The present work illustrates possibilities of column-coupling capillary electrophoresis (CE-CE) combined with chiral selector (2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin, HP-beta-CD) and fiber-based diode array detection (DAD) for the direct quantitative enantioselective determination of trace drug (amlodipine, AML) in biological multicomponent ionic matrices (human urine). Capillary isotachophoresis (ITP) served as an ideal injection technique in CE-CE. Moreover, the ITP provided an effective on-line sample pretreatment prior to the capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) separation. Enhanced separation selectivity due to the combination of different separation mechanisms (ITP vs. CZE-HP-beta-CD) enabled to obtain pure zones of the analytes, suitable for their detection and quantitation. The DAD, unlike single wavelength UV detection, enabled to characterize the purity (i.e. spectral homogeneity) of the analytes zones. A processing of the raw DAD spectra (the background correction and smoothing procedure) was essential when a trace analyte signal was evaluated. Obtained results indicated pure (i.e. spectrally homogeneous) zones of interest confirming effective ITP-CZE separation process. The proposed ITP-CZE-DAD method was characterized by favorable performance parameters (sensitivity, linearity, precision, recovery, accuracy, robustness, selectivity) and successfully applied to an enantioselective pharmacokinetic study of AML.  相似文献

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is an extremely sensitive technique, which has been used in the clinical laboratory for almost 10 yr. The components of CE instrumentation are described, as are injection modes, buffers, and effects of electroosmotic flow. The modes of separation used in CE, namely, capillary zone electrophoresis, capillary isoelectric focusing, capillary isotachophoresis, and micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography, are explained. References for 26 different clinical applications of CE are included, among them assays that are used routinely as well as niche assays for specialized applications of CE. Verification of CE assays, current instrumentation, and future development of CE in the clinical laboratory are addressed.  相似文献

Closely related peptides such as neurotensin and angiotensin analogues were separated by capillary zone electrophoresis using a nonionic surfactant, sucrose monododecanoate, as a micelle forming reagent. These peptides were detected by an on-line coupled mass spectrometer using an electrospray ionization interface. However, the presence of the micelles in the separation solution drastically reduced the sensitivity of the mass spectrometer. Therefore, a partial filling technique was employed to prevent the micelles from entering the mass spectrometric interface. A part of the capillary from the injection end was filled with the micellar solution in this technique. Analytes passed through the micellar zone during the electrophoresis and when the separated analytes reached the detection end of the capillary, the micellar zone was still behind the analyte zones, because the nonionic surfactant moved very slowly in acidic conditions. Thus the technique was very useful for mass spectrometric detection for CE when the micellar solution was employed for separation. The optimization of separation and detection conditions was investigated.  相似文献

A novel two-dimensional (2D) separation method, which hyphenated micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC) and capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE), was developed for analysis of flavonoids in Leonurus cardiaca. The Leonurus cardiaca sample was separated and purified in first dimension by MEKC. Then only a selected portion of the first dimension separation was transferred into the second dimension by pressure. Finally, the zone of flavonoids was separated by CZE. As the key to successful hyphenation of MEKC and CZE, an analyte focusing by micelle collapse (AFMC) concentration method was employed between the two dimensions to release analytes from the micelle interior to a liquid zone and to overcome the sample zone diffusion caused by mobilization pressure. The whole heart-cut 2D separation process can be performed in a conventional CE analyzer. The relative standard deviation of peak height, peak area and migration time were in the range of 2.3-4.2%, 1.5-3.8% and 3.6-5.5%, respectively, and detection limits (S/N=3) were 15-55 ng/mL. The new methodology was applied with success for the flavonoids separation of Leonurus cardiaca.  相似文献

The application of capillary electrophoresis (CE) methods in forensic toxicology for the determination of illicit and/or misused drugs in biological samples is reviewed in the present paper. Sample pretreatments and direct injection modes used in CE for analysis of drugs in biological fluids are briefly described. Besides, applications of separation methods based on capillary zone electrophoresis or micellar electrokinetic chromatography with UV absorbance detection to (i) analysis of drugs of abuse, (ii) analysis of other drugs and toxicants of potential forensic interest and (iii) for metabolism studies are reviewed. Also, alternative CE methods are briefly discussed, including capillary isotachophoresis and separation on mixed polymer networks. High sensitivity detection methods used for forensic drug analysis in biological samples are then presented, particularly those based on laser induced fluorescence. A glimpse of the first examples of application of CE–mass spectrometry in forensic toxicology is finally given.  相似文献

