Use of surfactant-mediated phase separation (cloud point extraction) with affinity ligands for the extraction of hydrophilic proteins

The feasibility of utilizing a zwitterionic surfactant, 3-(nonyldimethylammonio)propylsulfate, or nonionic surfactant, Triton X-114, mediated phase separation in conjunction with affinity ligands was studied for hydrophilic protein extractions. Below (or above) its critical temperature (so-called cloud point), aqueous solutions of zwitterionic (or nonionic) surfactants separate into two immiscible phases, a surfactant-rich phase and an aqueous phase. Avidin was successfully extracted into the zwitterionic surfactant-rich phase when a small amount of the affinity ligand, N- biotinoyl)dipalmitoyl- l -alpha- phosphatidyl ethanolamine, was added to the system. It was not possible to extract hexokinase into the surfactant-rich phase of the nonionic surfactant, Triton X-114, even if a considerable amount of octyl-beta-d-glucoside was added to the solution as an affinity ligand. In contrast, the use of the zwitterionic surfactant and octyl-beta-d-glucoside as an affinity ligand proved to be effective for the extraction of hexokinase. The hexokinase extraction efficiency was found to depend upon the solution pH and the concentration of the affinity ligand in the system. The results clearly indicate that hydrophilic proteins can be successfully extracted with surfactant mediated phase separations (cloud point extractions) via use of the zwitterionic surfactant, 3-(nonyldimethylammonio)propylsulfate, and appropriate affinity ligands. Some advantages of zwitterionic surfactants in such extractive processes relative to that of nonionic surfactants are delineated.     

Clouding and phase behavior of nonionic surfactants in hydrophobically modified hydroxyethyl cellulose solutions

Clouding phenomena and phase behaviors of two nonionic surfactants, Triton X-114 and Triton X-100, in the presence of either hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) or its hydrophobically modified counterpart (HMHEC) were experimentally studied. Compared with HEC, HMHEC was found to have a stronger effect on lowering the cloud point temperature of a nonionic surfactant at low concentrations. The difference in clouding behavior can be attributed to different kinds of molecular interactions. Depletion flocculation is the underlying mechanism in the case of HEC, while the chain-bridging effect is responsible for the large decrease of cloud point for HMHEC. Composition analyses for the formed macroscopic phases were carried out to provide support for associative phase separation for the case of HMHEC, in contrast to segregative phase separation for HEC. An interesting three-phase-separation phenomenon was reported in some HMHEC/Triton X-100 mixtures at high surfactant concentrations.

Screening of urinary coproporphyrin using cloud point extraction and chemiluminescence detection

A simple screening test was developed for the sensitive and selective measurement of urinary coproporphyrin. In this screening test, efficient and selective extraction/pre-concentration of coproporphyrin from the aqueous medium(urine) into a much smaller volume phase containing a common non-ionic surfactant (Triton X-100) and ethyl acetate was accomplished by the addition of a relatively large amount of a cloud point depressing electrolyte (K(3)PO(4)) into the sample solution to effect cloud point separation. Sensitive and selective detection of coproporphyrin in the mixed Triton X-100 and ethyl acetate phase was performed via chemical excitation using the peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence reaction. The effects of surfactant and cations (from the cloud point depressing electrolyte) on the chemiluminescence intensity of coproporphyrin were briefly investigated. Furthermore, the spectrum of urinary coproporphyrin obtained using the present chemiluminescence method was briefly compared with that obtained from fluorescence method.     

Study on cloud points of Triton X-100-cationic gemini surfactants mixtures: A spectroscopic approach

This study investigates the effects of various cationic surfactants on the cloud point (CP) of the nonionic surfactant Triton X-100 (TX-100) in aqueous solutions. Instead of visual observation, a spectrophotometer was used for measurement of the cloud point temperatures. The values of CPs for Triton X-100 can be measured directly because TX-100 has an average number of oxyethylene units per molecule of p ≈ 9.5 and a CP = 66.0 °C. Quaternary ammonium dimeric surfactants (m-s-m, m = 10, 12, and 16, and s = 2, 6, and 10) were synthesized and used. The melting temperature T_M and the Krafft temperature T_K were measured for 1 wt% aqueous solutions of these synthesized surfactants. The melting temperature of the solid gemini surfactants increased with the carbon number of the alkyl chain. The results showed that additions of the gemini surfactants (which are infinitely miscible with water) to Triton X-100 increased the cloud point of the TX-100 solutions. All salts tested in these studies had a large effect on the CPs of nonionic surfactants due to their effect on water structure and their hydrophilicity. The effect of the alkyl chain length of the gemini surfactant on the CP of Triton X-100 is therefore more important than the spacer chain length.     

