Multidimensional high performance liquid chromatography--capillary electrophoresis separation of a protein digest: an update

The trypsin digest of a mixture of two proteins, namely cytochrome c and myoglobin, was first separated in the first dimension by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Fractions from the HPLC were collected every 30s with the aid of a fraction collector into a 96-well microtiter plate. After concentration, all the collected fractions were analyzed simultaneaosly in the second dimension by a 96-array capillary electrophoresis system. The labeled peptides were detected by laser-induced fluorescence. An internal standard, allura red, was added to all the fractions, prior to capillary electrophoretic analysis. The internal standard serves two functions, migration time correction and signal intensity correction. The data are presented in two different formats, as an electropherogram of all the fractions and in a two-dimensional (2-D) format. The 2-D plot of the data shows the density of each spot, which corresponds to the concentration of the migrating peptides. The total experimental time for the HPLC and capillary electrophoretic analyses ist less than 1 h, which ist much faster than using 2-D slab-gel electrophoresis or single-capillary capillary electrophoresis.

Synthesis and biological activities of hydroxyl-protected fluorine-containing 4,4-dihydroxylmethyl-2-aryl-iminothiazolidines

Eight novel compounds were synthesized by a facile and mild method with high yields, and the structures of all the compounds were characterized by ¹H NMR IR mass and high resolution mass spectroscopy. Their inhibitory activity against insect-flight and trehalase in vitro were screened. Some target compounds have moderate inhibitory activity against trehalase, and show inhibition action to insect-flight.     

6-Oxy-(N-succinimidyl acetate)-9-(2'-methoxycarbonyl)fluorescein as a new fluorescent labeling reagent for aliphatic amines in environmental and food samples using high-performance liquid chromatography

6-Oxy-(N-succinimidyl acetate)-9-(2'-methoxycarbonyl)fluorescein (SAMF), a new fluorescein-based amine-reactive fluorescent probe was well designed, synthesized and used as a pre-column derivatizing reagent for the determination of aliphatic amines in HPLC. It exhibited relatively pH-independent fluorescence (pH 4-9) and excellent photostability. The derivatization was performed at room temperature in 6min. On a C18 column, the derivatives of SAMF with eight aliphatic amines were baseline separated in 28 min with a mobile phase of methanol-water (57:43, v/v) containing 10 mmol l(-1) pH 5.0, H3Cit3-NaOH buffer. With fluorescent detection at lambda(ex)/lambda(em) = 484/516 nm, the detection limit could reach 2-320 fmol (signal-to-noise = 3), which was equivalent to or better than the detection limits obtained from other analytical methods of aliphatic amines. The proposed method has been applied to the determination of the aliphatic amines in environmental and food samples such as lake water, red wine, white wine, and cheese with satisfying recoveries varying from 95 to 106%.     

Study on the interaction between nucleic acids and cationic surfactants

The interactions of nucleic acids and cationic surfactants (cetylpyridine bromide (CPB) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTMAB)) in aqueous solution have been studied using the techniques of resonance light scattering (RLS) spectroscopy, the absorption spectroscopy, zeta potential assay and NMR assignment measurement. It is considered that CPB or CTMAB can assemble on the surface of nucleic acid via electrostatic and hydrophobic forces, which results in the formation of large associate of nucleic acid-cationic surfactant and RLS enhancement of nucleic acid. Besides these forces, the pi-pi stacking force between CPB and nucleic acid also exists in the associate. In comparison with CTMAB, CPB has larger enhancement on RLS of nucleic acid, which is attributed to that the enhancement of the former is only due to the absorption of the bases of nucleic acid, while the enhancement of the latter is own to the synergetic resonance caused by the absorption of both bases of nucleic acid and the pyridyl in CPB. These results have important implication for understanding the influence of surfactants on nucleic acid functionality in life science.     

Structure-direct assembly of hexagonal pencil-like ZnO group whiskers

Hexagonal ZnO group whiskers synthesized from Zn(NH₃)₄²⁺ precursor at 145°C in a structure-directing template solvent (2.5% v/v alcohol) show strong photoluminescence at 409 and 420 nm. FE-SEM and TEM observation reveals that the ZnO group whiskers consist of uniform pencil-like whiskers with the diameter of around 1.5 μm and the length of up to 6 μm.
