In this work, a new physically adsorbed coating for capillary electrophoresis (CE) is presented. The coating is based on a N,N-dimethylacrylamide-ethylpyrrolidine methacrylate (DMA-EPyM) copolymer synthesized in our laboratory. The capillary coating is simple and easy to obtain as only requires flushing the capillary with a polymer aqueous solution for 2 min. It is shown that by using these coated capillaries the electrostatic adsorption of a group of basic proteins onto the capillary wall is significantly reduced allowing their analysis by CE. Moreover, the DMA-EPyM coating provides reproducible separations of the basic proteins with RSD values for migration times lower than 0.75% for the same day (n = 5) and lower than 3.90% for three different days (n = 15). Interestingly, the electrical charge of the coated capillary wall can be modulated by varying the pH of the running buffer which makes possible the analysis of basic and acidic proteins in the same capillary. The usefulness of this coating is further demonstrated via the reproducible separation of whey (i.e. acidic) proteins from raw milk. The coating protocol should be compatible with both CE in microchips and CE-MS of different types of proteins.  相似文献

A novel compound ?quaternarized piperazine [(N-methyl,N-4-iodobutyl)-N'-methylpiperazine] (QPzI)? for the coating of a silica capillary able to reduce or invert the electroosmotic flow (EOF) in capillary zone electrophoresis is reported. Unlike standard oligoamines (like spermine and tetraethylene pentamine) which are very efficient in quenching macromolecule interaction with the silica wall, but only in acidic pH ranges, QPzI acts all along the pH scale, including alkaline pH ranges. It is believed that QPzI behaves like a trifunctional derivative: it forms ionic bonds with dissociated silanols via its quaternary nitrogen, hydrogen bonds via its tertiary nitrogen and, most importantly, a covalent bond via alkylation of ionized silanols through the terminal iodine atom in the butyl chain. Excellent separations are obtained with a variety of organic compounds, such as aromatic carboxylic acids, tryptophan metabolites and arylalkanoic acids. Such separations could not be obtained in naked capillaries in the presence of oligoamines and on some occasions not even with capillaries coated with a covalent layer of neutral polymers. In separations taking place in alkaline media, QPzI is not added to the background electrolyte, but is used simply in the capillary pre-conditioning step, a unique feature strongly supporting the hypothesis of its covalent binding to the silica surface. In difficult separations, such as in the case of o-/p-OMe-phenylacetic acids or nicotinic/picolinic acid, which would not normally occur under standard conditions, it is believed that QPzI acts as a discriminator, thus playing an active role in the separation process, rather than simply modulating the EOF.  相似文献

We present the polymer poly-N-hydroxyethylacrylamide (PHEA) (polyDuramide) as a novel, hydrophilic, adsorbed capillary coating for electrophoretic protein analysis. Preparation of the PHEA coating requires a simple and fast (30 min) protocol that can be easily automated in capillary electrophoresis instruments. Over the pH range of 3-8.4, the PHEA coating is shown to reduce electroosmotic flow (EOF) by about 2 orders of magnitude compared to the bare silica capillary. In a systematic comparative study, the adsorbed PHEA coating exhibited minimal interactions with both acidic and basic proteins, providing efficient protein separations with excellent reproducibility on par with a covalent polyacrylamide coating. Hydrophobic interactions between proteins and a relatively hydrophobic poly-N,N-dimethylacrylamide (PDMA) adsorbed coating, on the other hand, adversely affected separation reproducibility and efficiency. Under both acidic and basic buffer conditions, the adsorbed PHEA coating produced an EOF suppression performance comparable to that of covalent polyacrylamide coating and superior to that of adsorbed PDMA coating. The protein separation performance in PHEA-coated capillaries was retained for 275 consecutive protein separation runs at pH 8.4, and for more than 800 runs at pH 4.4. The unique and novel combination of hydrophilicity and adsorptive coating ability of PHEA makes it a suitable wall coating for automated microscale analysis of proteins by capillary array systems.  相似文献

