Study on the effects of electrolytes and solvents in the determination of quaternary ammonium ions by nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis with contactless conductivity detection

A study on the separation of lipophilic quaternary ammonium cations in NACE coupled with contactless conductivity detection (NACE‐C⁴D) is presented. The suitability of different salts dissolved in various organic solvents as running electrolytes in NACE‐C⁴D was investigated. A solvent mixture of methanol/acetonitrile at a ratio of 90%:10% v/v showed the best results. Deoxycholic acid sodium salt as BGE was found to provide exceptional high stability with low baseline noise that leads to highest S/N ratios for the target analytes among all BGEs tested. Under the optimum conditions, capillaries with different internal diameters were examined and an id of 50 μm was found to give best detection sensitivity. The proposed method was validated and showed good linearity in the range from 2.5 to 200 μM, low limits of detection (0.1–0.7 μM) and acceptable reproducibility of peak area (intraday RSD 0.1–0.7%, n = 3; interday RSD 5.9–9.4%, n = 3).

A voltage trade study for the design of capillary electrophoresis instruments for spaceflight

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) systems have undergone extensive development for spaceflight applications. A flight-compatible high voltage power supply and the necessary voltage isolation for other energized components can be large contributors to both the volume and mass of a CE system, especially if typical high voltage levels of 25–30 kV are used. Here, we took advantage of our custom CE hardware to perform a trade study for simultaneous optimization of capillary length, high voltage level, and separation time, without sacrificing method performance. A capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (CE-C⁴D) method recently developed by our group to target inorganic cations and amino acids relevant to astrobiology was used as a test case. The results indicate that a 50 cm long capillary with 15 kV applied voltage (half of that used in the original method) can be used to achieve measurement goals while minimizing instrument size.     

Stability-indicating capillary electrophoresis method for the simultaneous determination of metformin hydrochloride,saxagliptin hydrochloride,and dapagliflozin in pharmaceutical tablets

A capillary electrophoretic method coupled to a diode array detector (CE-DAD) was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of metformin hydrochloride (MET), the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor saxagliptin hydrochloride (SAX), and the sodium glucose co-transporter (SGLT 2) inhibitor dapagliflozin (DAP). The proposed method was used for the determination of these drugs in binary antidiabetic combinations namely, SAX/MET, combination I, DAP/MET, combination II, and SAX/DAP, combination III. CE separation was performed on a fused silica capillary with background electrolyte consisting of 30?mM phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) with a high voltage of 30?kV, a pressure of 20 mbar, and an injection time of 40?s. The compounds were detected at 203?nm for SAX/DAP and 250?nm for MET. The method was linear in the concentration range of 10–200?µ?g/mL (SAX), 1.25–50?µ?g/mL (DAP), and 7.5–1000?µ?g/mL (MET). Full validation of the proposed method was performed as per the ICH guidelines. The obtained errors and deviation values did not exceed 2% assessing good accuracy and precision, respectively. The stability-indicating potential of the proposed method was proved under different stress-degradation conditions. The proposed method was successfully applied to the analysis of the three binary combinations in their tablets.     

Simultaneous determination of atenolol and amiloride in pharmaceutical preparations by capillary zone electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection

Capillary zone electrophoresis coupled with a capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detector (CE‐C⁴D) has been employed for the determination of atenolol and amiloride in pharmaceutical formulations. Acetic acid (150 mm ) was used as background electrolyte. The influence of several factors (detector excitation voltage and frequency, buffer concentration, applied voltage, capillary temperature and injection time) was studied. Non‐UV‐absorbing L‐valine was used as internal standard; the analytes were all separated in less than 7 min. The separation was carried out in normal polarity mode at 28°C, 25 kV and using hydrodynamic injection (25 s). The separation was effected in an uncoated fused‐silica capillary (75 μm, i.d. × 52 cm). The CE‐C⁴D method was validated with respect to linearity, limit of detection and quantification, accuracy, precision and selectivity. Calibration curves were linear over the range 5–250 μg/mL for the studied analytes. The relative standard deviations of intra‐ and inter‐day migration times and corrected peak areas were less than 6.0%. The method showed good precision and accuracy and was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of atenolol and amiloride in different pharmaceutical tablet formulations.

