Borate-containing background electrolytes to improve CE separation in bare capillaries

The paper describes how borate-containing BGEs modify ζ-potential and so EOF in bare fused silica capillaries. This surface modification can be used to suppress EOF and improve the separation performance of CZE including capillary sieving electrophoresis (CSE). Boric acid forms complexes with polysaccharides used as sieving matrices in CSE and other compounds containing hydroxyl groups, including polyol bases such as Tris, triethanolamine, and Bis-Tris propane. High concentration of boric acid in BGEs leads to a strong interaction of boric acid with the silica surface of the capillary wall and this suppresses or even completely eliminates ζ-potential and EOF. Using a polyol base with several charge-carrying amino groups, such as Bis-Tris propane, can actually reverse EOF. We demonstrate the use of various borate-containing BGEs in bare fused silica capillaries for size-separation of DNA fragments, size-separation of proteins by SDS CSE, and also by CZE in the absence of any sieving matrix.     

Analysis of calcitonin and its analogues by capillary zone electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Capillary zone electrophoretic (CZE) separations and mass spectrometric analysis of salmon calcitonin and related analogues were performed to generate electrophoresis and mass fingerprints for quality control of the recombinant polypeptide pharmaceutical salmon calcitonin. The calcitonins and their corresponding tryptic digests were successfully separated by CZE at low pH in fused silica capillaries dynamically modified with poly-cationic polymers. The poly-cationic modified inner surface of the fused silica capillaries generated a strong anionic electroosmotic flow (EOF). Analytes of negative, neutral, and positive charge were all swept through the capillary toward the positive electrode. Compared to Polybrene-coated capillaries, capillaries coated with PEI showed a markedly slower but much more stable electroosmotic flow. The migration order of the analytes was predicted by comparing approximate values of the charge to (molecular mass)2/3 ratios. The predicted migration order was confirmed by off-line analysis of CZE fractions with matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS).     

Joule heating effects on separation efficiency in capillary zone electrophoresis with an initial voltage ramp

An analytical model is developed to quantify the Joule heating effects on the separation efficiency in CZE with an initial voltage ramp. This model considers the temporal variations of nonuniform temperature and flow fields in the course of voltage ramping. The temperature dependence of electrical conductivity, dynamic viscosity, and mass density of the fluid is also taken into account. We demonstrate that the application of an initial voltage ramp delays the development of pressure-driven flows induced passively by the axial temperature gradients. The thermal dispersion is thus significantly reduced, resulting in a higher theoretical plate number in CZE. Such improvement in the separation efficiency is apparent in noncoated capillaries at high electric fields with an appropriate voltage ramp-up time. These predictions are consistent with previous observations in both aqueous and nonaqueous CZE that took place in uncoated capillaries. In coated capillaries where the EOF is suppressed, however, our model predicts a lower plate number in the presence of an initial voltage ramp.     

Determination of adenosine deaminase activity in human erythrocytes by on-column capillary isotachophoresis-capillary zone electrophoresis in the presence of electroosmotic flow

Transient capillary isotachophoresis (CITP)-capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) in presence of electroosmotic flow (EOF) was utilized for the measurement of adenosine deaminase activity in human erythrocytes. Phosphates, dominant anions of the sample matrix, were used as leading ions for transient isotachophoresis, and borates (0.3 M, pH 10) were used as terminating ions and background electrolyte for CZE. Final experimental conditions made it possible to inject 70% of the total capillary volume (1.45 microL) with the sample. Enzymatic conversion products (inosine and hypoxanthine), present in the sample in the low-micromolar range, were determined using optimized conditions. The limit of detection was 28 nM using UV detection at 202 nm. The presented data shows that CITP-CZE can be performed in uncoated capillaries in the presence of strong EOF.     

Modeling the zeta potential of silica capillaries in relation to the background electrolyte composition

A theoretical relation between the zeta potential of silica capillaries and the composition of the background electrolyte (BGE) is presented in order to be used in capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). This relation is derived on the basis of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation and considering the equilibrium dissociation of silanol groups at the capillary wall as the mechanism of charge generation. The resulting model involves the relevant physicochemical parameters of the BGE-capillary interface. Special attention is paid to the characterization of the BGE, which can be either salt or/and buffer solutions. The model is successfully applied to electroosmotic flow (EOF) experimental data of different aqueous solutions, covering a wide range of pH and ionic strength. Numerical predictions are also presented showing the capability of the model to quantify the EOF, the control of which is relevant to improve analyte separation performance in CZE.     

Decreased protein peak asymmetry and width due to static capillary coating with hydrophilic derivatives of polydimethylacrylamide

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.     

