研究了非抑制型阳离子交换色谱中色谱柱温度(25~50℃)对碱金属离子(Li+、Na+、K+、Rb+)和碱土金属离子(Mg2+、Ca2+、Sr2+)以及NH4+保留的影响。在Shim-pack IC-C1磺酸型阳离子交换柱上,以硝酸为流动相分离碱金属离子,以乙二胺或乙二胺-草酸(柠檬酸)为流动相分离碱土金属离子,随着色谱柱温度的升高,碱金属和碱土金属离子的保留时间均增长,其范特霍夫曲线具有良好的线性关系,斜率为负值,表明在此条件下碱金属和碱土金属离子的保留为吸热过程。在Shim-pack IC-SC1羧酸型阳离子交换柱上,以硫酸为流动相同时分离碱金属和碱土金属离子,随着色谱柱温度的升高,Mg2+、Ca2+的保留时间增长,而K+、Rb+的保留时间缩短,Li+、Na+、NH4+的保留时间基本不变。在此条件下,Mg2+、Ca2+、K+和Rb+的范特霍夫曲线具有良好的线性关系,其中Mg2+和Ca2+的曲线斜率为负值,K+和Rb+的曲线斜率为正值,表明Mg2+和Ca2+的保留表现为吸热过程,K+和Rb+的保留表现为放热过程。研究表明在不同固定相和流动相条件下,色谱柱温度对碱金属和碱土金属离子保留行为的影响不同。     

多齿配体-硅胶色谱介质的制备与评价

以新型环保多齿螯合剂——亚氨基二琥珀酸(IDS)为配体,在优化条件下,合成了IDS-Silica固定相。用电位滴定法测定了固定相上IDS的键合量。考察了IDS-Silica柱的色谱特性以及金属螯合特性。使用制备柱成功地分离了标准蛋白质混合物,该制备柱展现出了典型的阳离子交换特性。用电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱法考察了金属离子在IDS-Silica固定相上的键合特性。结果表明,金属离子在IDS-Silica固定相上键合量的变化规律与它们同该固定相螯合的强弱顺序一致。通过比较金属Cu~(2+)在4种不同氨羧类配体硅胶柱上的键合量,发现IDS对金属离子具有强的螯合能力。IDS对金属离子的强螯合特性为其今后作为固定金属亲和色谱填料奠定了基础,为缓解亲和柱在使用过程中固定金属离子的流失提供了一种有效的解决方法。

金属螯合亲和色谱中固定金属与蛋白质的作用

在不同PHNaCl的磷酸缓冲体系，比较了牛血清蛋白（BSA）、核糖核酸酶（RNase)、细色素C（Cyt-C)和溶菌酶（Lys)在IDA裸柱和一些金属螯合柱上的保留特性，考察了固定金属对蛋白质保留行为的影响，指出蛋白质在强结合IDA－Cu柱上的保留主要受固定金属和蛋白质间配位作用支配，在弱亲和的IDA－Ni,IDA-Co和IDA－Zn柱上的保留主要受静电作用控制，配位作用为辅，讨论了金属螯合亲和色谱中影响蛋白质和金属配位的主要因素，金属离子的电荷和半径，配位原子对中心离子外层d轨道的影响，以及蛋白质表面配位的组氨酸数目，离解常数和取向，影响金属螯合配体和蛋白质静电作用的主要因素为溶液的PH和蛋白质的等电点pI.     

金属螯合亲和色谱中的疏水作用

通过考察盐溶盐和盐析盐浓度对蛋白质在IDA裸柱和金属螯合柱上保留行为的影响,详细研究了金属螯合色谱中的疏水作用,疏水作用的发生、形成的条件以及不同条件下对蛋白质保留值的贡献。实验结果表明,在高浓度和低浓度的盐溶盐以及低浓度盐析盐中,蛋白质在金属螯合柱上的保留主要受静电和配位作用控制,而疏水作用对蛋白质的保留影响很小。对弱亲和性的金属螯合柱以静电作用为主,其大小可用参数Q表征;对强亲和性的IDA-Cu（Ⅱ）柱以配位作用为主。仅在高浓度的盐析盐中,金属螯合柱才呈现较强的疏水作用,支配蛋白质保留。实验证明,金属螯合色谱中疏水作用主要来自固定相间隔臂中的疏水碳链和盐析盐对蛋白质的增疏作用,利用这种疏水作用有可能改善金属螯合色谱分离的选择性。     