The ability to collect sufficient quantities of analytes from capillary electrophoresis for subsequent analyses is demonstrated. Fractions collected have been analyzed using the following techniques: capillary electrophoresis, mass spectrometry, and protein sequencing. Fractions can be collected directly into small volumes of buffer or directly onto membrane surfaces. Relevant parameters such as capillary diameter, mass loading, and separation parameters are addressed.  相似文献

Separation of peptides and proteins by capillary zone electrophoresis suffers from the interaction of these solutes with the capillary wall which results in the formation of broad peaks and low resolution. To minimize the protein/peptide-capillary wall interaction we tried to use Pluronic F127, a triblock copolymer of the general formula (polyethylene oxide)(x)(polypropylene oxide)(y)(polyethylene oxide)(z) when x=106, y=70 and z=106 which can be considered a surfactant capable of self-association both into isotropic and anisotropic gels. The analytes studied were enzymatic digests (obtained by trypsin or pepsin treatment) of insoluble matrix proteins from avian eggshell. The best separations were obtained by a system exploiting 10% Pluronic F127 in 20 mmol/l phosphate buffer, pH 2.5. Electrophoretic peptide profiles obtained were very complex owing to the complicated nature of the samples (the exact composition of the proteinous insoluble part of the eggshell is still unknown). The separation in phosphate buffer only offered complex maps of incompletely resolved peaks. The use of Pluronic F127 distinctly improved the separation with a considerably better resolution regarding both the number of peaks obtained and the quality of the separation.  相似文献

A novel two-dimensional (2D) separation system for proteins was reported. In the system, a piece of dialysis hollow-fiber membrane was employed as the interface for on-line combination of capillary isoelectric focusing (CIEF) and capillary non-gel sieving electrophoresis (CNGSE). The system is similar equivalent to two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D PAGE), by transferring the principal of 2D PAGE separation to the capillary format. Proteins were focused and separated in first dimension CIEF based on their differences in isoelectric points (pIs). Focused protein zones was transferred to the dialysis hollow-fiber interface, where proteins hydrophobically complexed with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The negatively charged proteins were electromigrated and further resolved by their differences in size in the second dimension CNGSE, in which dextran solution, a replaceable sieving matrix instead of cross-linked polyacrylamide gel was employed for size-dependent separation of proteins. The combination of the two techniques was attributed to high efficiency of the dialysis membrane interface. The feasibility and the orthogonality of the combined CIEF-CNGSE separation technique, an important factor for maximizing peak capacity or resolution elements, were demonstrated by examining each technique independently for the separation of hemoglobin and protein mixtures excreting from lung cancer cells of rat. The 2D separation strategy was found to greatly increase the resolving power and overall peak capacity over those obtained for either dimension alone.  相似文献

The development of on-line sample stacking techniques for enhancing limits of detection of neutral analytes in micellar capillary electrophoresis (MCE) has recently gained much attention. Utilizing high-conductivity sample matrices to invoke sample stacking is promising, but requires the limited use of sample solubilizing agents such as alcohols in the sample matrix. In this study, we show how simple replacement of the sample solvent (methanol) with a solution of sulfated β-cyclodextrin (sβ-CD) allows a significant increase in the sensitivity of detection of model hydrophobic analytes. This increase in sensitivity is accompanied by significant peak sharpening. Sulfated CDs in the sample matrix allow for effective solubilization of hydrophobic analytes without the use of organic solvents such as methanol. The testing of various sample matrix sβ-CD concentrations for their effect on peak sharpening identified 3 to 5% as optimal for the estrogen standards. The use of a sβ-CD sample matrix allowed for hydrostatic injections (3.5 kPa) of 297 s, compared with 4 s when the analytes were dissolved in methanol. A mechanism explaining the sβ-CD-induced effect involves an analyte transfer mechanism where the sβ-CDs, despite providing anodic mobility to analytes in the sample zone, are able to transfer analytes to trailing separation buffer micelles for “recycling” back into the sample zone without compromising the stacking process. The overall improvement in sensitivity allows detection of estrogens in the parts-per-billion range and stands to improve the utility of MCE as a bioanalytical technique.  相似文献

