High-performance liquid chromatographic analyses for use in the acrylamide synthesis process

Summary Two liquid chromatographic methods are described for the separation and determination of components in the production of acrylamide by the catalytic hydration of acrylonitrile. The first of these provides a rapid technique by which concentrations and conversion can be directly determined for process control applications, whilst the second represents a more rigorous separation of all possible impurities for quality control purposes.     

High-performance liquid chromatography of seized drugs at elevated pressure with 1.7 microm hybrid C18 stationary phase columns

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation of drugs at elevated pressure with 1.7 microm hybrid C18 stationary phase columns was investigated. This technique, which uses instrumentation engineered to handle the narrow peaks and high back pressures generated by 1.7 microm particle columns, provided significantly better resolution and/or faster analysis than conventional HPLC and capillary electrophoresis (CE). The use of 2mm internal diameter (i.d.) columns of 3-10 cm length has been evaluated for the separation of basic and neutral drugs, drug profiling, and general screening (including acidic drugs). For these applications, compared to conventional HPLC and CE, it provided up to 12x and 3x faster analyses, respectively. Precision was excellent for both isocratic and gradient analyses. For retention time and peak area, RSDs of < or =0.1% were obtainable. Fifteen anabolic steroids and esters were well separated in a 2.5 min gradient. For drug profiling, compared to HPLC and CE, approximately twice as many peaks were resolved. HPLC at elevated pressure is also well suited as a general screening technique. Twenty-four solutes of varying drug classes including narcotic analgesics, stimulants, depressants, hallucinogens, and anabolic steroids were fully separated in a 13.5 min gradient.

Determination of methoxsalen in dosage forms by high-performance liquid chromatography

Summary A new, rapid, sensitive, and specific method for the determination of methoxsalen in dosage forms using HPLC has been developed. methoxsalen is extracted in chloroform, evaporated on a water bath, and the residue is redissolved in ethanol. A standard solution of khellin (internal standard) in ethanol is added, and injected. A plot of peak height ratio (methoxsalen/internal standard) vs. concentration of methoxsalen gave a straight line (r=0.998). The column used was a stainless steel, 3.8 mm×30 cm, and the mobile phase was methanol: water (6040) at a flow rate of 2 cm³/min. Retention times for methoxsalen and khellin were 3.45 and 9.6 min, respectively. This method was found superior to the spectrophotometric assay in that no interference was encountered from structurally similar compounds or from coloring agents used in some commercial methoxsalen products.     

High-performance liquid chromatography of fenitrothion and seven derivatives — A study of their recovery from water using XAD resins as compared with organic solvents

Summary The separation of fenitrothion and seven possible degradation products namely aminofenitrothion, fenitrooxon, S-methylfenitrothion, formylfenitrothion, hydro-xymethylfenitrothion, nitrocresol and thiocresol, was accomplished on a non-polar stationary phase with a hydrophylic mobile phase. Operating parameters were optimized to achieve maximum resolution. Recovery of the eight chemicals was done using Amberlite resins XAD-2, –4, and –7. Comparison was made with the conventional solvent extraction technique using methylene chloride and ethyl acetate, respectively. In general, recoveries were good with the resins except for formylfenitrothion, hydroxymethylfenitrothion and thiocresol. An improvement in recovery was observed for S-methylfenitrothion with ethyl acetate but methylene chloride was generally less efficient than the resins. Recovery from environmental water was successful.     

High-performance liquid chromatography of sulfonamides and quinolones on p-tert-butyl-calix[6]arene-bonded silica gel stationary phase

The high-performance liquid chromatographic behavior of some sulfonamides and quinolones was studied on a p-tert-butyl-calix[6]arene-bonded silica gel stationary phase. The effect of mobile phase variables such as methanol content, ionic strength and pH on their chromatographic behavior was investigated. The retention behavior of sulfonamides on the stationary phase was compared with that on both Zorbax C₁₈-bonded silica gel and γ-(ethylenediamino)propyltriethoxylsilane-bonded silica gel (diamino-bonded phase). The retention mechanism of sulfonamides and quinolones on the stationary phase was also discussed. The results indicate that the stationary phase behaves as a reversed-phase packing and its separation selectivity is much better than that of not only Zorbax C₁₈ phase but also diamino-bonded phase. Some sulfonamides and quinolones were separated on the stationary phase, but the separation of sulfonamides is far more successful.

Reversed-phase systems for the separation of pentapeptides by high-performance liquid chromatography

Summary Reversed-phase systems using octyl modified silica as such and as a support for dynamically coated ion-exchangers, were investigated for their ability to separate pentapeptides. Normal reversed-phase adsorption with C-8 bonded silica in combination with citrate bufferpropanol-1 mixtures were found useful for the separation of a number of pentapeptides. The separation of pentapeptides differing widely in retention can be speeded up by applying an organic modifier and/or sodium citrate gradient. A solvent generated cation-exchange system with sodium dodecylsulfate as surfactant showed a high selectivity for the pentapeptides under investigation and is better for analytical purposes than the normal reversed-phase adsorption systems investigated. With respect to the detection of pentapeptides with fluorescamine, the use of dry pyridine as a basic buffer and as diluent for the fluorescamine was also investigated. Compared to the commonly used diluent acetone, pyridine is better when using acidic eluents of moderate buffer strength. At pH>6 no significant differences in sensitivity between acetone and pyridine could be noticed.     

