Enrichment and separation of acidic and basic proteins using the centrifugal ultrafiltration followed by nanoparticle-filled capillary electrophoresis

This report describes a method for enrichment and separation of acidic and basic proteins using the centrifugal ultrafiltration followed by nanoparticle-filled capillary electrophoresis. To improve stacking and separation efficiencies of proteins, the separation buffer containing 1.6% poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) was added with gold nanoparticles (AuNP), poly(ethylene oxide), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, and poly(vinyl alcohol). As a result, the use of AuNP as additives exhibited better efficiency in separation, stacking, and analysis time. Even for large-volume samples (110 nL), the separation efficiencies of acidic and basic proteins remained greater than 10(4) and 10(5) plates/m, respectively. To further enhance detection sensitivity, protein samples were enriched using the centrifugal ultrafiltration, followed by our proposed stacking method. The detection sensitivity was improved up to 314-fold compared to normal hydrodynamic injection. Additionally, the limits of detection at a signal-to-noise of 3 for most proteins were down to nanomolar range. We have validated the application of our method by means of analyses of 50 nM lysozyme in saliva samples. The proposed method was also successfully applied to the analyses of egg-white proteins, which have large differences in molecular weight and pI.     

Cellulose based macromolecular chelator having pyrocatechol as an anchored ligand: synthesis and applications as metal extractant prior to their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry

Pyrocatechol is immobilized on cellulose via ---NH---CH₂---CH₂---NH---SO₂---C₆H₄---N=N--- linker and the resulting macromolecular chelator characterized by IR, TGA, CPMAS ¹³C NMR and elemental analyses. It has been used for enrichment of Cu(II), Zn(II), Fe(III), Ni(II), Co(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) prior to their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). The pH ranges for quantitative sorption (98.0–99.4%) are 4.0–7.0, 5.0–6.0, 3.0–4.0, 5.0–7.0, 5.0–8.0, 7.0–8.0 and 4.0–5.0, respectively. The desorption was found quantitative with 0.5 mol dm⁻³ HCl/HNO₃ (for Pb). The sorption capacity of the matrix for the seven metal ions has been found in the range 85.3–186.2 μmol g⁻¹. The optimum flow rate of metal ion solution for quantitative sorption of metal onto pyrocatechol functionalized cellulose as determined by column method, is 2–6 cm³ min⁻¹, whereas for desorption it is 2–4 cm³ min⁻¹. The tolerance limits for NaCl, NaBr, NaI, NaNO₃, Na₂SO₄, Na₃PO_4, humic acid, EDTA, ascorbic acid, citric acid, sodium tartrate, Ca(II) and Mg(II) in the sorption of all the seven metal ions are reported. Ascorbic acid is tolerable up to 0.8 mmol dm⁻³ with Cu and Pb where as sodium tartrate does not interfere up to 0.6 mmol dm⁻³ with Pb. There is no interference of NaBr, NaCl and NaNO₃ up to a concentration of 0.5 mol dm⁻³, in the sorption of Cu(II), Cd(II) and Fe(III) on to the chelating cellulose matrix The preconcentration factors are between 75 and 300 and t_1/2 values ≤5 min for all the metal ions. Simultaneous sorption of Cu, Zn, Ni and Co is possible at pH 5.0 if their total concentration does not exceed lowest sorption capacity. The present matrix coupled with FAAS has been used to enrich and determine the seven metal ions in river and tap water samples (relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) 1.05–7.20%) and synthetic certified water sample SLRS-4 (NRC, Canada) with R.S.D. 2.03%. The cobalt present in pharmaceutical vitamin tablets was also preconcentrated on the modified cellulose and determined by FAAS (R.S.D. 1.87%).