Electroosmotic flow changes due to interactions of background electrolyte counter-ions with polyethyleneimine coating in capillary zone electrophoresis of proteins

The properties and behavior of polyethyleneimine (PEI) covalently coated capillaries with respect to different background electrolytes used in capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) are described. The coating stability and changes of inner surface charge in the capillary were followed by measurement of electroosmotic flow (EOF). Interest was focused mainly on conjugate bases of carboxylic acids as anionic background electrolyte components (acetate, citrate, malate, malonate, tartrate, and succinate). An interesting phenomenon was observed in PEI-coated capillaries: The direction (and the magnitude) of EOF depends on the composition of the background electrolyte and at a certain pH it can undergo reversible change. Ionic complex formation was suggested as a hypothesis to explain this behavior. With this knowledge, the PEI-coated capillary was used for the separation of basic proteins in the above-mentioned background electrolytes. A standard protein mixture of cytochrome c, ribonuclease A, and lysozyme at a concentration of 0.25 mg/mL each was chosen as model sample.     

Rapid separation of protein isoforms by capillary zone electrophoresis with new dynamic coatings

Many cellular functions are regulated through protein isoforms. Changes in the expression level or regulatory dysfunctions of isoforms often lead to developmental or pathological disorders. Isoforms are traditionally analyzed using techniques such as gel- or capillary-based isoelectric focusing. However, with proper electro-osmotic flow (EOF) control, isoforms with small pI differences can also be analyzed using capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). Here we demonstrate the ability to quickly resolve isoforms of three model proteins (bovine serum albumin, transferrin, alpha1-antitrypsin) in capillaries coated with novel dynamic coatings. The coatings allow reproducible EOF modulation in the cathodal direction to a level of 10(-9) m2V(-1)s(-1). They also appear to inhibit protein adsorption to the capillary wall, making the isoform separations highly reproducible both in peak areas and apparent mobility. Isoforms of transferrin and alpha1-antitrypsin have been implicated in several human diseases. By coupling the CZE isoform separation with standard affinity capture assays, it may be possible to develop a cost-effective analytical platform for clinical diagnostics.     

Validation of CE modeling with a contactless conductivity array detector

Dynamic computer simulation data are compared for the first time with CE data obtained with a laboratory made system comprising an array of 8 contactless conductivity detectors (C⁴Ds). The experimental setup featured a 50 μm id linear polyacrylamide (LPA) coated fused‐silica capillary of 70 cm length and a purpose built sequential injection analysis manifold for fluid handling of continuous or discontinuous buffer configurations and sample injection. The LPA coated capillary exhibits a low EOF and the manifold allows the placement of the first detector at about 2.7 cm from the sample inlet. Agreement of simulated electropherograms with experimental data was obtained for the migration and separation of cationic and anionic analyte and system zones in CZE configurations in which EOF and other column properties are constant. For configurations with discontinuous buffer systems, including ITP, experimental data obtained with the array detector revealed that the EOF is not constant. Comparison of simulation and experimental data of ITP systems provided the insight that the EOF can be estimated with an ionic strength dependent model similar to that previously used to describe EOF in fused‐silica capillaries dynamically double coated with Polybrene and poly(vinylsulfonate). For the LPA coated capillaries, the electroosmotic mobility was determined to be 17‐fold smaller compared to the case with the charged double coating. Simulation and array detection provide means for quickly investigating electrophoretic transport and separation properties. Without realistic input parameters, modeling alone is not providing data that match CE results.     

Intrinsic charge ladders of a monoclonal antibody in hydroxypropylcellulose-coated capillaries

Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) has been used to resolve the charge heterogeneity of an intact ( approximately 150 kDa) monoclonal IgG antibody (mAb). Although this microheterogeneity can also be observed by isoelectric focusing, CZE allows the net charge of each variant to be measured as a function of pH and other solution conditions. Separation was achieved in both borate and Tris run buffers using capillaries that had been statically coated with hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC). The HPC coating makes inadvertent chromatographic retention of the mAb undetectably small and decreases electroosmotic flow (EOF) to approximately 10(-5) cm(2) V(-1) s(-1), with reasonable stability over dozens of runs under the conditions tested (pH 8.5 and 9.0 for each buffer). We also describe a novel means of measuring small, positive EOF coefficients and larger, negative net mobilities in the same run. This allows determination of accurate electrophoretic mobilities despite variations in EOF. The resolved mAb charge variants (which most likely result from deamidation or partial truncation) constitute what we call an "intrinsic" charge ladder. As with conventional charge ladders formed by deliberate modification of a homogeneous protein, net charge is obtained by extrapolating a plot of electrophoretic mobility versus (assumed) incremental charge difference. At a given pH, the mAb is more negatively charged in borate than in Tris, reflecting specific binding of the B(OH)(4)(-) anion. We also report hydrodynamic radii calculated from the slopes of these plots.