Comparison of microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography with high-performance liquid chromatography for fingerprint analysis of resina draconis

Microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography (MEEKC) has been developed for fingerprint analysis of resina draconis, a substitute for sanguis draconis in the Chinese market. The microemulsion as the running buffer was made up of 3.3% (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 6.6% (w/v) n-butanol, 0.8% (w/v) n-octane, and 10 mmol/L sodium tetraborate buffer (pH 9.2), which was also used as the solvent for ultrasonic extraction of both water- and fat-soluble compounds in the traditional Chinese medicine samples. Four batches of resina draconis obtained from different pharmaceutical factories located in different geographic regions were used to establish the electrophoretic fingerprint. MEEKC was performed using a Beckman PACE/MDQ system equipped with a diode-array detector and with monitoring at 280 nm. The fingerprint of resina draconis comprised 27 common peaks within 100 min. The relative standard deviations of the relative migration time of these common peaks were less than 2.1%. Through repetitive injection of the sample solution six times in 24 h, all relative standard deviations of the migration time and peak area of loureirin A and loureirin B were less than 2.5 and 3.8%, which demonstrated that the method had good stability and reproducibility. The relative peak areas of these common peaks in the electropherograms of four batches of resina draconis were processed with two mathematical methods, the correlation coefficient and the interangle cosine, to valuate the similarity. The values of the similarity degree of all samples were more than 0.91, which showed resina draconis samples from different origins were consistent. On the other hand, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with photodiode-array detection was also applied to establish the fingerprint of resina draconis. The samples were separated with a LiChrospher C₁₈ column using acetonitrile (solvent A) and water containing 0.1% H₃PO₄ (solvent B) as the mobile phase in linear gradient elution mode at a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min and detection was at 280 nm. There were only 20 common peaks in the HPLC fingerprint, and the values of the similarity degree of all samples were also more than 0.91. Though the similarity results of fingerprint analysis seemed to be the same, MEEKC resulted in more common peaks and higher separation efficiency for a variety of polarities of the components than HPLC. So, MEEKC was more suitable for development of the fingerprint of resina draconis.     

High-performance liquid chromatographic determination of major organic acids in apple juices and ciders

Summary A reversed-phase high-pressure liquid chromatographic method is presented for the simultaneous separation and determination of malic, citric, lactic, succinic and ascorbic acids in apple juices and ciders. After filtration and/or degasification, the organic acids in the sample are separated on a LiChrosorb/C₁₈ column and quantified by using a rapid diode array detector. The method is considered to be a suitable choice for the accurate and precise determination (C.V. 5%) of these compounds.     

Analysis of triazine in water samples by solid-phase microextraction coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the determination of triazine is described. Carbowax/templated resin (CW/TPR, 50 μm), polydimethylsiloxane/divinylbenzene (PDMS/DVB, 60 μm), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS, 100 μm), and polyacrylate (PA, 85 μm) fibers were evaluated for extraction of the triazines. CW/TPR and PDMS/DVB fibers were selected for further study. Several parameters of the extraction and desorption procedure were studied and optimized (such as types of fibers, desorption mode, desorption time, compositions of solvent for desorption, soaking periods and the flow rate during desorption period, extraction time, temperature, pH, and ionic strength of samples). Both CW/TPR and PDMS/DVB fibers are acceptable; a simple calibration-curve method based on simple aqueous standards can be used. The linearity of this method for analyzing standard solution has been investigated over the range 5-1000 ng mL⁻¹ for both PDMS/DVB and CW/TPR fibers. All the correlation coefficients in the range 5-1000 ng mL⁻¹ were better than 0.995 except Simazine and Atratone by CW/TPR fiber. The R.S.D.s range from 4.4% to 8.8 % (PDMS/DVB fiber) and from 2.4% to 7.2% (CW/TPR fiber). Method-detection limits (MDL) are in the range 1.2-2.6 and 2.8-3.4 ng mL⁻¹ for the two fibers. These methods were applied to the determination of trazines in environmental water samples (lake water).     

