Mixed Supports in the Reversed-Phase Thin-Layer Chromatography of Amino Acids

Abstract

Lipophilicity of amino acids was determined by reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography using silica, aluminium oxide, cellulose, diatomaceous earth and their mixtures as supports with water as eluent.

To compare the retention behaviour of supports principal component analysis /PCA/ was applied. The potency order and the selectivity of support mixtures was calculated by the spectral map technique. Linear and logarithmic correlations were calculated between the first PCA loadings and the potency values as dependent variables and the composition of supports as independent variables.

The first eigenvalue explained more than 90% of the total variance that is only one hidden factor influenced decisively the retention. On the basis of structural differences the retention strength of amino acids on support mixtures can not be explained adequately. The first principal component responsible for the 90% of change in the retention of amino acids is related to the logarithm of support composition that is the sorbents retain their original adsorptive character also after impregnation.

Salting-Out and Salting-in Effects in the Reversed-Phase Thin-Layer Chromatography of Dansylated Amino Acids. Effect of Acids

Abstract

The retention of 15 dansylated amino acid derivatives was determined in aqueous solutions of formic, acetic, propionic and perchloric acid in reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography. The acids increased the retention of each derivatives at the low concentration range. This effect has been tentatively explained by the suppression of dissociation of polar groups in the solute molecules resulting in increased apparent lipophilicity (salting-out phenomenon). The higher concentrations of acid solutions decreased the retention (salting-in effect), the undissociated acid molecules probably act as an organic mobile phase. Both salting-in and salting-out phenomena can be simultaneously described by bilinear function. The polarity parameters of the amino acids, their hydrophobicity and the strength of the acid in the eluent simultaneously influence the retention.

Elucidation of Chemical Interactions between Crude Drugs Using Quantitative Thin-Layer Chromatography Analysis

To elucidate the interactions between crude drugs in Kampo medicines (traditional Japanese medicines), it is important to determine the content of the constituents in a cost-effective and simple manner. In this study, we quantified the constituents in crude drug extracts using thin-layer chromatography (TLC), an inexpensive and simple analytical method, to elucidate the chemical interactions between crude drugs. We focused on five crude drugs, for which quantitative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods are stipulated in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia XVIII (JP XVIII) and compared the analytical data of HPLC and TLC, confirming that the TLC results corresponded with the HPLC data and satisfied the criteria of JP XVIII. (Z)-ligustilide, a major constituent in Japanese Angelica Root, for which a method of quantification has not been stipulated in JP XVIII, was also quantitatively analyzed using HPLC and TLC. Furthermore, Japanese Angelica Root was combined with 26 crude drugs to observe the variation in the (Z)-ligustilide content from each combination by TLC. The results revealed that combinations with Phellodendron Bark, Citrus Unshiu Peel, Scutellaria Root, Coptis Rhizome, Gardenia Fruit, and Peony Root increased the (Z)-ligustilide content. Quantifying the constituents in crude drug extracts using the inexpensive and simple TLC method can contribute to elucidating interactions between crude drugs in Kampo medicines, as proposed by the herbal-pair theory.

Determination of Free and Total Underivatized Amino Acids Including L-Canavanine in Bitter Vetch Seeds Using Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography

A new hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography method coupled with diode-array detector was developed for the determination of 17 underivatized amino acids including L-canavanine in bitter vetch [Vicia ervilia (L.) Willd.] seeds. Amino acids were extracted as free as well as total extracts after acid hydrolysis, followed by chromatographic separation on a Zorbax Rx-SIL column with a mobile phase of acetonitrile/potassium phosphate buffer (12.5?mM; pH 3.0) using gradient elution and detection at 190?nm. The method is characterized by a wide linear range (0.01–200?µg/mL, r?>?0.9987), sufficient accuracy (relative error 86.3–109.1%), and suitable precision for the results (relative standard deviation <4.9% in the case of intra-day and <9.8% in the case of inter-day precision). The limits of detection and quantification for free amino acids ranged from 0.01 to 0.24?mg/g and 0.03 to 0.72?mg/g, respectively, whereas the total amino acids ranged from 0.02 to 0.47?mg/g and 0.07 to 1.43?mg/g, respectively. The mean recoveries of free and total amino acids in spiked samples exceeded 70.3% for most amino acids. The mean total content of free and total amino acids in bitter vetch seeds was 1.71 and 14.88?g/100?g seed, whereas the corresponding values for canavanine were 0.07 and 0.19?g/100?g seed, respectively.