A novel noncovalent adsorbed coating for CE has been prepared and explored. This coating was based on quaternized poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate)-block-poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (QDED) triblock copolymer which was synthesized by atomic transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) in our laboratory. The polycationic polymer and the negatively charged fused-silica surface attracted each other through electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonds. It was demonstrated that the coated capillaries provided an electroosmotic flow with reverse direction, and the magnitude of the electroosmotic flow can be modulated by varying the molecular mass of poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) block and pH value of the buffer. The effects of the molecular mass of PDMAEMA block in QDED triblock copolymer and pH value of the buffer on the separation of basic proteins were investigated in detail. The triblock copolymer coatings showed higher separation efficiency, better migration time repeatability and would apply to wider range of pH than bare fused-silica capillary when used in separating proteins. Proteins from egg white were also separated through this QDED triblock copolymer-coated capillary. These results demonstrated that the QDED triblock copolymer coatings are suitable for analyzing biosamples.  相似文献

Many bioanalytical methods rely on electrophoretic separation of structurally labile and surface active biomolecules such as proteins and peptides. Often poor separation efficiency is due to surface adsorption processes leading to protein denaturation and surface fouling in the separation channel. Flexible and reliable approaches for preventing unwanted protein adsorption in separation science are thus in high demand. We therefore present new coating approaches based on an automated in‐capillary surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization process (covalent coating) as well as by electrostatically adsorbing a presynthesized polymer leading to functionalized molecular brushes. The electroosmotic flow was measured following each step of the covalent coating procedure providing a detailed characterization and quality control. Both approaches resulted in good fouling resistance against the four model proteins cytochrome c, myoglobin, ovalbumin, and human serum albumin in the pH range 3.4−8.4. Further, even samples containing 10% v/v plasma derived from human blood did not show signs of adsorbing to the coated capillaries. The covalent as well as the electrostatically adsorbed coating were both found to be stable and provided almost complete suppression of the electroosmotic flow in the pH range 3.4−8.4. The coating procedures may easily be integrated in fully automated capillary electrophoresis methodologies.  相似文献

Physically adsorbed (dynamic) polymeric wall coatings for microchannel electrophoresis have distinct advantages over covalently linked coatings. In order to determine the critical factors that control the formation of dynamic wall coatings, we have created a set of model polymers and copolymers based on N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMA) and N,N-diethylacrylamide (DEA), and studied their adsorption behavior from aqueous solution as well as their performance for microchannel electrophoresis of DNA. This study is revealing in terms of the polymer properties that help create an "ideal" wall coating. Our measurements indicate that the chemical nature of the coating polymer strongly impacts its electroosmotic flow (EOF) suppression capabilities. Additionally, we find that a critical polymer chain length is required for polymers of this type to perform effectively as microchannel wall coatings. The effective mobilities of double-stranded (dsDNA) fragments within dynamically coated capillaries were determined in order to correlate polymer hydrophobicity with separation performance. Even for dsDNA, which is not expected to be a strongly adsorbing analyte, wall coating hydrophobicity has a deleterious influence on separation performance.  相似文献

In order to accomplish the analysis of peptides and proteins by capillary electrophoresis, Lupamin, a high-molecular-weight linear polyvinylamine (PVAm) polymer, was introduced to modify the inner wall of fused-silica capillaries by physical absorption. Thanks to the high density of positively charged amino groups in Lupamin under acidic conditions, not only is a strong reversed electroosmotic flow generated in the coated capillary but the adsorption of analytes on the inner wall of the capillary is also efficiently eliminated. It has been demonstrated that the Lupamin-coated capillary can be used to advantage for the rapid analysis of amino acids, peptides, and proteins with good resolution and peak shape by capillary electrophoresis. In order to evaluate the basic feature of a Lupamin-coated capillary, electroosmotic flows generated by a Lupamin coating layer under different conditions including pH, coating time, concentration, and the composition of electrolytes on Lupamin-coated and uncoated capillaries were investigated. Furthermore, electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) detection was carried out for the analysis of amino acids and peptides.  相似文献

A brush-like copolymer consisting of poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate and N,N-dimethylacrylamide (PEGMA-DMA) was synthesized and used as a novel static physically adsorbed coating for protein separation by capillary electrophoresis for the first time, in order to stabilize electroosmotic flow (EOF) and suppress adsorption of proteins onto the capillary wall. Very stable and low EOF was obtained in PEGMA-DMA-coated capillary at pH 2.2-7.8. The effects of molar ratio of PEGMA to DMA, copolymer molecular mass, and pH on the separation of basic proteins were discussed. A comparative study of bare capillary with PEGMA-DMA-coated capillary for protein separation was also performed. The basic proteins could be well separated in PEGMA-DMA-coated capillary over the investigated pH range of 2.8-6.8 with good repeatability and high separation efficiency because the copolymer coating combines good protein-resistant property of PEG side chains with excellent coating ability of PDMA-contained backbone. Finally, the coating was successfully applied to the fast separation of other protein samples, such as protein mixture and egg white, which reveals that it is a potential coating for further proteomics analysis.  相似文献

