Modeling the performance of pilot-scale countercurrent chromatography: scale-up predictions and experimental verification of erythromycin separation

Biosynthesis of polyketide antibiotics, such as erythromycin A (EA), can result in the formation of analogues of the main compound that are chemically and structurally extremely similar. The large-scale purification of these antibiotics by conventional high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) can be prohibitively expensive due to the large volume of both solvent and adsorbent required. This study examines the feasibility of using a novel pilot-scale countercurrent chromatography (CCC) machine as an alternative to HPLC. CCC is a low-pressure (typically <4000 kN m(-2)) liquid-liquid chromatographic technique that allows the separation of solutes on the basis of their partitioning between two immiscible liquid phases. The effects of mobile phase flow rate, column rotational speed, and sample injection volume on the attainable yield and purity of EA were investigated. Our results show that, at a mobile phase flow rate of 40 mL min(-1), a rotational speed of 1200 rpm, and an injection volume of 100 mL (10 g total erythromycin), EA could be satisfactorily fractionated with a purity of approximately 92% (w/w) and a recovery yield of approximately 100% (w/w). The total solute throughput was estimated to be 0.41 kg day(-1). More importantly, we demonstrated simple and predictive linear scale-up of the CCC separation based on data obtained from a single laboratory-scale CCC chromatogram, and verified this experimentally. The retention time and peak width of the target compound at the pilot scale could be predicted to within 4% for operation at a range of mobile-phase flow rates and injection volumes. This predictable nature of CCC separations, unlike HPLC methods, can greatly reduce process development times and enable a complete process-scale operating scenario to be planned.

Technology of streptomycin sulfate separation by two-stage foam separation

Industrial discharges from manufacturing streptomycin sulfate (SS) are inhibitory to biological wastewater treatment and need to be stripped of residual SS. For effective SS recovery from the wastewater, a two-stage foam separation technology was investigated using a column with a vertical ellipsoid-shaped channel (VEC) and a conventional one, and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) served as the collector. The mechanism of enhancing foam drainage by VEC was theoretically analyzed. In the first stage, the column with VEC was used and under the optimal conditions of the liquid-loading volume 300 mL, volumetric airflow rate 100 mL/min, the initial pH 7.0 and the molar ratio of SDS to SS 8.0, an improved SS enrichment ratio of 16.7 was obtained. In the second stage, a conventional column was used and with a volumetric airflow rate of 450 mL/min, the foamate had a SS concentration of about 0.5 g/L, so it was used as the feed solution of the first stage. By the two-stage technology, the total SS recovery percentage reached as high as 99.7%. Thus, it was significantly effective for the two-stage foam separation technology to recover SS from the simulative wastewater.     

Preparative separation of helvolic acid from the endophytic fungus <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pichia guilliermondii</Emphasis> Ppf9 by high-speed counter-current chromatography

High-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) was applied for preparative separation of helvolic acid from the crude extract of the endophytic fungus Pichia guilliermondii Ppf9, associated with the medicinal plant Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis for the first time. The two-phase solvent system consisted of n-hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (4.5:4.5:5.0:5.0, v/v) appending with phosphoric acid (0.2%, v/v) was employed. The revolution speed of the separation column, flow rate of the mobile phase and separation temperature of the apparatus were 800 rpm, 3 ml min(-1) and 25°C, respectively. About 6.8 mg of helvolic acid was successfully obtained from 450 mg of the crude extract by HSCCC within 4 h separation procedure, and its purity reached to 93.2% according to the HPLC analysis. The product was further characterized by MS, (1)H-NMR and (13)C-NMR spectra.     

Simultaneous determination of dibucaine and naphazoline in human serum by monolithic silica spin column extraction and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry

A simple, sensitive, and specific liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method for simultaneous determination of dibucaine and naphazoline from serum was developed and validated. The extraction procedure was performed using a monolithic silica spin column. Chromatographic separation of dibucaine and naphazoline was achieved on a C(18) reverse phase column with a mobile phase gradient (mobile phase A: 10mM ammonium formate and mobile phase B: acetonitrile) at a flow rate of 0.2mL/min. LC-MS was operated under the selective ion monitoring mode using the electrospray ionization technique in the positive mode. The retention times for naphazoline, dibucaine, and the internal standard (IS) were 6.7, 7.8, and 8.0min, respectively. A linear graph was obtained for dibucaine and naphazoline with correlation coefficients >0.998 for all analytes by this method. The limit of quantification of dibucaine and naphazoline was 10 and 25ng/mL, respectively. The mean recoveries were greater than 70%. Both compounds were stable under conditions of short-term storage, long-term storage as well as after freeze-thaw cycles. Monolithic spin column extraction and LC-MS analysis enabled the separation of dibucaine and naphazoline within 20min.