Role of the organic solvent modifier in the reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography of polypeptides

Summary The retention behaviour of several polypeptide hormones on Bondapak C₁₈ columns has been examined using mobile phases of different acetonitrile percentage compositions containing 15 mM triethylammonium phosphate or 15 mM orthophosphoric acid buffers. Under these elution conditions, the capacity factors and the selectivity parameters of these polypeptide hormones show pronounced dependencies on the volume fraction of the organic solvent modifier. In the range 0–40% acetonitrile, the capacity factors were monotonously attenuated with increasing modifier percentages with the elution order essentially in accord with that hat anticipated for a reversed phase separation mode. At higher concentrations of acetonitrile, retention of the polypeptides to the octadecylsilica support progressively increased with elution order reversals indicative of a normal- or polarphase separation mode. These observations are discussed in terms of the interplay of hydrophobic and silanophilic interactions which occur between the ionised polypeptides and the stationary phase under these changing mobile phase conditions.High Performance Liquid Chromatography of Amino Acids, Peptides and Proteins, XXXII.

High-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection coupled to electrospray time-of-flight and ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry to identify phenolic compounds from a lemon verbena extract

High-performance liquid chromatography with diode array and electrospray ionization mass spectrometric detection was used to carry out the comprehensive characterization of a lemon verbena extract with demonstrated antioxidant and antiinflammatory activity. Two different MS techniques have been coupled to HPLC: on one hand, time-of-flight mass spectrometry, and on the other hand, tandem mass spectrometry on an ion-trap. The use of a small particle size C18 column (1.8 μm) provided a great resolution and made possible the separation of several isomers. The UV–visible spectrophotometry was used to delimit the class of phenolic compound and the accurate mass measurements on time-of-flight spectrometer enabled to identify the compounds present in the extract. Finally, the fragmentation pattern obtained in MS–MS experiments confirmed the proposed structures. This procedure was able to determine many well-known phenolic compounds present in lemon verbena such as verbascoside and its derivatives, diglucuronide derivatives of apigenin and luteolin, and eukovoside. Also gardoside, verbasoside, cistanoside F, theveside, campneoside I, chrysoeriol-7-diglucuronide, forsythoside A and acacetin-7-diglucuronide were found for the first time in lemon verbena.     

High-performance liquid chromatographic separation of polyolefin antioxidants and light-stabilisers

Summary A scheme was devised for the identification of 22 common antioxidants and light-stabilisers in polyolefins. The separation of these stabilisers was performed by isocratic reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography on a RP-18 column. Three different separation conditions have been used: the mobile phase composition was 100% acetonitrile (MeCN), 90/10 meCN/H₂O and 80/20 MeCN/H₂O. The UV₂₅₄/UV₂₈₀ ratio and the elution time of each stabiliser were determined for these three mobile phase compositions. The values of UV₂₅₄/UV₂₈₀ ratios may be used together with the retention time values for the identification of unknown stabilisers in polyolefin samples.     

Analysis of meloxicam by high-performance liquid chromatography with cloud-point extraction

A simple cloud-point extraction method for the determination of meloxicam in human serum was developed. Meloxicam was extracted from serum sample after adding 1 mL of 3% (v/v) Triton X-114 aqueous solution in the presence of 1M HCl and 60 mg NaCl. The meloxicam, present in the surfactant-rich phase, was enriched again with acetonitrile. Tenoxicam was used as the external standard. The separation was achieved on a C18 analytical column with a mobile phase consisting of aqueous acetic acid (1%, v/v) and acetonitrile (54:46, v/v). UV detection was performed at 360 nm. The response was linear over the range 45–2000 ng mL⁻¹ in human serum, and intra- and interday precisions of less than 15.0% were obtained. The relative error was within ±3.0%. The recoveries of meloxicam were larger than 92.0%. The method was compared with liquid–liquid extraction. The results showed that the new method has a considerable LOQ and higher recoveries but poorer precision than liquid–liquid extraction, which exhibited poor recoveries of less than 86.0%, precisions of less than 5.0% and relative errors of less than 7.0%. The method was used for the determination of meloxicam in healthy human volunteers.     

Determination of metoprolol in human plasma by column switching high-performance liquid chromatography

Summary Retention characteristics of metoprolol have been studied in reversed phase mode on RP2, RP8 and CN columns. The plots of retention time as a function of the acetonitrile content and of the ionic strength of the mobile phase permitted the choice of the best conditions to separate metoprolol from plasma components by switching of these three types of columns.Human plasma (0.5–1 ml) diluted with water is first injected on a RP2 column (25–40 m particle diameter, prepared by dry packing) and rinsed with water. The sample is then back eluted with acetonitrile-0.022 M acetate buffer (7525, v:v) and switched to a CN column (10 cm long, 5 m particle diameter). The heart cut of the eluate is selected and loaded on a RP8 analytical column (25 cm long, 5 m particle diameter) with acetonitrile-0.088 M acetate buffer (7525, v:v) as mobile phase.Auto-sampler and switching valves are actuated automatically by a computing integrator based on a fixed time schedule. The duration of one cycle is about 30 min, but the last analytical step is about 15 min and represents the time interval between two injections. Metoprolol, its alpha-hydroxy metabolite and the internal standard are detected by fluorescence (_ex= 225 nm; _em > 320 nm).Presented at the 14th International Symposium on Chromatography London, September, 1982
