon a 20 microL standard injection. All of the notes examined tested positive for trace quantities of cocaine, with benzoylecgonine detected on 12 of the 45 notes sampled. Traces of heroin were also detected on three of the 45 notes. 相似文献

Miniaturization embracing instrumentation, column particle size, and column dimensions is one of the major current trends in separation techniques. This leads to shortening of analysis time and great savings in solvent consumption. Ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) is one of the new developments in liquid chromatography. An ultra-high pressure system allows using of small particle-packed columns with small diameter, which has a positive effect on both system efficiency and analysis time. An analytical method for determination of the active substance diclofenac, the degradation product 1-(2,6-dichlorphenyl)-2-indolinone, and the preservatives methylparaben and propylparaben was used for testing and comparing LC systems. Various octadecylsilica-based analytical columns were examined. Acquity UPLC BEH C18 (2.1 x 50 mm, 1.7 microm) and (2.1 x 100 mm, 1.7 microm) were tested for UPLC. The following analytical columns were used in a test for HPLC: Purospher RP 18e (125 x 4.0 mm, 5 microm), Zorbax Eclipse XDB C18 (75 x 4.6 mm, 3.5 microm), Zorbax Eclipse SB C18 (50 x 4.6 mm, 1.8 microm), as was a monolithic column (Chromolith Performance RP-18e (100 x 4.6 mm). Results of a System Suitability Test (SST) were calculated and compared for each chromatographic peak. System efficiency and analysis duration were compared with regard to solvent consumption and system maintenance 相似文献

Bioactive peptides and tryptic digests of various proteins were separated under acidic and alkaline conditions by ion-pair-reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPIPC) in 200 microm I.D. monolithic, poly(styrene-divinylbenzene)-based capillary columns using gradients of acetonitrile in 0.050% aqueous trifluoroacetic acid, pH 2.1, or 1.0% triethylamine-acetic acid, pH 10.6. Chromatographic performances with mobile phases of low and high-pH were practically equivalent and facilitated the separation of more than 50 tryptic peptides of bovine serum albumin within 15-20 min with peak widths at half height between 4 and 10 s. Neither a significant change in retentivity nor efficiency of the monolithic column was observed during 17-day operation at pH 10.6 and 50 degrees C. Upon separation by RP-HPIPC at high-pH, peptide detectabilities in full-scan negative-ion electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (negESI-MS) were about two to three times lower as compared to RP-HPIPC at low-pH with posESI-MS detection. Tandem mass spectra obtained by fragmentation of deprotonated peptide ions in negative ion mode yielded interpretable sequence information only in a few cases of relatively short peptides. However, in order to obtain sequence information for peptides separated with alkaline mobile phases, tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) could be performed in positive ion mode. The chromatographic selectivities were significantly different in separations performed with acidic and alkaline eluents, which facilitated the fractionation of a complex peptide mixture obtained by the tryptic digestion of 10 proteins utilizing off-line, two-dimensional RP-HPIPC at high pH x RP-HPIPC at low pH and subsequent on-line identification by posESI-MS/MS. 相似文献

Monolithic capillary columns were prepared by copolymerization of styrene and divinylbenzene inside a 200 microm i.d. fused silica capillary using a mixture of tetrahydrofuran and decanol as porogen. Important chromatographic features of the synthesized columns were characterized and critically compared to the properties of columns packed with micropellicular, octadecylated poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) (PS-DVB-C18) particles. The permeability of a 60 mm long monolithic column was slightly higher than that of an equally dimensioned column packed with PS-DVB-C18 beads and was invariant up to at least 250 bar column inlet pressure, indicating the high-pressure stability of the monolithic columns. Interestingly, monolithic columns showed a 3.6 times better separation efficiency for oligonucleotides than granular columns. To study differences of the molecular diffusion processes between granular and monolithic columns, Van Deemter plots were measured. Due to the favorable pore structure of monolithic columns all kind of diffusional band broadening was reduced two to five times. Using inverse size-exclusion chromatography a total porosity of 70% was determined, which consisted of internodule porosity (20%) and internal porosity (50%). The observed fast mass transfer and the resulting high separation efficiency suggested that the surface of the monolithic stationary phase is rather rough and does not feature real pores accessible to macromolecular analytes such as polypeptides or oligonucleotides. The maximum analytical loading capacity of monolithic columns for oligonucleotides was found to be in the region of 500 fmol, which compared well to the loading capacity of the granular columns. Batch-to-batch reproducibility proved to be better with granular stationary phases compared to monolithic stationary phase, in which each column bed is the result of a unique column preparation process. 相似文献

The aim of this paper was to investigate the properties of a new column, Source 5RPC, for the separation of peptides at pH 2, 4.5, 7, 9 and 12 and to compare this product with similar polymer-based products available on the market. All columns were prepacked with 5 microm polystyrene-divinylbenzene polymer bead matrices and had dimensions of 150x4.6 mm I.D. Separations of angiotensin peptides were achieved on these columns using different equilibration solvents in the pH range 2-12 and elution with acetonitrile gradients. The separation of the peptide mixture obtained on Source 5RPC column was compared with that of two other commercially available polymer-based matrices. Method scouting and optimisation were carried out using the novel chromatography system, AKTA purifier. 相似文献

The preparation of monolithic poly(butyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) capillary columns using photoinitiated in situ polymerization within 200 microm i.d. capillaries and their application for microHPLC separations of proteins have been studied. The low resistance to flow characteristic of monolithic columns, enabled the use of very high flow rates of up to 100 microL/min representing a flow velocity of 87 mm/s. Very good separations of a model protein mixture consisting of ribonuclease A, cytochrome c, myoglobin, and ovalbumin was achieved in less than 40 s using a very simple single step gradient of the mobile phase. Interestingly, no effect of the pore size on the separations of proteins was observed for these monolithic columns within the size range of 0.66-2.2 microm. The monolithic microHPLC columns are found very robust and no changes in the long term separation performance and back pressure were observed. 相似文献