Development of a quantification method for digoxin, a typical P-glycoprotein probe in clinical and non-clinical studies, using high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry: the usefulness of negative ionization mode to avoid competitive adduct-ion formation

Highly sensitive and accurate liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) methods have been developed and validated for measuring digoxin (DGX), a typical P-glycoprotein probe, in human plasma, rat plasma, and rat brain. We extracted DGX and deuterium-labeled DGX (as internal standard) from sample fluids under basic conditions using acetonitrile and sodium chloride-saturated 0.1 mol/L sodium hydroxide. The upper organic layer was diluted with distilled water, and the resulting solution was injected into an LC/MS/MS system in negative ionization mode. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a C(18)-ODS column in the gradient mobile phase, which comprised 0.05% (w/v) ammonium carbonate (pH 9.0) and methanol at a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min. Regardless of the type of biological matrix, intra-day and inter-day validation tests demonstrated good linearity of calibration curves within ranges of 0.1-10 ng/mL for plasma and 0.5-50 ng/g for rat brain and gave excellent accuracy and precision of quality control samples at 4 concentration levels. Unlike existing methods, our approach uses negative ionization to avoid competitive adduct formation of DGX. Our method showed higher sensitivity and wider applicability to various types of biological matrices than existing methods. Our method will support clinical and preclinical investigation of in vivo P-glycoprotein functionality using DGX.     

Automated liquid-liquid extraction based on 96-well plate format in conjunction with ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) for the quantitation of methoxsalen in human plasma

A sensitive, specific and high throughput bioanalytical method using automated sample processing via 96-well plate liquid-liquid extraction and ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) has been developed for the determination of methoxsalen in human plasma. Plasma samples with ketoconazole as internal standard (IS) were prepared by employing 0.2mL human plasma in ethyl acetate:dichloromethane (80:20, v/v). The chromatographic separation was achieved on a Waters Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column using isocratic mobile phase, consisting of 10mM ammonium formate and acetonitrile (60:40, v/v), at a flow rate of 0.5mL/min. The linear dynamic range was established over the concentration range 1.1-213.1ng/mL for methoxsalen. The method was rugged and rapid with a total run time of 1.5min. It was successfully applied to a pivotal bioequivalence study in 12 healthy human subjects after oral administration of 10mg extended release methoxsalen formulation under fasting condition.     

Enantiomeric separation of type I and type II pyrethroid insecticides with different chiral stationary phases by reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography

The enantiomeric separation of type I (bifenthrin, BF) and type II (lambda‐cyhalothrin, LCT) pyrethroid insecticides on Lux Cellulose‐1, Lux Cellulose‐3, and Chiralpak IC chiral columns was investigated by reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography. Methanol/water or acetonitrile/water was used as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The effects of chiral stationary phase, mobile phase composition, column temperature, and thermodynamic parameters on enantiomer separation were carefully studied. Bifenthrin got a partial separation on Lux Cellulose‐1 column and baseline separation on Lux Cellulose‐3 column, while LCT enantiomers could be completely separated on both Lux Cellulose‐1 and Lux Cellulose‐3 columns. Chiralpak IC provided no separation ability for both BF and LCT. Retention factor (k) and selectivity factor (α) decreased with the column temperature increasing from 10°C to 40°C for both BF and LCT enantiomers. Thermodynamic parameters including ?H and ?S were also calculated, and the maximum R_s were not always obtained at lowest temperature. Furthermore, the quantitative analysis methods for BF and LCT enantiomers in soil and water were also established. Such results provide a new approach for pyrethroid separation under reversed‐phase condition and contribute to environmental risk assessment of pyrethroids at enantiomer level.