The zone stabilization in capillary isotachophoresis in the water phase has been improved by methylcellulose so that proteins can be analysed. Hemoglobin and hemiglobin cyanide samples were studied as model systems. Ampholine carrier ampholytes were used as spacers, enhancing the detection of the different components. The optimal amounts of Ampholine, however, were found to be much smaller than in most of the previously published reports. Linear relationships were found between the zone lengths and sample amounts, including spacers. The separations were reproducible and reached the isotachophoretic steady state. The hemiglobin cyanide was fractionated by isoelectric focusing. The four main fractions were then analyzed by capillary isotachophoresis and shown to be heterogeneous in mobility with a pH of 7.5 in the leading electrolyte. The component zones of the total hemiglobin cyanide sample were all identified in relation to the isotachophoretic components of the isoelectric fractions. The total analysis time was in average 30-40 min. The sample amounts were about 40 mug protein in each experiment with very small Ampholine volumes, 25-100 nl 40% (w/v).  相似文献

Affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE) is a broad term referring to the separation by capillary electrophoresis of substances that participate in specific or non-specific affinity interactions during electrophoresis. The interacting molecules can be found free in solution or can be immobilized to a solid support. Every ACE mode has advantages and disadvantages. Each can be used for a wide variety of applications. This paper focuses on applications that include purification and concentration of analytes present in diluted solutions or complex matrices, quantitation of analytes based on calibration curves, and estimation of binding constants from direct and derived binding curves based on quantitation of analytes or on analyte migration shifts. A more recent chemicoaffinity strategy in capillary electrophoresis/capillary electrochromatography (CE/CEC) termed molecular imprinting (`plastic antibodies') is discussed as well. Although most ACE studies are aimed at characterizing small-molecular mass analytes such as drugs, hormones, and peptides, some efforts have been pursued to characterize larger biopolymers including proteins, such as immunoglobulins. Examples of affinity interactions that have been studied are antigen–antibody, hapten–antibody, lectin–sugar, drug–protein, and enzyme–substrate complexes using ultraviolet, laser-induced fluorescence, and mass spectrometer detectors. This paper also addresses the critical issue of background electrolyte selection and quantitation of analytes. Specific examples of bioaffinity applications are presented, and the future of ACE in the biomedical field is discussed.  相似文献

Acetate-cellulose strips of "Cellogel" type have been shown to be a suitable maintenance medium for performance of isotachophoresis. For immuno-isotachophoresis antigen (from 0.5 to 20 microliter) is applied to a strip of acetate-cellulose film. 1--2 microliter of ampholine solution is placed in front of the antigen zone. All the components present on the strip are made in 0.06 M tris-HCl buffer (pH 6.7), and 0.012 M tris-glycine (pH 8.3) is used as an electrode buffer. Electrophoresis produces migrating Kolraush boundary, which at first is the area of antigen concentration into a narrow starting zone, and then of antigens separation with ampholites. The antigens separated on a cellogel strip are subject to cross-electrophoresis on a film saturated with the respective antiserum, with formation of precipitation peaks for each individual antigen. The method permits to operate with low antigen concentrations since electrophoresis ensures their preliminary concentration and the width of the zones is independent of the time of separation.  相似文献

The separation and detection of acidic and neutral impurities in illicit heroin using capillary electrophoresis (CE) is described. Separations were achieved using charged cyclodextrin modified micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography. The use of the anionic β-cyclodextrin sulfobutyl ether 1V in combination with sodium dodecyl sulfate significantly increased resolution. Improved selectivity and/or sensitivity in detection was obtained using photodiode array ultraviolet and laser-induced fluorescence detection. The phenanthrene-like heroin impurities exhibit high native fluorescence under krypton-fluoride laser excitation (248 nm). The limit of detection by laser-induced fluorescence detection for one of these solutes (acetylthebaol) is 1.8 ng/ml, 500 times more sensitive than UV. This methodology is applicable to analysis of both crude and refined heroin.  相似文献

This contribution reviews work about liposomes in the context of electrically driven separation methods in the capillary format. The discussion covers four topics. The one broaches the application of liposomes as pseudo-stationary phases or carriers in vesicle or liposome electrokinetic chromatography (EKC) in the way as microemulsions and micelles are used; it includes the chromatographic use of liposomal bilayers as stationary phases attached to the wall for capillary electrochromatography (CEC). The second topic is the characterization and separation of liposomes as analytes by capillary electrophoresis (CE). Then the determination of distribution coefficients and binding constants between liposomes and ligands is discussed, and finally work dealing with peptides and proteins are reviewed with lipid bilayers as constituents of the electrically driven separation system.  相似文献