The effect of different parameters controlling the characteristics of linear polyacrylamide coatings deposited on the inner wall of fused-silica capillaries and their influence on capillary electrophoresis (CE) performance of these coated columns is investigated. To carry out this study, a reproducible procedure to obtain capillaries with similar extent of modification of the surface silanols with 7-oct-1-enyltrimethoxisilane was first approached. Next the polymer attachment to the silica wall, via covalent linkage to the silyl reagent grafted onto the silica, was investigated. In this way, by using columns with a similar silylation extent, differences in CE performance observed among capillaries coated under diverse conditions could be assigned to the characteristics of the polyacrylamide layer. It is demonstrated that the characteristics and reproducibility of these polymeric coatings depend on the adequate control of both the temperature of polymerization and the degassing of the polymerizing dissolutions used. More interestingly, it is also demonstrated that the quantities of monomer (acrylamide), initiator (ammonium persulfate) and activator (N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine), and the ratio among them used in the preparation of the coating polymer have a large influence on the performance of CE columns. The optimum conditions for preparing the polyacrylamide coatings are discussed. The applicability of these linear polyacrylamide-coated capillaries to the separation of basic and acidic proteins in free zone CE is demonstrated. Besides, the use of these coated columns in capillary gel electrophoresis for the separation of DNA fragments is shown.  相似文献

We present cationized hydroxyethylcellulose (cat-HEC) synthesized in our laboratory as a novel physically adsorbed coating for CE. This capillary coating is simple and easy to obtain as it only requires flushing the capillary with polymer aqueous solution. A comparative study with and without polymers was performed. The adsorbed cat-HEC coating exhibited minimal interactions with basic proteins, providing efficient basic protein separations with excellent reproducibility. Under broad pHs, the amine groups are the main charged groups bringing about a global positive charge on the capillary wall. As a consequence, the cat-HEC coating produced an anodal EOF performance. A comparative study on the use of hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) and cat-HEC as physically adsorbed coatings for CE are also presented. The separation efficiency and analysis reproducibility proved that the cat-HEC polymer was efficient in suppressing the adsorption of basic proteins onto the silica capillary wall. The long-term stability of the cat-HEC coating in consecutive protein separation runs has demonstrated the suitability of the coating for high-throughput electrophoretic protein separations.  相似文献

In this work, the suitability of a new polymer family has been investigated as capillary coatings for the analysis of peptides and basic proteins by CE. This polymer family has been designed to minimize or completely prevent protein–capillary wall interactions and to modify the EOF. These coating materials are linear polymeric chains bearing as side cationizable moiety a dentronic triamine derived from N,N,N’,N’‐tetraethyldiethylenetriamine (TEDETA), which is linked to the backbone through a spacer (unit labeled as TEDETAMA). Four different polymers have been prepared and evaluated: a homopolymer which comprised only of those cationizable repetitive units of TEDETAMA, and three copolymers that randomly incorporate TEDETAMA together with neutral hydrosoluble units of N‐(2‐hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide (HPMA) at different molar percentages (25:75, 50:50 and 75:25). It has been demonstrated that the composition of the copolymers influences the EOF and therefore the separation of the investigated biopolymers. Among the novel polymers studied, poly‐(TEDETAMA‐co‐HPMA) 50:50 copolymer was successfully applied as coating material of the inner capillary surface in CE‐UV and CE‐MS, providing EOF reversing together with fast and efficient baseline separation of peptides and basic proteins. Finally, the feasibility of the polymer‐coated capillary was shown through the analysis of lysozyme in a cheese sample.  相似文献

Determination of human serum protein by molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) derivatized inner wall of capillary coupling of capillary‐electrophoresis was successfully developed. The vinyl groups were introduced onto the silica by immobilization of ‐methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane. Then the MIP coating was copolymerized and anchored onto the surface of the silica. The other preparation conditions, such as monomer concentration, temperature, and time of polymerization, were systematically studied. The obtained MIP‐derivatized capillary was applied to capillary electrophoresis, which was used for the separation and determination of human serum protein. The optimization of the experimental conditions was determined by evaluating various controlling factors: running buffer pH = 9.6, 0.1 mol L‐1 boric acid‐sodium borate, separation voltage 30 kV, temperature 25 °C, detected wavelength 192 nm.  相似文献

