Comparison between monolithic conventional size, microbore and capillary poly(p-methylstyrene-co-1,2-bis(p-vinylphenyl)ethane) high-performance liquid chromatography columns Synthesis, application, long-term stability and reproducibility

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.     

Influence of the polymerisation time on the porous and chromatographic properties of monolithic poly(1,2-bis(p-vinylphenyl))ethane capillary columns

In order to elucidate the effect of the polymerisation time on the morphology of styrene based monolithic support materials, continuous poly(1,2-bis(p-vinylphenyl))ethane (BVPE) rods were synthesised in 1.0 ml glass vials by thermally initiated free radical polymerisations of BVPE in the presence of porogens (toluene, decanol) and a,a′-azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator at 65 °C for different polymerisation times (60, 90, 150, 300 and 600 min). Porosity parameters like pore-size-distribution and total porosity were investigated by mercury intrusion porosimetry, while the specific surface area of the BVPE monolithic supports was determined by N₂-adsorption (BET) measurements. An untypical bimodal pore-size-distribution comprising a high fraction of both mesopores (2–50 nm) and macropores (mainly flow-channels in the micrometer range) was observed as a result of the stepwise decrease of the polymerisation time. In consequence of the significant changes of the pore-size-profile, shortening the polymerisation time also resulted in enhanced total porosity due to enlarged flow-channel diameters and increased surface area according to the presence of a considerable amount of mesopores. Results upon the porosity profile of the support are further confirmed by SEM images of monoliths polymerised for different time periods. Since mesoporosity and high surface area of the chromatographic support material play key roles in the interaction and thus retention of low-molecular-weight compounds, polymerisation time should also affect the chromatographic properties and applicability of these polymers. To study the influence of the polymerisation time towards the separation efficiency of small molecules on BVPE capillary columns (200 μm I.D., 8 cm), a mixture of homologous alkylbenzenes was chosen for column evaluation. In accordance with the observations of the porous properties of BVPE stationary phases, the rapid and high resolution separation of a range of low-molecular-weight compounds on monolithic BVPE supports were successfully realised. The methodical reduction of the polymerisation time has been demonstrated to be a simple and effective tool to tailor the porous properties of organic monoliths to provide novel polymer-based stationary phases with porous properties adequate for the rapid and high resolution chromatography of small organic molecules.     

Highly efficient monolithic silica capillary columns modified with poly(acrylic acid) for hydrophilic interaction chromatography

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.     

Preparation and evaluation of monolithic poly(N-vinylcarbazole-co-1,4-divinylbenzene) capillary columns for the separation of small molecules

Short-term polymerization or the so-called low-conversion polymerization was applied for the preparation of N-vinylcarbazole (NVC) and 1,4-divinylbenzene (DVB) monolithic capillary columns. The synthesis was carried out by thermally initiated free radical copolymerization under the influence of inert micro- (toluene) and macroporogen (1-decanol) and α,α′-azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as radical initiator. The morphological and porous properties were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen adsorption, and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). The copolymerization process was studied by monomer conversion measurements. This approach led to increased porosity and specific surface area. A specific surface area above 400 m²/g of the monolith and a distinct bimodal pore size distribution were obtained. The chromatographic performance was determined in terms of theoretical plate heights and number of theoretical plates. The lowest plate height value was found to be 3.9 μm (corresponding to ≈256,000 plates per meter) applying methylparaben utilizing an 80 mm?×?0.2 mm i.d. monolithic capillary. The developed NVC/DVB monolithic supports showed high separation efficiency towards small molecules, which was exemplified applying reversed-phase (RP) separation of alkylbenzenes, beta-blockers, flavanoids, parabens, and phenones. The loading capacity was analyzed for isocratic separation of seven alkylbenzenes and was found to be up to 77 ng total mass of alkylbenzenes. Furthermore, a long-term stability test of 1,000 consecutive runs was performed and resulted in a maximum variance of 0.97, 0.85, and 0.16 % RSD for resolution, peak width at half height, and retention times, respectively. The material was proven to have a high permeability of 1.11E?14 m², applying water as a mobile phase.     