Micellar extraction preconcentration of barium with phases of nonionic surfactants at the cloud point

The micellar extraction of barium with phases of nonionic surfactant Triton X-100 was studied in the presence of aliphatic monocarboxylic acids, crown ethers, and Carboxyarsenazo and its mixtures with cetylpyridinium chloride and octylamine. It was shown that the complete extraction of barium into the micellar phase was attained using Carboxyarsenazo and cationic surfactants in the presence of octylamine through the formation of a ternary hydrophobic complex. The conditions for the determination of the atomic absorption of barium in water with preconcentration into the nonionic surfactant phase at the cloud point temperature were developed.     

Salting-out surfactant extraction of porphyrins and metalloporphyrin from aqueous non-ionic surfactant solutions

A number of cloud point temperature-depressing electrolytes have been investigated for the separation of a non-ionic surfactant (Triton X-100) from aqueous solutions and the corresponding extraction of the organic solutes into the smaller volume surfactant-rich phase using the salting-out method. High extraction efficiencies and preconcentration factors were obtained at room temperature for the extraction of several hydrophilic and hydrophobic metal-free porphyrins (uroporphyrin, coproporphyrin, protoporphyrin and hematoporphyrin) and one metalloporphyrin (iron-protoporphyrin) that were dissolved in the aqueous non-ionic surfactant solutions. Possible mechanisms responsible for the efficient extraction of these important biological molecules into the surfactant-rich layer are discussed.     

Simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of uranium and zirconium using cloud point extraction and multivariate methods

A cloud point extraction (CPE) process using the nonionic surfactant Triton X-114 to simultaneous extraction and spectrophotometric determination of uranium and zirconium from aqueous solution using partial least squares (PLS) regression is investigated. The method is based on the complexation reaction of these cations with Alizarin Red S (ARS) and subsequent micelle-mediated extraction of products. The chemical parameters affecting the separation phase and detection process were studied and optimized. Under the optimum experimental conditions (i.e. pH 5.2, Triton X-114?=?0.20%, equilibrium time 10?min and cloud point 45?°C), calibration graphs were linear in the range of 0.01?C3?mg?L^?1 with detection limits of 2.0 and 0.80???g L^?1 for U and Zr, respectively. The experimental calibration set was composed of 16 sample solutions using an orthogonal design for two component mixtures. The root mean square error of predictions (RMSEPs) for U and Zr were 0.0907 and 0.1117, respectively. The interference effect of some anions and cations was also tested. The method was applied to the simultaneous determination of U and Zr in water samples.

Mixed micelle behavior of Pluronic L64 and Triton X-100 with conventional and dimeric cationic surfactants

The mixed micellar properties of a triblock copolymer, Pluronic L64, (EO)13(PO)30(EO)13, and a nonionic surfactant, Triton X-100, in aqueous solution with conventional alkyl ammonium bromides and their dimeric homologues were investigated with the help of fluorescence and cloud point measurements. The composition of mixed micelles and the interaction parameter, beta, evaluated from the critical micelle concentration (cmc) data for different mixtures using Rubingh's and Motomura's theories are discussed. It has been observed that the mixed micelle formation between monomeric/dimeric alkyl ammonium bromides and L64 was due to synergistic interactions which increase with the increase in hydrophobicity of the cationic component. On the other hand, synergistic mixing was observed in the mixed micelles of Triton X-100 and monomeric cationic surfactants, the magnitude of which decreases slightly with the increase in hydrophobicity of the cationic component. Antagonistic interactions were observed in the case of Triton X-100 and dimeric cationic surfactants.     