Determination of vitamin C and preservatives in beverages by conventional capillary electrophoresis and microchip electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection

The separation and detection of commonly used preservatives (benzoate, sorbate) and vitamin C by both conventional CE and microchip electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection is presented. The separation was optimized by adjusting the pH-value of the buffer and the use of hydroxypropyl-beta-CD (HP-beta-CD) and CTAB as additives. For conventional CE, optimal separation conditions were achieved in a histidine/tartrate buffer at pH 6.5, containing 0.025% HP-beta-CD and 0.1 mM CTAB. LOD ranged from 0.5 to 3 mg/L (S/N = 3) and the RSDs for migration time and peak area were less than 0.1 and 2%, respectively. A considerable reduction of analysis time can be accomplished by using microchip electrophoresis without significant loss in sensitivity under optimal separation conditions. A histidine/tartrate buffer at pH 6.5, incorporating 0.06% HP-beta-CD and 0.25 mM CTAB, gave detection limits ranging between 3 and 10 mg/L and satisfactory reproducibilities of < or =0.4% for the migration time and < or =3.5% for the peak area. The methods developed are useful for the quantitative determination of food additives in real samples such as soft drinks and vitamin C tablets.

Monosaccharide profiling of glycoproteins by capillary electrophoresis with contactless conductivity detection

Saccharides form one of the major constituents of biological macromolecules in living organisms. Many biological processes including protein folding, stability, immune response and receptor activation are regulated by glycosylation. In this work, we optimized a capillary electrophoresis method with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection for the separation of eight monosaccharides commonly found in glycoproteins, namely D-glucose, D-galactose, D-mannose, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, D-fucose, N-acetylneuraminic acid, and D-xylose. A highly alkaline solution of 50 mM sodium hydroxide, 22.5 mM disodium phosphate, and 0.2 mM CTAB (pH 12.4) was used as a background electrolyte in a 10 µm id capillary. To achieve baseline separation of all analytes, a counter-directional pressure of –270 kPa was applied during the separation. The limits of detection of our method were below 7 µg/ml (i.e., 1.5 pg or 1 mg/g protein) and the limits of quantification were below 22 µg/ml (i.e., 5 pg or 3 mg/g protein). As a proof of concept of our methodology, we performed an analysis of monosaccharides released from fetuin glycoprotein by acid hydrolysis. The results show that, when combined with an appropriate pre-concentration technique, the developed method can be used as a monosaccharide profiling tool in glycoproteomics and complement the routinely used LC-MS/MS analysis.     

Capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection method development and validation for the determination of azithromycin,clarithromycin, and clindamycin

A capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection based method for the assay of azithromycin, clarithromycin and clindamycin was optimized and validated in this study. A buffer solution of 20 mM 2‐(N‐morpholino) ethane sulfonic acid, 40 mM l ‐histidine and 0.6 mM cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (pH 6.39) was used for the electrophoresis. An uncoated, bare‐fused silica capillary (total length 60 cm, effective length 32 cm, 75 μm id) was used at 25°C. The sample was injected hydrodynamically at 0.5 psi for 5 s. The electrophoresis was conducted at 30 kV in reverse polarity for 6 min with 3 and 2 min of in‐between sodium hydroxide (0.1 M) and background electrolyte rinsing, respectively. Ammonium acetate was used as internal standard. This simple and robust method showed reasonable limit of detection and limit of quantitation for azithromycin (0.0125/0.03 mg/mL), clarithromycin (0.017/0.03 mg/mL), and clindamycin (0.038/0.06 mg/mL), with good selectivity, precision both intraday (relative standard deviation ≤ 1.0%) and interday (relative standard deviation < 3.7%), linearity (R ² > 0.999) and recovery (99 – 101.7%). The method was successfully applied for the determination of azithromycin, clarithromycin and clindamycin in formulations.

Simple in‐house flow‐injection capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity method for the determination of colistin

An in‐house flow‐injection capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection method was developed for the direct measurement of colistin in pharmaceutical samples. The flow injection and capillary electrophoresis systems are connected by an acrylic interface. Capillary electrophoresis separation is achieved within 2 min using a background electrolyte solution of 5 mM 2‐morpholinoethanesulfonic acid and 5 mM histidine (pH 6). The flow‐injection section allows for convenient filling of the capillary and sample introduction without the use of a pressure/vacuum manifold. Capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection is employed since colistin has no chromophore but is cationic at pH 6. Calibration curve is linear from 20 to 150 mg/L, with a correlation coefficient (r²) of 0.997. The limit of quantitation is 20 mg/L. The developed method provides precision, simplicity, and short analysis time.