Microfluidic HPLC‐Chip devices with integral channels containing methylstyrenic‐based monolithic media

Polyimide HPLC‐Chip devices containing poly(methylstyrene‐bis‐p‐vinylphenyl)ethane (MS/BVPE) stationary phase within the device channels and with wall attachment were prepared by thermally initiated free radical polymerization. The microfluidic devices were coupled to both UV and MS detectors. The potential of the MS/BVPE monolith as an alternative separation media within chip devices was investigated by side‐by‐side comparisons to particulate media within commercial devices. The chromatographic behavior of this stationary phase was comparable to particulate media for separations of proteins as the average peak width at half‐height was equal (6.2 s) for a separation within 8 min under gradient elution conditions. The ability to control the porosity characteristics of the MS/BVPE monolith with changes in polymerization time also extended its utility into small analyte (< 500 Da) applications, although more optimization is needed to match conventional RP media for these applications. The good mechanical stability of the MS/BVPE monolith within the microdevices enabled excellent run‐to‐run repeatability (%RSD retention time (? 0.16) and chip‐to‐chip reproducibility (%RSD retention time (1.4). The use of this material within enrichment channels also shows its potential value in more complex work flows.     

Study of a monolithic silica capillary column coated with poly(octadecyl methacrylate) for the reversed-phase liquid chromatographic separation of some polar and non-polar compounds

The performance of a monolithic silica capillary column coated with poly(octadecyl methacrylate) (ODM column) for the reversed-phase liquid chromatographic separation of some polar and non-polar compounds was studied, and the results were compared to those obtained by using a monolithic silica capillary column modified with octadecylsilyl-(N,N-diethylamino)silane (ODS column). Benzene and naphthalene derivatives, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), steroids, alkyl phthalates, and tocopherol homologues were used as test samples. In general, compounds with aromatic character, rigid and planar structures, and lower length-to-breadth ratios (more compacted structures) seem to have more preference for the polymer coated stationary phase (ODM). Compounds with acidic character have also a higher retention on ODM columns because of the presence of ester groups in the stationary phase. The polymer coated column allowed the separation of some PAHs, alkyl phthalates, steroids, and of beta- and gamma-tocopherol isomers which cannot be separated under the same conditions on ODS columns, while keeping similar column efficiency. These results allowed to suggest ODM columns as a good alternative to conventional ODS columns for reversed-phase liquid chromatography.     

Novel monolithic poly(p-methylstyrene-co-bis(p-vinylbenzyl)dimethylsilane) capillary columns for biopolymer separation

Hydrophobic organo-silane based monolithic capillary columns were prepared by thermally initiated free radical polymerisation within the confines of 200 microm i.d. fused silica capillaries. A novel crosslinker, namely bis(p-vinylbenzyl)dimethylsilane (BVBDMS), was copolymerised with p-methylstyrene (MS) in the presence of 2-propanol and toluene, using alpha,alpha'-azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator. Monolithic capillary columns, differing in the total monomer, microporogen content and microporogen nature were fabricated and the chromatographic efficiency of each monolith, regarding the separation of proteins, peptides and oligonucleotides, was evaluated and compared. Changes in monolith morphology were monitored by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Porosity and specific surface areas of the supports were studied by means of mercury intrusion porosimetry and BET measurements, respectively. Pressure drop vs. flow rate measurements proved the prepared poly(p-methylstyrene-co-bis(p-vinylbenzyl)dimethylsilane) (MS/BVBDMS) monoliths to be mechanically stable and swelling propensity (SP) factors of 0.78-1.10 indicate high crosslinking homogeneity.     

Separation, detection, and identification of peptides by ion-pair reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry at high and low pH

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.