Application of cloud point extraction technique to preconcentration and spectrophotometric determination of free chlorine in water samples

A rapid, selective, and sensitive cloud point extraction process using mixed micelle of a nonionic surfactant Triton X-114 and an anionic surfactant, SDS, to extract chlorine from aqueous solution was investigated. The method is based on the color reaction of chlorine with N,N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine (DPD) in phosphate buffer media and cloud point extraction of the produced dye. Various factors and extraction and reaction conditions such as surfactant concentration and reagent concentration were studied and the analytical characteristics of the method (e.g. limit of detection, linear range, preconcentration, and improvement factors) were obtained. Linearity was obeyed in the range of 3.0–450 ng/mL of chlorine and the detection limit of the method was 1.0 ng/mL. The interference effects of some cations and anions were also tested. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of free chlorine in drinking, river, well and pool swimming water samples.     

Absorption spectra of 7, 7, 8, 8-tetracyanoquinodimethane in micellar solutions.

The absorption spectra of 7, 7, 8, 8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) with nonionic surfactant. Triton X-100, anionic surfactant, SLS and cationic surfactant, CTAB in aqueous and nonaqueous media have been studied. The spectral studies show that TCNQ forms 1:1 charge-transfer (CT) complex with Triton X-100 in both media. The aqueous solution of TCNQ shows an absorption maxima at 610 nm, which is unperturbed in the presence of SLS but is shifted to 650 nm in the presence of CTAB, indicating the interaction of TCNQ with the cationic surfactant and not with the anionic surfactant. In addition to this, the stability of TCNQ-Triton X-100 complex has been determined and the probable site of CT interaction has been pointed out.

Clouding Behavior and Thermodynamic Study of Nonionic Surfactants in Presence of Additives

The present study investigates the effect of different additives on the cloud point (CP) of nonionic surfactants Triton X-100 (TX-100) and Triton X-114 (TX-114) in aqueous solutions. The thermodynamic parameters of these mixtures were calculated at different additive concentrations. The cloud point of nonionic surfactants TX-100 and TX-114 decreased with the increment of electrolyte concentrations and increased with alcohol concentrations. The standard Gibbs free energy was found to be positive for both the surfactants, whereas the enthalpy and the entropy of the clouding phenomenon were found to be positive with alcohols and negative with electrolytes. The overall clouding process was endothermic for alcohols and exothermic for electrolytes.     

Simultaneous cloud-point extraction of nine cations from water samples and their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry.

The cloud-point methodology was successfully employed for the preconcentration of heavy metal cations at trace levels from aqueous samples prior to flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). Cations were taken into a complex with 8-quinolinol in an aqueous non-ionic surfactant, Triton X-114, medium and concentrated in the surfactant rich phase by bringing the solution to the cloud-point temperature. The preconcentration of only 100 mL of the solution with 1% Triton X-114 and 10(-3) M 8-quinolinol at pH 7.0 gave a preconcentration factor higher than 100 for most cations. Under these conditions, the detection limits of the cloud-point extraction-FAAS system were 0.8 - 15 microg/L.     

Cloud point extraction: an alternative to traditional liquid-liquid extraction for lanthanides(III) separation

Cloud point extraction (CPE) was used to extract and separate lanthanum(III) and gadolinium(III) nitrate from an aqueous solution. The methodology used is based on the formation of lanthanide(III)-8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) complexes soluble in a micellar phase of non-ionic surfactant. The lanthanide(III) complexes are then extracted into the surfactant-rich phase at a temperature above the cloud point temperature (CPT). The structure of the non-ionic surfactant, and the chelating agent-metal molar ratio are identified as factors determining the extraction efficiency and selectivity. In an aqueous solution containing equimolar concentrations of La(III) and Gd(III), extraction efficiency for Gd(III) can reach 96% with a Gd(III)/La(III) selectivity higher than 30 using Triton X-114. Under those conditions, a Gd(III) decontamination factor of 50 is obtained.     