Novel tetrazole-functionalized ion exchanger for weak cation-exchange chromatography of proteins

A new type of weak cation exchanger, tetrazole-functionalized silica, was developed for bioseparation. It was prepared conveniently by modifying silica gel initially with gamma-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, then with 3-hydroxypropionitrile and finally with ammonium-catalyzed (3+2) azide-nitrile cycloaddition, which is an element of click chemistry. The prepared stationary phase was characterized and evaluated for its separation performance, protein retention behavior, loading capacity, protein recovery and chemical stability. The results show that the stationary phase developed has excellent performance for protein separations with high mass recoveries, and has long-term stability. Some remarkable differences were observed between this new exchanger and a carboxylic methyl-functionalized ion exchanger, which is typically used in weak cation-exchange chromatography of proteins. The obtained column was also used for the purification of lysozyme from chicken egg white, and the purity and specific bioactivity of the obtained lysozyme were about 90% and 67 IU/mg, respectively.     

Chromatographic evaluation of reversed-phase/anion-exchange/cation-exchange trimodal stationary phases prepared by electrostatically driven self-assembly process

This work describes chromatographic properties of reversed-phase/cation-exchange/anion-exchange trimodal stationary phases. These stationary phases were based on high-purity porous spherical silica particles coated with nano-polymer beads using an electrostatically driven self-assembly process. The inner-pore area of the material was modified covalently with an organic layer that provided both reversed-phase and anion-exchange properties while the outer surface was coated with nano-sized polymer beads with strong cation-exchange characteristics. This design ensured spatial separation of the anion-exchange and the cation-exchange regions, and allowed reversed-phase, anion-exchange and cation-exchange retention mechanisms to function simultaneously. Chromatographic evaluation of ions and small molecules suggested that retention of ionic analytes was influenced by the ionic strength, pH, and mobile phase organic solvent content, and governed by both ion-exchange and hydrophobic interactions. Meanwhile, neutral analytes were retained by hydrophobic interaction and was mainly affected by mobile phase organic solvent content. Depending on the specific application, selectivity could be optimized by adjusting the anion-exchange/cation-exchange capacity ratio (selectivity), which was achieved experimentally by using porous silica particles with different surface areas.     

Towards multimodal HPLC separations on humic acid-bonded aminopropyl silica: RPLC and LEC behavior

In the present study, metal binding property of humic acid (HA) was successfully adapted to the ligand-exchange concept, and metal-loaded immobilized humic acid was used as a ligand exchanger stationary phase for separation of some nucleosides. Humic-acid bonded aminopropyl silica (EC-HA-APS) was turned into ligand exchanger forms by loading aqueous solutions of Cu²⁺, and Co²⁺ to the column (4.6 × 150; as mm) packed with EC-HA-APS. Metal ion solutions were loaded to the column in a stepwise manner where the concentration of metal ion solution being loaded to the column was increased gradually between 5 and 100 mM. The progress of metal loading process was monitored via the breakthrough curves propagated stepwise. Ligand-exchange chromatography (LEC) studies were performed on an HPLC system, and chromatographic behaviors of the studied nucleosides (i.e. uridine, Urd; thymidine, Tyd; cytidine, Cyd; adenosine, Ado; and guanosine, Guo) were investigated on Cu²⁺ and Co²⁺ loaded forms of the EC-HA-APS (Cu-EC-HA-APS and Co-EC-HA-APS). Effect of mobile phase composition, temperature, and the type of metal ion loaded to the column on the retentive behaviors of the compounds was studied, in detail. The studied solutes exhibited mixed-mode RPLC/LEC behavior on the stationary phase. Metal-loaded column (M-EC-HA-APS) was easily regenerated into its original form, EC-HA-APS, with 98 ± 2% metal recoveries, by using aqueous mixture of EDTA + NH₃ at pH = 7.5. Thus, the stationary phase exhibited a high flexibility between RPLC and LEC modes. This property, also, made it possible to convert the stationary phase into various ligand exchanger forms by loading different metal ions. Hence, capacity and selectivity of the stationary phase towards the studied species was manipulated easily by loading different metal ions to the stationary phase. Baseline separation for the studied species was achieved on Cu-EC-HA-APS and Co-EC-HA-APS and some differentiations were observed in capacity and selectivity, depending on the type of metal loaded. Thus, being as the first endeavor on usability of immobilized HA as a ligand exchanger stationary phase, the present study is believed to be useful to understand multifunctional character of HA-based solid/stationary phases.