A buffer consisting of tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, 2-(N-moropholino)ethanesulfonic acid (Mes) and EDTA with constant ion strength was used to investigate the effect of buffer pH on the dynamic coating behavior of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) for DNA separation. The atomic force microscopy (AFM) image illustrated that PNIPAM in lower-pH buffer was much more efficient in covering a silica wafer than that in higher-pH buffer. The coating performance of PNIPAM was also quantitatively analyzed by Fourier transform IR attenuated total reflectance spectroscopy and by measuring the electroosmotic flow (EOF). These results indicated that the stability of the dynamic coating was dependent on the pH of the sieving matrix and was improved by reducing the pH to the weak-acid range. The lower pH of the sieving buffer may induce the polymer more efficiently to adsorb on the capillary wall to suppress EOF and DNA–capillary wall interaction for DNA separation. The enhanced dynamic coating capacity of PNIPAM in lower-pH buffer may be attributed to the hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl groups of the silica surface and the oxygen atom of the carbonyl groups of PNIPAM.  相似文献

In this work, a new copolymer synthesized in our laboratory is used as physically adsorbed coating for capillary electrophoresis (CE). The copolymer is composed of ethylpyrrolidine methacrylate (EPyM) and methylmethacrylate (MMA). The capillary coating is easily obtained by simply flushing into the tubing an EPyM/MMA solution. It is demonstrated that the composition of the EPyM/MMA copolymer together with the selection of the background electrolyte (BGE) and pH allow tailoring the direction and magnitude of the electroosmotic flow (EOF) in CE. It is also shown that the EOF obtained for the EPyM/MMA-coated capillaries was reproducible in all cases independently on pH or polymer composition. Thus, RSD values lower than 1.9% (n=5) for the same capillary and day were obtained for the migration time, while the repeatability interdays (n=5) was observed to provide RSD values lower than 0.5%. The stability of the coating procedure was also tested between capillaries (n=3) obtaining RSD values lower than 0.6%. It is demonstrated with several examples that the use of EPyM/MMA coatings in CE can drastically reduce the analysis time and/or to improve the resolution of the separations. It is shown that EPyM/MMA-coated capillaries allow the separation of basic proteins by reducing their adsorption onto the capillary wall. Also, EPyM/MMA-coated capillaries provide a faster separation of samples containing simultaneously positive and negative analytes. Moreover, it is demonstrated that the use of EPyM/MMA-coated capillaries can incorporate an additional chromatographic-like interaction with nucleosides that highly improves the separation of this group of solutes.  相似文献

The use of a commercial, silver-coated, piezoelectric quartz crystal as a disposable, low cost and reliable immunosensor is presented. The protection of the silver electrode from undesirable oxidation was achieved by polystyrene or carboxy-poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-COOH) modification. In addition to serving as protection for the electrode, polymer films provided a substrate for antibody immobilization by either physical adsorption or covalent linkage. Polystyrene modification showed an additional advantage of improvement of surface smoothness. The atomic force microscope (AFM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to evaluate the morphologies of polymer films obtained by dip or drop coating techniques. It was found that drop coating provided more significant improvement in surface smoothness than dip coating, and the resulting sensor surfaces were more suitable for in situ liquid phase assay. Although PVC-COOH-modified sensors were not suitable for liquid phase assay because of the high surface roughness, the covalent linkages (amide bonds) between antibodies and -COOH groups in the polymer film offered better sensor performance in ex situ assay in terms of a higher antibody binding capacity and better antigen detection sensitivity.  相似文献

A cationic cyclodextrin was used as dynamic coating for the capillary electrophoresis of a model mixture of proteins (i.e., ubiquitin, α‐lactoglobulin, cytochrome‐c, and myoglobin) as positively charged species in a fused silica capillary. An interesting feature of the coating is that by simple adjustment of the concentration of cyclodextrin added into the background electrolyte, a neutral or positively charged surface, which was beneficial in preventing protein adsorption at the inner capillary wall surface, was obtained. This is the first demonstration of a dynamic coating that yielded a neutral surface for protein separations in capillary electrophoresis. Based on electro‐osmotic flow measurements, addition of 0.05 to 0.10 mg/mL quaternary β‐cyclodextrin in a low pH electrolyte resulted in a neutral or positive surface (undetectable to very slow anodic electro‐osmotic flow). The coating approach afforded the electrophoretic separation of the mixture of proteins at positive polarity with good repeatability and separation performance.  相似文献

