The retention behaviour of conjugated bile acids in reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography.

The retention behaviour of conjugated bile acids has been studied in a reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) system by using the mixture of methanol and aqueous phosphate buffer as the mobile phase. The retentions of the conjugates in RP-HPLC have been found to be mainly controlled by the glycine and taurine groups. The selectivity between five different glycine and taurine conjugated bile acids is a constant in RP-HPLC. This selectivity has been used for peak identification in the practical separation of conjugated bile acids.     

Anomalous properties of flavonoids in reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography

It is shown through reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography that a characteristic feature of such abundant natural flavonoids as flavon-3-ols is an anomalously strong antibate dependence of their retention indices (RI) on the organic solvent concentration (C) in the eluent, dRI/dC < 0. In order to interpret this anomaly, the specific optical rotation values [α]_D²⁰ of natural (+)-(2R,3R)-dihydroquercetin in different solvents are compared, confirming the reverse formation of hydrated flavonoids in aqueous solutions.     

Chromatographic performance of deuterated solvents in reversed phase micro high performance liquid chromatography

The chromatographic performance of the deuterated solvents, CD₃OD and D₂O, has been investigated in reversed-phase micro high performance liquid chromatography. The chromatographic performance of CD₃OD is only slightly superior to that of CH₃OH. However, the performance of D₂ is significantly superior to that of H₂O, separation of aromatics being improved by about 30%. D₂ is a particularly powerful solvent for the separation iof deuterated and non-deuterated compounds.     

Investigation of the low temperature effect in reversed phase micro high performance liquid chromatography

The low temperature effect has been investigated in reversed phase micro high performance liquid chromatography with various aqueous mobile phase systems by an approach based on enthalpy-entropy compensation. The compensation temperatures, Tc , were determined for these systems, and the results show that the retention mechanism in a lower temperature column is similar to that in a normal temperature column in the reversed phase mode at mobile phase water contents above 9.8%. At lower water contents, the separation mechanism is different from that in the reversed phase mode, but otherwise very similar to that in the normal phase mode.

A validated method for analysis of chromium picolinate in nutraceuticals by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography

A validated high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the determination of chromium picolinate in pharmaceutical dosage forms. The analysis was performed at room temperature using a reversed-phase Supelcosil LC-18 (250 x 4.6 mm, 5 microm) column. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile:water (40:60 v/v) at a fl ow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The UV-detector was set at 264 nm. The developed method showed a good linear relationship in the concentration range from 0.125 to 12.5 microg/mL with a correlation coefficient from 0.999. The limit of detection and limit of quanti fi cation were 0.091 and 0.181 microg/mL, respectively.     

Determination of lipoperoxide in animal tissue by ion-pair reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography

An ion-pair reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the quantitative determination of lipoperoxide (as malondialdehyde, MDA) in animal tissue using a ODS column and a mobile phase of methanol + phosphate buffer (53:47 v/v, pH 6.5). Tetrabutylammonium bromide was used as an ion-pair reagent and the detection wavelength was set at 532 nm. The method was sensitive, accurate and simple. A linear relationship was obtained between the peak height and the amount of MDA from 50 nmol/L to 1200 nmol/L and the lower limit of detection of MDA was 15 nmol/L (signal-to-noise ratio greater than 2), and the coefficient of variation at the 200 nmol/L level was 3.7% (n = 7). The results correlated well with those from the 2-thiobarbituric acid colorimetric method. The method has been used in the pathogenic studies of cerebral ischemia and acute renal failure for the determination of trace lipoperoxide.     

Determination of tryptophan oxidation of monoclonal antibody by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography

A pre-peak was separated from the main peak of a monoclonal antibody by size exclusion HPLC (SE-HPLC) analysis using two TSK-Gel G3000SWXL columns connected in series. When compared with molecular weight markers, the product peak elutes as a molecule with apparent molecular weight of 44 kDa, indicating that separation is not strictly on the basis of size exclusion and that longer retention of the antibody by this column probably results from interaction between the stationary phase and the protein molecules during separation. The pre-peak has been characterized as due to the oxidation of one of tryptophan residues on the heavy chains of this monoclonal antibody. Because the SE-HPLC method using tandem TSK-Gel G3000SWXL columns showed unsatisfactory reproducibility amongst column lots, a more reliable and accurate reversed phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) method was developed to detect the tryptophan oxidation on the heavy chains of the monoclonal antibody. The level of tryptophan oxidation determined by the reversed phase method was correlated with the amount of tryptophan oxidation observed as a pre-peak by SE-HPLC. The RP-HPLC method was qualified for precision, accuracy, linearity of the main peak and the minor peak (oxidized isoforms of the heavy chain), detection limit and quantitation limit.

Process scale high performance liquid chromatography part IV—Examples of reversed phase separations

Summary The flexibility of process scale high performance liquid chromatography is demonstrated by three examples of reversed-phase separations (a) a standard purification (b) isolation of trace compounds, and (c) recovery from crystallisation mother liquors. It was shown that a material, thought to be acceptably pure, contained a toxic impurity, and a remaining impurity, a previously unseen component of potential therapeutic interest. Favourable cost data were indicated for example (3).