Effects of Immobilized Metal Ion on Retention Behaviors of Proteins in Metal Chelate Affinity Chromatography

The chromatographic behaviors of proteins on iminodiacetic acid (IDA) column with and without immobilized metal ion were examined in detail. Comparing the effects of pI, solution pH, and salt concentration on retention of proteins in cation‐exchange chromatography (CEC) and metal chelate affinity chromatography (MCAC), the retention mechanism of proteins was investigated in MCAC. By aid of observing the retention characteristics of proteins on naked IDA and metal chelate columns in high concentration salt‐out salt solution, the hydrophobic interaction in MCAC and the influence of metal ion on it were proved. In terms of the comparison of the thermodynamics of proteins in CEC and MCAC, the thermostability, the conformational change entropy Δ(ΔS⁰) and enthalpy Δ(ΔH⁰), compensation temperature β, the driving force and caloritic effect of proteins in MCAC were discussed. The identity of retention mechanism at protein thermal denaturation in CEC and MCAC was demonstrated by using the compensation relationship between ΔH⁰ and ΔS⁰.     

A weak cation-exchange phase for the separation of biogenic amines by open tubular liquid chromatography

Summary The preparation and performance of a weak cation-exchange stationary phase for Open Tubular Liquid Chromatography (OT-LC) was investigated. The stationary phase was prepared in 5.4 μm I.D. fused silica capillaries byin situ photopolymerization of a mixture of silicon acrylate and acrylic acid. The influence of pH, counter ion concentration and organic modifier concentration of the mobile phase on the retention was studied with catecholamines as test solutes using LIF detection. Other biological amines like amino acids, small peptides and nucleic acid derivatives could be separated on this stationary phase as well. The kinetic performance of the stationary phase was studied with several cations and neutral solutes.     

Chromatographic behaviors of proteins on cation-exchange column

A weak cation-exchanger (XIDACE-WCX) has been synthesized by the indirect method. The chromatographic characteristics of the synthesized packing was studied in detail. The standard protein mixture and lysozyme from egg white were separated with the prepared chromatographic column. The chromatographic thermodynamics of proteins was studied in a wide temperature range. Thermodynamic parameters standard enthalpy change (deltaH0) and standard entropy change (deltaS0) and compensation temperature (beta) at protein denaturation were determined in the chromatographic system. By using obtained deltaS0, the conformational change of proteins was judged in the chromatographic process.The linear relationship between deltaH0 and deltaS0 can be used to identify the identity of the protein retention mechanism in the weak cation-exchange chromatography. The interaction between weak cation-exchanger and metal ions was investigated. Several metal chelate columns were prepared. The effects of introducing metal ion into the naked column on protein retention and the retention mechanism of proteins in the metal chalet affinity chromatography were discussed.

Ion-chromatographic behavior of alkali metal cations and ammonium ion on zirconium-adsorbing silica gel

The preparation and evaluation of zirconium-adsorbing silica gel (Zr-Silica) as an ion-exchange stationary phase in ion chromatography for inorganic anions and cations was carried out. The Zr-Silica was prepared by the reaction of silanol groups on the surface of the silica gel with zirconium butoxide (Zr(OCH2CH2CH2CH3)4) in ethanol. The ion-exchange characteristics of the Zr-Silica were evaluated using 10 mM tartaric acid at pH 2.5 as eluent. The Zr-Silica was found to act as a cation-exchanger under the eluent conditions. The retention behavior of alkali and alkaline earth metal cations was then investigated. The Zr-Silica column was proved to be suitable for the simultaneous separation of alkali metal cations and ammonium ion. Excellent separation of the cations on a 15 cm Zr-Silica column was achieved in 25 min using 10 mM tartaric acid as eluent.     