A fast and simple method for separation of 16 seizure drug substances using capillary electrophoresis in a non-aqueous separation medium is described. The separation medium consists of a mixture of acetonitrile, methanol and glycerol with ammonium acetate/acetic acid as the electrolyte. The analytes are detected by UV detection at 214 nm. Injection from the detection end (8.5 cm to detector) combined with the usage of a short capillary (32.5 cm total length) makes it possible to separate all 16 amines within 2 min. The choice of solvents, electrolytes and viscosity increasing additives are discussed with special emphasis to their influence on the separation selectivity.  相似文献

A simple and rapid capillary electrophoresis with direct chemiluminescence method has been developed for the determination of five natural pharmacologically active compounds including rutin, protocatechuic aldehyde, chlorogenic acid, luteolin and protocatechuic acid. The luminol as a component of the separation electrolyte buffer was introduced at the head of the separation capillary. The separation of five compounds was carried out in a fused-silica capillary with 15.0 mmol/L tetraborate, 1.0 mmol/L SDS and 0.42 mmol/L luminol (pH 8.5). The analytes was determined by enhancing the chemiluminescence of luminol with 0.13 mmol/L K3Fe(CN)6 in 0.05 mol/L NaOH, which was introduced at the post-column stage. The voltage applied was 16 kV. Under the optimum conditions, the analytes were separated within 10 min. The excellent linearity was obtained over two to three orders of magnitude with a detection limit (signal:noise = 3) of 0.012-0.055 micromol/L for all five analytes. The method was successfully used in the analysis of pharmaceutical and biological samples, and the assay results were satisfactory.  相似文献

Strategies reported for the separation of proteins in capillary zone electrophoresis and capillary isoelectric focusing are reviewed. The strategies are grouped into two categories: coated capillaries and buffer/sample additives. Success attained with each case and also, more importantly, the limitations of the methodology are discussed. Recent results from our own laboratory in the area of capillary isoelectric focusing in uncoated, fused silica capillaries using additives are summarized. The advantages and disadvantages of coated columns vs. additives are delineated.  相似文献

The possibility was considered to use the transverse thermophoresis of analytes in the capillary for capillary electrophoresis (CE) to control the separation process, decrease the peak width due to thermal effects and provide new separation parameters in CE. As the examination has shown, in non-aqueous buffers the Joule heating in the capillary for CE can provide transverse temperature gradients comparable with the temperature gradients in conventional devices for thermal field flow Fractionation (ThFFF). It was proposed to use the non-uniform velocity profile of analytes caused by the transverse temperature gradient and the temperature dependence of the buffer viscosity for the FFF-like separation of analytes besides CE separation. The expressions for the peak parameters have been derived, where the non-uniform transverse analyte concentration distribution due to the thermophoresis is taken into account, and the possibilities based on FFF-CE principles are discussed. As possible objects of this hyphenated technique, macromolecules and particles are considered.  相似文献

The separation power of capillary zone electrophoresis was examined using highly purified and well-characterized biosynthetic human insulin, growth hormone, their derivatives, and related proteins. Mixtures of proteins were chosen to illustrate practical applications of this technique. Proteins differing slightly in structure, but equivalent in net charge, were not completely separated. Degradation of insulin by dilute acid treatment was followed by capillary zone electrophoresis, native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Excellent correlation was observed between these techniques. Simple equipment requirements and analysis times on the order of 10 min make capillary zone electrophoresis attractive for analytical protein separations.  相似文献

An integrated platform consisting of monolithic immobilized pH gradient-based capillary isoelectric focusing (M-IPG CIEF) and capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) coupled by a partially etched porous interface was established. Since carrier ampholytes (CAs) were immobilized on monolith in M-IPG CIEF to form a stable pH gradient, subsequent depletion of CAs at the interface to prevent the interference on CZE separation and detection were avoided. Moreover, a partially etched porous capillary column, which was facile for fabrication and durable for operation, was exploited as the interface to combine M-IPG CIEF and CZE. The RSD values in terms of the migration time for M-IPG CIEF separation, transfer protein from the first dimension to the second dimension, and CZE separation, were 2.4%, 3.9% and 2.3%, respectively. With a 6-protein mixture as the sample, two-dimensional capillary electrophoresis (2D-CE) separation was successfully completed within 116 min, yielding a peak capacity of ~200 even with minute sample amount down to 5.0 μg/mL. The limit of detection was 0.2 μg/mL. In addition, proteins extracted from milk were used to test the performance of such a 2D-CE separation platform. We expect that such a novel 2D-CE system would provide a promising tool for protein separation with high throughput and high peak capacity.  相似文献