A green capillary zone electrophoresis method for the simultaneous determination of piperacillin,tazobactam and cefepime in pharmaceutical formulations and human plasma

A green, novel, rapid, accurate and reliable capillary zone electrophoresis method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of piperacillin, tazobactam and cefepime in pharmaceutical preparations. Separation was carried out using fused silica capillary (50 µm i.d. × 48.6 cm and 40.2 cm detection length) and applied potential of 20 kV (positive polarity) and a running buffer containing 15 m m sodium borate buffer adjusted to pH 9.3 with UV detection at 215 nm. Amoxicillin was used as an internal standard. The method was suitably validated according to International Conference on Harmonization guidelines. The method showed good linearity in the ranges of 10–100, 20–400 and 10–400 µg/mL with limits of quantitation of 1.87, 3.17 and 6.97 µg/mL and limits of detection of 0.56, 0.95 and 2.09 µg/mL for tazobactam, piperacillin and cefepime, respectively. The proposed method was successfully applied for the analysis of these drugs in their synthetic mixtures and co‐formulated injection vials. The method was extended to the in vitro determination of the two drugs in spiked human plasma. It is considered a ‘green’ method as it consumes no organic solvents.

Analysis times shorter than 4 min were obtained using a background electrolyte solution consisting of 25 mmol/L phosphoric acid adjusted with 1 m Tris buffer to pH 8.5, with hydrodynamic injection of 5 s and 20 kV separation voltage. The validation criteria for accuracy, precision, linearity and limits of detection and quantitation were examined and discussed. An excellent linearity was obtained in concentration range 25–250 µg/mL. The detection limits for ofloxacin and ornidazole were 1.03 ± 0.11 and 1.80 ± 0.06 µg/mL, respectively. The proposed method has been applied for the analysis of ofloxacin and ornidazole both individually and in a combined dosage tablet formulation. The proposed validated method showed recoveries between 96.16 and 105.23% of the nominal contents. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A new method for determination of hyaluronidase activity in biological samples using capillary zone electrophoresis

The aim of the study was to develop a new capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method for determination of enzymatic activity of hyaluronidase. The method permits monitoring of the process of hyaluronic acid digestion by hyaluronidase. Studies were performed using CZE instrument equipped with capillary of 64.5 cm total length, 56 cm effective length and internal diameter 75 µm. Separation was performed in the phosphate buffer (pH 8.10) in the electric field of 20 kV, λ = 220 nm. The procedure was based on mixing a known quantity of hyaluronic acid and an aliquot of hyaluronidase solution, followed by obtaining CZE profiles after a known period of incubation (0.5 h). The activity of hyaluronidase was calculated using multiple regression analysis in which sizes of the peaks of the main degradation products were used. The newly developed method was fully validated and it is appropriate to evaluate the activity of hyaluronidase originating from different sources with high precision and accuracy. t‐Tests showed that there were no significant differences between results obtained using turbidimetric, viscosimetric and the new CZE method. The developed method is characterized by a short duration of analysis, low volume of analyzed sample, small amount of buffers used and low cost of analysis.

Paracetamol is an active ingredient commonly found in pharmaceutical formulations in combination with one of the following compounds: codeine, orphenadrine, promethazine, scopolamine, and tramadol. In this work, we propose a unique analytical method for determination of these active ingredients in pharmaceutical samples. The method is based on capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection.

Each sample can be analyzed in a single run (≤2 min) and the limits of detection were 2.5, 0.62, 0.63, 2.5, 15, and 1.6 μmol/L for scopolamine, tramadol, orphenadrine, promethazine, codeine, and paracetamol, respectively. Recovery values for spiked samples were between 94 and 104%.     

Optimization of background electrolyte composition for simultaneous contactless conductivity and fluorescence detection in capillary electrophoresis of biological samples

In this article, optimization of BGE for simultaneous separation of inorganic ions, organic acids, and glutathione using dual C⁴D‐LIF detection in capillary electrophoresis is presented. The optimized BGE consisted of 30 mM 2‐[4‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)piperazin‐1‐yl]ethanesulfonic acid, 15 mM 2‐amino‐2‐hydroxymethyl‐propane‐1,3‐diol, and 2 mM 18‐crown‐6 at pH 7.2 and allowed simultaneous separation of ten inorganic anions and cations, three organic acids and glutathione in 20 min. The samples were injected hydrodynamically from both capillary ends using the double‐opposite end injection principle. Sensitive detection of anions, cations, and organic acids with micromolar LODs using C⁴D and simultaneously glutathione with nanomolar LODs using LIF was achieved in a single run. The developed BGE may be useful in analyses of biological samples containing analytes with differing concentrations of several orders of magnitude that is not possible with single detection mode.
