Separating Ability of Some Polar Mobile Phases in Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography

Abstract

Homologous series of n-alkanes, n-alcohols, ethers, esters, amides and ketones were studied as solutes. Methanol, acetonitrile, ethanol, dioxane, 2-propanol and tetrahydrofuran were mobile phases. Spherisorb ODS columns with light and heavy octadecyl coatings were used. Methanol and acetonitrile were found to be the most selective solvents for reverse phase separation. The polar amides, alcohols, and ketones behaved differently from nonpolar solutes in acetonitrile mobile phases. Results were interpreted with the solvophobic theory.     

基于pH敏感相分离技术的新型荧光免疫测定体系

In this paper, it was discovered that a novel pH-sensitive copolymer of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIP) and N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)methacrylamide (DMAPM) could be gotten by polymerization. The phase transition pH (pHtr) of P(NIP-DMAPM) polymer was found to be 7.4 at 37℃. The polymer was precipitated out of water above a critical pH=7.4 and re-dissolved below pH----7.4. The characteristic of this polymer made it possible to carry out the immunochemical steps of an immunoassay in a true solution and then to quickly separate the resulting product from the reaction mixture. In a competitive fluorescence immunoassay, the standard rabbit IgG and rabbit IgG immobilized on P(NIP-DMAPM) first competitively reacted with the fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labeled antibody, then the pH of solution was adjusted above the pHtr of polymer to precipitate the polymer-immune complex,and the polymer-immune complex precipitate was separated and re-dissolved by the adjustment of pH, finally the FITC-labeled antibody in the immune complex was quantified by fluorescence measurement. The calibration graph for rabbit IgG was linear over the range of 100-1000 ng/mL with a detection limit of 11 ng/mL. The method is rapid, sensitive and simple. Owing to neutral pHtr of P(NIP-DMAPM), the damage to antigen-antibody immune complex was greatly decreased in the course of separation. In addition, a sandwich enzyme-linked fluorescence immunoassay method for the determination of human IgG was also developed, showing that the pH-sensitive phase separating immunoassay could be performed in the competitive method as well as the sandwich method.     

Buffer Choice for Tuning the Selectivity in Reverse Phase Chromatography

Abstract

Retention behaviour of ionogenic species in high-performance liquid chromatography on reversed phase materials was studied, specifically dependence of buffer quality applied to mobile phases. The buffers' effect on retention of organic acids, amino acids and dipeptides is quantified by modelling capacity factors as a function of pH-values. At constant ionic strength, increasing capacity factors were observed going from phosphate to less polar citrate buffer, modification of accessible silanol groups of the stationary phase being responsible for this effect. Application of citrate buffer for separation of a seven-component mixture is demonstrated on the basis of a computerized search for optimum chromatographic performance. The evaluated factor levels (pH, methanol content and ionic strength) differ from those found using phosphate buffer-containing mobile phases.

A Reverse Phase HPLC Assay for the Determination of Calcium Pantothenate Utilizing Column Switching

Abstract

A reverse phase HPLC assay utilizing column switching has been developed and validated for the determination of calcium pantothenate (CP) in several multivitamin tablet formulations. The reverse phase system utilizes a DuPont Zorbax C-8 analytical column, an automatically switched and backflushed Brownlee RP-18 guard column for the elimination of a highly retained excipient peak, 88:12 0.25M phosphate buffer:MeOH mobile phase, and 214 nm detection. Sample preparation and the switched column chromatography cycle each require approximately 15 minutes. A spiked recovery study showed linearity over the 50–150% of theory concentration range. Average recovery was 99.7%. Assay precision studies yielded sample RSD's ranging from 0.8 to 2.3%. Results obtained by this method are comparable to those obtained by the USP method.

Sensitivity levels of the order of 100 pmoles can be obtained. The dependence on time and temperature of the oxidation processes which L-ascorbic acid undergoes during its preservation has also been studied.     