A simple coating technique by using uncross-linked dextran has been developed for fused-silica capillaries to be used in capillary electrophoresis of basic proteins. The capillaries were first silanized with a heterobifunctional silane (gamma-aminopropyltriethoxylsilane), which served as a coupling agent between the capillary inner wall and the polysaccharide coating. Dextran of high molecular mass (about 70 kDa) was activated with 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole. Then the activated dextran was coupled to the primary amino groups that were anchored onto the inner wall of the silanized capillaries. The residual reactive groups on the dextran were further substituted by neutral functions in a coupling reaction with excess ethanolamine. By using dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) rather than aqueous buffer as the reaction medium, the extent of substitution was improved by minimizing the residual reactive groups at the surface. Since they are ionogenic, the electrosmotic flow in the system is relatively low. The chemically bound dextran coating showed good reproducibility and stability. In electrophoretic experiments basic proteins were separated with high efficiency by use of the dextran-coated fused-silica capillary columns. The main advantage of the method described here is that both polysaccharide activation and amine-coupling reactions were carried out under mild conditions at room temperature without catalysts. For this reason, the method is recommended to coat the inner wall of microfluidic separation channels which would not tolerate a harsh treatment.  相似文献

Cosmetics that have medicinal effects, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, have become a daily care routine consumption. The peptide additives, such as carnosine and nicotinamide, were frequently used to realize these medicinal effects. To accomplish rapid and effective quantitation of carnosine and niacinamide in cosmetics, capillary zone electrophoresis was executed in cyclic olefin copolymer microchips having both dynamic and static coatings. The static coating of cyclic olefin copolymer microchannel was constructed from bovine serum albumin adsorption, immobilization, and active site closure, while the dynamic coating was formed by adding surfactant into running buffer of capillary zone electrophoresis. The static coating can improve the hydrophilicity of cyclic olefin copolymer surface and avoid nonspecific peptide adsorption. The dynamic coating of sodium dodecyl sulfate in running buffer proved to be useful in flow velocity adjustment and the column efficiency enhancement in the capillary zone electrophoresis separation channel of the cyclic olefin copolymer microchip device. A separation resolution up to 4.24 on the mixture of carnosine and nicotinamide was obtained. Moreover, an analysis method was established and applied to simultaneous carnosine and nicotinamide determination in a liquid whitening essence and a solid antiglycation pill, and the results were verified by comparison with high-performance liquid chromatography methods, indicating its potential in complex sample analysis.  相似文献

We have recently described [1] a fast and simple method for the "adsorbed static" coating of capillaries in capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) with epoxy-poly(dimethylacrylamide) (EPDMA). Protein CZE peaks in the EPDMA-coated capillaries exhibited a peak asymmetry similar to that obtained in capillaries with "covalent static" coating of polyacrylamide, suggesting a similar degree of adsorption of the protein onto the coating [2]. Instability of such coating at very low ionic strength and its stripping from the capillary in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) also indicated a hydrophilic bonding of EPDMA to the silanol surface of the capillary, while its stripping in the CZE of "carboxylate-modified" polystyrene suggested a competition between carboxylate and EPDMA for the hydrophilic bonds to silanol. To test those propositions, a number of EPDMA-derived coating agents with increased hydrophilicity were synthesized. Of a number of the hydrophilic coating agents tested (Table 1) only two, 2% hydrolyzed EPDMA (HPDMA) hydrolyzed in sulfuric acid to effect the conversion of the epoxy groups to diols (Table 1, No. 38), and 20% EPDMA (Table 1, No. 44) exhibited for representative proteins a decreased peak asymmetry and width while the stability of the suppression of electroosmotic flow (EOF), and the stability of mobility in consecutive CZE runs was reduced relative to EPDMA. Coating agents which were more highly hydrophilic than those two (Table 1, No. 49) or less hydrophilic than 2% EPDMA (Table 1, Nos. 57, 53, 46) provided no stable static coating.  相似文献