Monolithic poly[(trimethylsilyl-4-methylstyrene)-co- bis(4-vinylbenzyl)dimethylsilane] stationary phases for the fast separation of proteins and oligonucleotides

In this paper the synthesis, optimisation and application of a silane based monolithic copolymer for the rapid separation of proteins and oligonucleotides is described. The monolith was prepared by thermal initiated in situ copolymerisation of trimethylsilyl-4-methylstyrene (TMSiMS) and bis(4-vinylbenzyl)dimethylsilane (BVBDMSi) in a silanised 200 microm I.D. fused silica column. Different ratios of monomer and crosslinker, as well as different ratios of micro- (toluene) and macro-porogen (2-propanol) were used for optimising the physical properties of the stationary phase regarding separation efficiency. The prepared monolithic stationary phases were characterised by measurement of permeability with different solvents, determination of pore size distribution by mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). Morphology was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Applying optimised conditions, a mixture comprised of five standard proteins ribunuclease A, cytochrome c, alpha-lactalbumine, myoglobine and ovalbumine was separated within 1 min by ion-pair reversed-phase liquid chromatography (IP-RPLC) obtaining half-height peak widths between 1.8 and 2.4 s. Baseline separation of oligonucleotides d(pT)(12-18) was achieved within 1.8 min obtaining half-height peak widths between 3.6 and 5.4 s. The results demonstrate the high potential of this stationary phase for fast separation of high-molecular weight biomolecules such as oligonucleotides and proteins.

Automation of nanoflow liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for proteome and peptide profiling analysis by using a monolithic analytical capillary column

An automated nano-LC-MS/MS platform without trap column was established, which only used a 20 cm lauryl methacrylate-ethylene dimethacrylate (LMA-EDMA) monolithic capillary column to allow preconcentration and separation of peptides. The monolithic column had the advantages of good permeability and low backpressure resulting in higher flow rates for capillary columns. Tryptic digests of bovine albumin and yeast protein extract were tested using the monolithic column system. High proteomic coverage using this approach were demonstrated in this study. Furthermore, peptide samples extracted from mouse liver were separated by using the monolithic column system combined with size-exclusion chromatography prefractionation. This monolithic column system might be a promising alternative for the automated system previously using a trap column for routine proteome and peptide profiling analysis.

Isoform separation of a multi-acetylated protein using capillary polystyrene-divinylbenzene monolithic columns

Capillary polystyrene-divinylbenzene (PS-DVB) monolithic columns were used to separate differentially acetylated intact IM9 protein isoforms. Compared to the unmodified form, the hydrophobic shift for intact acetylated isoforms was significant under standard reversed-phase conditions (32.5-45% acetonitrile in 10 min). The high chromatographic resolution of the PS-DVB monolithic columns resulted in peak widths at half height of 4-5s. This allowed us to nearly completely resolve a number of peaks greater than the number of possible acetylation sites. This observation suggested that not only the number, but also the location of the acetylations on the protein had a significant effect on the retention. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight MS and MS/MS were used to confirm the chromatographic separation of isoforms. It was found that the acetylations site, especially on the N-terminus, has an effect on the retention on the PS-DVB column.     

Characterization of some physical and chromatographic properties of monolithic poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) columns

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.     

The synthesis of chloropropyl-functionalized silica hybrid monolithic column with modification of N,N-dimethyl-N-dodecylamine for capillary electrochromatography separation

A chloropropyl-functionalized silica (CP-silica) hybrid monolithic column was synthesized within the confines of a capillary via the sol–gel process using tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) and (3-chloropropyl)-trimethoxysilane (CPTMS) as the precursors. The resulting CP-silica hybrid monolith inside the capillary showed homogeneous macroporous morphology and was well attached to the inner wall of the capillary. The obtained CP-silica hybrid monolithic capillary column demonstrated the inherent hydrophobic property and could be applied as a reversed-phase stationary phase in CEC directly. Due to the great chemical reactivity of the incorporated chloro groups on the hybrid silica monolithic matrix, the chloropropyl moieties on the surface of the hybrid silica monolith matrix could be conveniently further modified by a tertiary amine of N,N-dimethyl-N-dodecylamine (DMDA) via the nucleophilic substitution reaction at 70 °C to introduce a dodecyl groups (C12) onto the CP-silica hybrid monolithic matrix. The resulting C12-silica hybrid monolithic column not only demonstrated the significantly enhanced hydrophobic property in the separation of alkylbenzenes in reversed-phase capillary electrochromatography (RP-CEC), but also the strong electroosmotic flow (EOF) in a wide pH range. Five alkylbenzenes could be baseline separated in 3 min with column efficiency ranging from 189 700 to 221 000 N/m with a 70% ACN running buffer in CEC.     