High efficiency and highly retentive monolithic silica capillary columns were obtained by polymerization of octadecyl methacrylate using alpha,alpha'-azobis-isobutyronitrile (AIBN) as a free radical initiator. Hybrid type monolithic silica columns (25 cm total length x 200 microm I.D.) prepared from a mixture of tetramethoxysilane and methyltrimethoxysilane were used as a support. The effects of the monomer and the radical initiator concentrations in the reaction mixture were examined. The performance of the columns was tested in terms of column efficiency and retention behavior by using alkylbenzenes and a few other compounds as solutes and compared with that of hybrid monolithic silica columns modified with octadecylsilyl-(N,N-diethylamino)silane (ODS-DEA). Highly retentive monolithic silica columns were obtained by polymerization at high monomer concentrations. Although a decrease in column efficiency was observed with the increase in the monomer concentration in a feed mixture, an improvement in efficiency was achieved (a plate height value lower than 10 microm) by increasing an initiator concentration without significant variations in column retention properties. Results obtained by polymerization using other monomers are also presented to demonstrate the applicability of the preparation method. 相似文献

Monolithic silica capillary columns for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) were prepared by on-column polymerization of acrylic acid on monolithic silica in a fused silica capillary modified with anchor groups. The products maintained the high permeability (K=5 x 10(-14)m(2)) and provided a plate height (H) of less than 10 microm at optimum linear velocity (u) and H below 20 microm at u=6mm/s for polar solutes including nucleosides and carbohydrates. The HILIC mode monolithic silica capillary column was able to produce 10000 theoretical plates (N) with column dead time (t(0)) of 20s at a pressure drop of 20 MPa or lower. The total performance was much higher than conventional particle-packed HILIC columns currently available. The gradient separations of peptides by a capillary LC-electrospray mass spectrometry system resulted in very different retention selectivity between reversed-phase mode separations and the HILIC mode separations with a peak capacity of ca. 100 in a 10 min gradient time in either mode. The high performance observed with the monolithic silica capillary column modified with poly(acrylic acid) suggests that the HILIC mode can be an alternative to the reversed-phase mode for a wide range of compounds, especially for those of high polarity in isocratic as well as gradient elution. 相似文献

In this work, monolithic silica columns with the C4, C8, and C18 chemistry and having various macropore diameters and two different mesopore diameters are studied to access the differences in the column efficiency under isocratic elution conditions and the resolution of selected peptide pairs under reversed-phase gradient elution conditions for the separation of peptides and proteins. The columns with the pore structural characteristics that provided the most efficient separations are then employed to optimize the conditions of a gradient separation of a model mixture of peptides and proteins based on surface chemistry, gradient time, volumetric flow rate, and acetonitrile concentration. Both the mesopore and macropore diameters of the monolithic column are decisive for the column efficiency. As the diameter of the through-pores decreases, the column efficiency increases. The large set of mesopores studied with a nominal diameter of approximately 25 nm provided the most efficient column performance. The efficiency of the monolithic silica columns increase with decreasing n-alkyl chain length in the sequence of C18相似文献

The following particulate and monolithic silica columns were implemented in a fully automated and flexible multidimensional LC/MS system with integrated sample clean-up, to perform the analysis of endogeneous peptides from filtered urine and plasma samples: restricted access sulphonic acid strong cation-exchanger (RAM-SCX) for sample clean-up, RP 18 Chromolith guard columns as trap columns and 100 microm I.D. monolithic RP 18 fused silica capillary columns as last LC dimension. The results show sufficient overall system reproducibility and repeatability. Implementation of monolithic silica columns added an additional flexibility with respect to flow rate variation and adjustment due to the low column back pressures. Also, monolithic columns showed a lower clogging rate in long-term usage for biological samples as compared to particulate columns. The applied system set-up was tested to be useful for the routine peptide screening in search of disease biomarkers. 相似文献

Fiber-packed capillary columns have been evaluated in chromatographic performance in capillary electrochromatography (CEC). The change of electroosmotic flow (EOF) velocity and selectivity using different kinds of fiber materials was examined. Although the EOF velocity among the different fiber packed columns was almost the same, retention of parabens was larger on the Kevlar-packed column than on the Zylon-packed one, and was larger on the as-span-type fiber-packed column than on the high-modulus-type packed one. Using 200 microm ID x 5 cm Kevlar packed column combined with a 100 microm ID x 20 cm precolumn capillary and a 530 microm ID x 45 cm postcolumn capillary, the separation of three parabens within 30 s was achieved. Other compounds were also separated in a few minutes by the fiber-packed CEC method. 相似文献

The gain in separation efficiency for protein digests using long monolithic columns has been evaluated for a LC‐MS system with capillary monolithic columns of different lengths (150 and 750 mm). A mixture of BSA, α‐casein and β‐casein tryptic digests was used as a test sample. Peak capacity and productivity (peak capacity per unit time) were determined from base peak chromatograms and MS/MS data were used for protein identification by MASCOT database searching. Peak capacity and protein identification scores were higher for the long column. Analyses with similar gradient slope for the two columns produced ratios of the peak capacities that were slightly higher than the expected value of the square root of the column length ratio. Peak capacity ratios varied from 2.7 to 4.0 for four different gradient slopes, while protein identification scores were 2–4 times higher for the long column. Similar values were obtained for the productivity of both columns and the highest productivity was obtained at gradient times of 45 and 75 min for the short and long column, respectively. The use of long monolithic columns improves peptide separation and increases reliability of protein identification for complex digests, especially if longer gradients are chosen. 相似文献