A Reverse Phase HPLC Method for the Determination of Chloramphenicol and Its Hydrolytic Product in Ophthalmic Solutions

Abstract

A reverse phase HPLC procedure is described for the determination of chloramphenicol and its hydrolytic product, 2-amino-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-propane-1,3-diol. The method was validated for reproducibility, linearity and recovery for both components. It was successfully applied to monitor post-marketing stability of ten batches of chloramphenicol ophthalmic solutions stored at room temperature. As compared to the BP method using solvent extraction and UV measurements, for the determination of chloramphenicol and its hydrolytic product in chloramphenicol eye drops, the suggested procedure was found to be relatively more accurate, precise and less time-consuming.

A Reverse Phase HPLC Method to Determine Six Food Dyes Using Buffered Mobile Phase.

Abstract

A reverse phase high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method to determine six food dyes (Sunset Yellow (E-110), Carminic acid (E-120) Carmoisine (E-122), Amaranth (E-123), Ponceau 4R (E-124) and Erythrosine (E-127) is developed in this paper. The separation was made on a Nova-Pack C18 column using methanol -NaH₂PO₄/Na₂HPO₄ pH=7 buffer solution 0.1M as mobile phase with an elution gradient system. The detection was made with a variable UV-Vis. detector fixed at 520 nm.

The effect of mobile phase composition such as the percentage of methanol or acetonitrile, pH value and ionic strength on retention times of the dyes was investigated. In the chromatographic conditions selected, the dyes were eluted in four minutes. Two calibration graphs for each dye were established by measuring the peak area and the peak height in the chromatograms. Determination limits ranging from 0.8 to 9.2 ng were obtained when the peak area was measured.

Several commercial products containing some of these dyes were analyzed.     

A Four-Component Model for Volume Phase Transition: Discussion of Reverse Pattern and Combined Pattern

Abstract

As an extension of “normal pattern” volume phase transition, the four-component model of a hydrogel, which consists of a copolymer network and a solution with two solvents, is further applied to the “reverse pattern” and “combined pattern” proposed by Katayama. It is shown that these two kinds of volume phase transitions can be explained by choosing interaction parameters suitably.

Reverse Phase HPLC Determination of Azq in Biological Fluids

Abstract

A sensitive and specific reverse phase HPLC method employing a simple sample preparation procedure and utilizing an internal standard was developed to measure the new antitumor agent AZQ in biological fluids. A single chloroform extraction gave drug recoveries of greater than 88% from plasma, urine and CSF in the range of expected physiological concentrations (20–800 ng/ml). Isocratic reverse phase HPLC with UV detection at 340 nm resulted in a limit of quantisation of 5 ng/ml although smaller amounts of the drug could be detected. This assay was successfully applied to determine the single dose plasma pharmacokinetics of AZQ in rats. The potential of this method for determining AZQ disposition and pharmacokinetics in human subjects was demonstrated by analysis of patient CSF.     

Reverse Phase Liquid Chromatographic Analysis of the Impurities in Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotides

Abstract

Commercial preparations of several different nicotine adenine dinucleotides were examined by liquid chromatography on an octadecylsilane column (Margolis, S., et al., Clin. Chem., 22, 1322, 1976). Seven impurity peaks were detected in NADP⁺, eight in NADPH, and five in NAD⁺. The estimated purity of NADP⁺ from different commercial suppliers varied from 89 to 95 percent. For NADPH the purity ranged from 77.5 to 96 percent and for NAD⁺ from 90 to 93.5 percent. Preparations of NAD⁺ contained AMP, ADPR, nicotinamide, and two unidentified impurities. The impurities found in NADP⁺ and NADPH preparations did not correspond to compounds that we could identify. Four of the impurity peaks found in NADPH form under acidic storage conditions. Five of the impurity peaks observed in NADP⁺ and three of the impurity peaks in NAD⁺ form as products of alkali-catalyzed rearrangements.     

Use of Aqueous Micellar Mobile Phases in Reverse Phase TLC

Abstract

Aqueous micellar solutions can be used in reverse phase TLC providing the ionic strength of the solution is sufficiently high to prevent the destruction of the stationary phase. Stability curves have been determined for sodium dodecyl sulfate and cetyltrimethylammonium chloride containing aqueous mobile phases. These “pseudophase” solutions allow the unique separation of hydrophobic from hydrophilic compounds. Indeed one can estimate the relative hydrophobicity of a compound by observing its chromatographic behavior in this system.