The hydrophilic interaction like properties of some reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography columns in the analysis of basic compounds

The hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) like properties of an ACE cyano (CN) HPLC column was studied for the separation of some basic compounds. Good separation of a test mix of basic compounds was obtained with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile/water (95:5) containing 3.25 mM ammonium acetate. The retention times of the basic compounds decreased with increased ionic strength or with increased water content in the mobile phase. When Trishydroxymethyl aminomethane (Tris) (pK(a) 8.0), which is a weaker amine than ammonia (pK(a) 9.3), was used as an additive in the mobile phase retention of the basic compounds was increased. The ACE CN column gave excellent peak shapes for all the basic compounds. The utility of the column for impurity profiling of two basic drugs was tested and some impurities in oxprenolol were characterised by interfacing with Fourier transform mass spectrometry. It was also observed that ACE butyl and ACE phenyl columns retained basic compounds when the columns were eluted with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile/water (95:5) containing 3.25 mM ammonium acetate.     

The effect of chain length of bonded organic phases in reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography

Summary Bonded hydrocarbon phases have been prepared by the reaction of organotrichlorosilanes with silica (Lichrosorb Si-100, 10 m, Merck) using conditions for maximum coverage. Alkyl phases, CH₃ (CH₂)_n-With n=7, 10, 12, 14, 17 and 20 and arylakyl phases, Ph (CH₂)_n—with n=0,2,4,6 were investigated. In reverse phase chromatography using water/methanol phases a linear relationship was between the capacity ratios k and the amount of coverage, independent of chain length. The selectivity, however, depends on the chain length of the bonded phase and molecular structure of the solute, whereas for halogenated benzene derivatives the selectivity is constant, and changing the mobile phase composition shows only a minor effect. The selectivity of 4,4-dibromodiphenyl in relation to the benzene derivatives is strongly influenced by the chain length and solvent composition. The utilization of chemically bonded organic long chain phases with maximum coverage makes it possible to reduce the water content in the water/methanol phase increasing the efficiency and loading capacity. The extent of maximum coverage was slightly dependent on the chain length and showed only a 10% decrease from n-octyl-to heneicosyl phase. Treatment of the bonded organic phase with TMCS was not effective with long chain materials, but further reaction occurred with bonded phenyl phase, which could be shown by IR-analysis.     

Simultaneous separation of nonionic surfactants and polyethylene glycols by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography

Summary The simultaneous separation of polyethylene glycol and its derivatives such as the lauryl alcohol and lauric acid ethoxylate oligomers was carried out by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography. Branched fluorinated silica gel columns combined with evaporative light scattering detection were used for the characterization of nonionic surfactants. Lauryl alcohol ethoxylate oligomers were separated at 10°C with an isocratic eluent according to ethoxylate number and the retention time of the oligomers decreases with increasing ethoxylate number. The Van’t Hoff plots of retention factor of lauryl alcohol ethoxylate gave a complex cure, which is anomalous behavior for reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography. The anomalous Van’t Hoff plots were explained by a partial conformational change from polar to less polar conformers with increasing temperature. The most significant features for the analysis of the lauryl alcohol ethoxylate were the use of acetonitrile as mobile phase and operating temperature. The polyethylene glycol was separated according to ethoxylate number and the retention time of oligomers increased with increasing ethoxylate number. The Van’t Hoff plots of retention factor of polyethylene glycol had negative slopes. It was presumed that the polar conformation of the ethylene oxide chain decreased with increasing temperature. The lauryl alcohol ethoxylate and polyethylene glycol were separated simultaneously in gradient elution as a result of the conformational change of the ethylene oxide chain. As a practical example, lauric acid ethoxylate simultaneously separated into free polyethylene glycol, ethoxylate monolaurate and ethoxylate dilaurate in gradient elution.     

Chemical stability of reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography silica under sodium hydroxide regeneration conditions

Chromatographic sorbents used within the purification of peptide or protein based active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are commonly subjected to caustic regeneration procedures, so-called CIP treatments. While polymeric materials remain unaffected by this treatment, silica-based sorbents are at an intrinsic risk of dissolution under high pH conditions, such as, e.g. 0.1M NaOH. It is common misconception that silica-based materials simply cannot be subjected to alkaline conditions above pH 9. Moreover, most studies covering the chemical stability of HPLC sorbents above pH 9 have been limited to the chromatographic conditions used for the separations themselves. Such studies have used buffered mobile phases up to pH 11 or 12. Very little focus has been put on the stability of the stationary phases when subjected to shorter but harsher pH conditions required for regeneration purposes, such as 0.1M NaOH (pH 13). Knowledge about the amount of so-called leachables, degradation products originating from the stationary phase, is of growing importance for the registration of pharmaceuticals for human use and is addressed in this work. This study compares the chemical stability of different commercially available reversed phase silica materials (C18) that are used in industrial scale preparative HPLC. The silica materials were subjected to NaOH regeneration conditions and it is shown that some materials are able to withstand 0.1M NaOH conditions without significant harm. It is demonstrated that contaminants present in the effluent in the range of 10-50 microg/mL can lead to significant contamination of API product fraction.

Separation ofAstragalus saponins by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography and evaporative light scattering detection

Summary A new HPLC method permitted the separation of 13 triterpene lycosides isolated from differentAstragalus species within 40 min. A water/acetonitrile gradient was used as eluent and 5 μm RP-18 material as stationary phase. By using an evaporative light scattering (ELS) detector, the main saponins ofA. membranaceus could be detected at levels as low as 20.0 μg·mL⁻¹. This method facilitated distinction of differentAstragalus species as well as the analyses of market products containingA. membranaceus. The results showed variations from 0.019 to 0.184% in the total saponin content of the market products.