Spectrophotometric determination of paracetamol in urine with tetrahydroxycalix[4]arene as a coupling reagent and preconcentration with triton X-114 using cloud point extraction

In the present paper, conventional spectrophotometry in conjunction with cloud point extraction-preconcentration were investigated as alternative methods for paracetamol (PCT) assay in urine samples. Cloud point extraction (CPE) was employed for the preconcentration of p-aminophenol (PAP) prior to spectrophotometric determination using the non-ionic surfactant Triton X-114 (TX-114) as an extractant. The developed methods were based on acidic hydrolysis of PCT to PAP, which reacted at room temperature with 25,26,27,28-tetrahydroxycalix[4]arene (CAL4) in the presence of an oxidant (KIO(4)) to form an blue colored product. The PAP-CAL4 blue dye formed was subsequently entrapped in the surfactant micelles of Triton X-114. Cloud point phase separation with the aid of Triton X-114 induced by addition of Na(2)SO(4) solution was performed at room temperature as an advantage over other CPE assays requiring elevated temperatures. The 580 nm-absorbance maximum of the formed product was shifted bathochromically to 590 nm with CPE. The working range of 1.5-12 mug ml(-1) achieved by conventional spectrophotometry was reduced down to 0.14-1.5 mug ml(-1) with cloud point extraction, which was lower than those of most literature flow-through assays that also suffer from nonspecific absorption in the UV region. By preconcentrating 10 ml sample solution, a detection limit as low as 40.0 ng ml(-1) was obtained after a single-step extraction, achieving a preconcentration factor of 10. The stoichiometric composition of the dye was found to be 1 : 4 (PAP : CAL4). The impact of a number of parameters such as concentrations of CAL4, KIO(4), Triton X-100 (TX-100), and TX-114, extraction temperature, time periods for incubation and centrifugation, and sample volume were investigated in detail. The determination of PAP in the presence of paracetamol in micellar systems under these conditions is limited. The established procedures were successfully adopted for the determination of PCT in urine samples. Since the drug is rapidly absorbed and excreted largely in urine and its high doses have been associated with lethal hepatic necrosis and renal failure, development of a rapid, sensitive and selective assay of PCT is of vital importance for fast urinary screening and antidote administration before applying more sophisticated, but costly and laborious hyphenated instrumental techniques of HPLC-SPE-NMR-MS.     

Effect of Surfactants and Ionic Strength on Dissociation of Hydrochlorides of Phenothiazine Derivatives

Abstract

A study of the effect of the anionic surfactant dodecyl sulfate, the cationic surfactant carbethoxypentadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (Septonex), nonionic surfactant p-octyl phenyl polyoxyethylene (Triton X-100), and a strong electrolyte (KBr) on the dissociation of the hydrochlorides of two derivatives of phenothiazine (diethazine and fluphenazine) was made. It was found that sodium dodecyl sulfate increases the pKa value, whereas Septonex and Triton X-100 decrease this value. The presence of KBr suppresses the effect of the surfactants. A new method for the potentiometric determination of fluphenazine in an aqueous medium was proposed.     

Self-aggregation and supramolecular structure investigations of Triton X-100 and SDP2S by NOESY and diffusion ordered NMR spectroscopy

The self-aggregation and supramolecular micellar structure of two surfactants in aqueous solution, the anionic surfactant SDP2S (sodium dodecyl dioxyethylene-2 sulfate) and the nonionic surfactant Triton X-100 (octylphenol-polyoxyethylene ether with 9.5 ethoxy groups), were investigated by NMR spectroscopy. The critical micellar concentration (CMC), the size, and shape of the aggregates were determined by diffusion ordered NMR spectroscopy (DOSY), while 2D NOESY NMR spectra were used to study the mutual spatial arrangement of surfactant molecules in the aggregated state. A nonlinear increase of the micellar hydrodynamic radius, indicating possible sphere-to-rod shape transition, was found for SDP2S at higher surfactant concentrations. Triton X-100 micelles were found to be almost spherical at low surfactant concentrations, but formation of ellipsoid shaped particles and/or micellar aggregation was observed at higher concentrations. The NOESY data show that at low concentration Triton X-100 forms a two-layer spherical structure in the micelles, with partially overlapping internal and external layers of Triton X-100 molecules and no distinct hydrophilic-hydrophobic boundary.