Covalently bonded polysaccharide-modified stationary phase for per aqueous liquid chromatography and hydrophilic interaction chromatography

The mixed sulfated/methacryloyl polysaccharide derivative was prepared and successfully immobilized onto the surface of porous silica particles by polymerization. Polysaccharide derivative was calculated as 10.33% in the stationary phase prepared. The new stationary phase (PMSP) showed both hydrophilic interaction (HILIC) and per aqueous liquid chromatography (PALC) characteristics. The effects of column temperature, the water content, pH and ion strength of mobile phase on the retention time of test compounds in highly aqueous eluents were investigated to evaluate the PALC features of PMSP. The column efficiency is about 31,000 plates/m for benzoic acid in water/ACN (97/3, v/v) mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Compared with C18 column, the PMSP had shorter retention time for weak polar and non-polar compounds, but also showed stronger retention for strong polar compounds. It indicated that PALC was a suitable mode of chromatography as replacement of HILIC and complementarity of reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC).     

Simultaneous ion chromatographic separation of anions and cations on poly(aspartic acid) functionalized silica

Poly(aspartic acid)-silica (PolyCAT A), originally designed for the cation-exchange chromatography of proteins, is proposed for the simultaneous ion chromatographic separation of inorganic anions and cations. This is possible owing to the zwitterion-exchange properties of this stationary phase, which are attributed to the presence of both protonated aminopropyl and dissociated carboxylic groups in poly(aspartic acid) attached to the silica. The retention of alkali metal (Li+, Na+, K+), alkaline earth metal (Mg2+, Ca2+), ammonium and inorganic anions (Cl-, H2PO4-, Br-, NO2-, I-, IO3-, NO3-, ClO4-, SCN-) was tested in aqueous solutions of sulfuric, perchloric, sulfosalicylic, citric, oxalic, maleic and aspartic acids with conductimetric detection. The effect of eluent pH, together with the concentration and characteristics of the eluting ions, were studied. Under optimum conditions (0.3 mmol dm(-3) H2SO4-0.2 mmol dm(-3) Li2SO4 eluent), the simultaneous separation of three anions (Cl-, H2PO4-, NO3-) and four cations (Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+), on a PolyCAT A column (200 x 4.6 mm id, 5 microm film thickness) was achieved in 9 min.     

Dynamic coating ion-exchange chromatography of cations on an octadecyl-bonded silica stationary phase

It was found that common cations (Na+, NH4+, K+, Mg2+ and Ca2+) could be strongly retained on an ODS stationary phase when aqueous solutions of carboxylic acids were used as eluents. The chromatographic conditions used in this work were the same as in common cation-exchange chromatography on a cation-exchange resin and the retention behavior of the above-mentioned cations on the ODS column was quite similar to that on a cation-exchange column. The retention behavior and mechanism have been investigated using a number of carboxylic acids as eluents. The retention mechanism of the cations in these experiments was considered to be a dynamic coating ion-exchange mechanism. The carboxylic acids in the mobile phase were coated onto the surface of the ODS stationary phase and formed a dynamic carboxylic acid functional layer which could act like the functional group layer of a carboxylic group cation exchanger.     

Electrostatic Retention Mechanism of 2,2'-Dihydroxyazobenzene-Metal chelates on Octadecylsilanized Silica Stationary Phase

The chelating agent 2,2'-dihydroxyazobenzene (DHAB), as shown in Fig. 1, was superior to the determination of trace metal ions by HPLC with ion-pair partition mode. Among the DHAB-metal chelates, only the cationic DHAB-aluminium 1:lchelate,[AIL]⁺, is fluorescent. Thus this chelate is expected to be applicable for selective and sensitive determination of aluminium ion by HPLC. However, the retention behavior of[AlL]⁺ on octadecylsilanized silica stationary phase was not well understood. The interaction between[A1L]⁺ and octadecylsilanized silica stationary phase has been investigated.     

Selective retention of basic compounds by metal aquo‐ion affinity chromatography

A novel metal aquo‐ion affinity chromatography has been developed for the analysis of basic compounds using heat‐treated silica gel containing hydrated metal cations (metal aquo‐ions) as the packing material. The packing materials of the metal aquo‐ion affinity chromatography were prepared by the immobilization of a single metal component such as Fe(III), Al(III), Ag(I), and Ni(II) on silica gel followed by extensive heat treatment. The immobilized metals form aquo‐ions to present cation‐exchange ability for basic analytes and the cation‐exchange ability for basic analytes depends on pK_a of the immobilized metal species. In the present study, to evaluate the retention characteristics of metal aquo‐ion affinity chromatography, the on‐line solid‐phase extraction of drugs was investigated. Obtained data clearly evidence the selective retention capability of metal aquo‐ion affinity chromatography for basic analytes with sufficient capacity.