Surfactant-bound monolithic columns for separation of proteins in capillary high performance liquid chromatography

A surfactant-bound monolithic stationary phase based on the co-polymerization of 11-acrylamino-undecanoic acid (AAUA) is designed for capillary high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Using D-optimal design, the effect of the polymerization mixture (concentrations of monomer, crosslinker and porogens) on the chromatographic performance (resolution and analysis time) of the AAUA–EDMA monolithic column was evaluated. The polymerization mixture was optimized using three proteins as model test solutes. The D-optimal design indicates a strong dependence of chromatographic parameters on the concentration of porogens (1,4-butanediol and water) in the polymerization mixture. Optimized solutions for fast separation and high resolution separation, respectively, were obtained using the proposed multivariate optimization. Differences less than 6.8% between the predicted and the experimental values in terms of resolution and retention time indeed confirmed that the proposed approach is practical. Using the optimized column, fast separation of proteins could be obtained in 2.5 min, and a tryptic digest of myoglobin was successfully separated on the high resolution column. The physical properties (i.e., morphology, porosity and permeability) of the optimized monolithic column were thoroughly investigated. It appears that this surfactant-bound monolith may have a great potential as a new generation of capillary HPLC stationary phase.     

Development of a new C14 monolithic silica column containing embedded polar groups for pressurized capillary electrochromatography

Monolithic columns have been prepared with a novel bonded silica stationary phase, tetradecylamine bonded silica (TDAS), and used in pressurized capillary electrochromatography (pCEC). The monolithic silica column matrix was prepared by a sol-gel process and then chemically modified with the spacer (3-glycidoxypropyl)trimethoxysilane and tetradecylamine. The introduced embedded polar amine groups dominated the charge on the surface of the monolithic stationary phase and generated an EOF from cathode to anode under acidic conditions. The tetradecyl hydrophobic chains in TDAS provide chromatographic interactions. The chromatographic characteristics of the prepared monolithic column were studied. Some aromatic compounds including alkylbenzenes, aromatic hydrocarbons, phenols, and anilines were successfully separated on the TDAS monolithic column in pCEC mode. As expected, the TDAS monolithic stationary phases exhibit typical reversed-phase electrochromatographic behavior toward neutral solutes due to the introduced tetradecyl groups. Hydrophobic as well as electrophoretic migration processes within the monoliths were observed in the separation of basic anilines. Symmetrical peaks can be obtained for anilines because the embedded polar amine groups on the surface can effectively shield the adsorption of positively charged analytes onto the stationary phase.     

Novel monolithic poly(phenyl acrylate-co-1,4-phenylene diacrylate) capillary columns for biopolymer chromatography

Monolithic capillary columns were prepared by thermally initiated free radical polymerisation of phenyl acrylate (PA) and 1,4-phenylene diacrylate (PDA) in the confines of 200 microm I.D. fused silica capillaries. Polymerisation was performed in the presence of 2-propanol and tetrahydrofuran (THF) as inert diluents (porogens), using alpha,alpha'-azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator. Morphology and porosity of the resulting monoliths were comprehensively studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mercury intrusion porosimetry and inverse size-exclusion chromatography (ISEC). The novel poly(phenyl acrylate-co-1,4-phenylene diacrylate) (PA/PDA) monoliths showed high mechanical stability and were successfully applied to the separation of proteins and oligodeoxynucleotides, employing reversed-phase (RP) and ion-pair reversed-phase (IP-RP) conditions, respectively. Maximum loading capacities for cytochrome c and d(pT)(16) were evaluated and found to be in the region of 200 fmol. Batch-to-batch reproducibility was determined for three independently prepared PA/PDA monolithic capillary columns. Relative standard deviations (RSDs) of retention time (t(R)) of 0.7-1.6% for proteins and 0.2-2.5% for d(pT)(12-18) proved high reproducibility of the PA/PDA supports.