Separation of 2-aminobenzamide labeled glycans using hydrophilic interaction chromatography columns packed with 1.7 μm sorbent

Separation by hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) with fluorescence detection utilizing a sub-2 μm glycan column for the separation of 2-aminobenzamide (2-AB) labeled N-linked glycans is described. The HILIC column packed with a 1.7 μm amide sorbent improves the peak capacity compared to a 3.0 μm HILIC column by a similar degree as observed in reversed-phase ultra-performance liquid chromatography (RP-UPLC). The results indicated that the optimal peak capacity was achieved at flow rate 0.2–0.5 mL/min. HILIC method transfer guidelines were shown to further enhance the resolution of glycans by changing initial gradient conditions, flow rate, column temperature, and different column lengths. Additionally, excellent resolution can be achieved in the separation of 2-AB labeled glycans released from fetuin, RNase B, and human IgG with a rapid analysis time.

Continuous biosorption of cadmium by Moringa olefera in a packed column

The biosorption of Cd(II) by Moringa oleifera using a batch system and a continuous up flow mode in a fixed bed column was studied. Batch adsorption experiments were performed as a function of pH, biosorbent dose, contact time, volume of the solution, and initial metal concentration. The adsorption isotherms obtained fitted well into the Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms. The dynamic removal of cadmium by powdered seed of the Moringa oleifera was studied in a packed column. The effect of bed height (4 and 8 cm) and flow rate (2 and 5mL/min) on biosorption process was investigated and the experimental breakthrough curves were obtained. Results showed that by increasing the bed height and decreasing the flow rate, the breakthrough and exhaustion times increased. The break-through time was considered as a measure of the column performance. The maximum break-through time of 320 min was achieved at the operating condition of 2 mL/min influent flow rate and bed height of 8 cm.     

The simultaneous separation and determination of six flavonoids and troxerutin in rat urine and chicken plasma by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet-visible detection

The method of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV-vis detection was used and validated for the simultaneous determination of six flavonoids (puerarin, rutin, morin, luteolin, quercetin, kaempferol) and troxerutin in rat urine and chicken plasma. Chromatographic separation was performed using a VP-ODS column (150 mm x 4.6 mm, 5.0 microm) maintained at 35.0 degrees C. The mobile phase was a mixture of water, methanol and acetic acid (57:43:1, v/v/v, pH 3.0) at the flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. Six flavonoids and troxerutin were analyzed simultaneously with good separation. On optimum conditions, calibration curves were found to be linear with the ranges of 0.10-70.00 microg/mL (puerarin, rutin, morin, luteolin, quercetin, kaempferol) and 0.50-350.00 microg/mL (troxerutin). The detection limits were 0.010-0.050 microg/mL. The method was validated for accuracy and precision, and it was successfully applied to determine drug concentrations in rat urine and chicken plasma samples from rat and chicken that had been orally administered with six flavonoids and troxerutin.     

Liquid chromatographic separation and thermodynamic investigation of lorcaserin hydrochloride enantiomers on immobilized amylose–based chiral stationary phase

A novel liquid chromatographic method was developed for enantiomeric separation of lorcaserin hydrochloride on Chiralpak IA column containing chiral stationary phase immobilized with amylose tris (3.5‐dimethylphenylcarbamate) as chiral selector. Baseline separation with resolution greater than 4 was achieved using mobile phase containing mixture of n‐hexane/ethanol/methanol/diethylamine (95:2.5:2.5:0.1, v/v/v/v) at a flow rate of 1.2 mL/min. The limit of detection and limit of quantification of the S‐enantiomer were found to be 0.45 and 1.5 μg/mL, respectively; the developed method was validated as per ICH guideline. The influence of column oven temperatures studied in the range of 20°C to 50°C on separation was studied; from this, retention, separation, and resolution were investigated. The thermodynamic parameters ΔH°, ΔS°, and ΔG° were evaluated from van't Hoff plots,(Ink′ _versus 1/T) and used to explain the strength of interaction between enantiomers and immobilized amylose–based chiral stationary phase     

Chromatography of human prothrombin from Nitschmann fraction III on Q Sepharose Fast Flow using axial and radial flow column

An axial column (Hitrap Q 5 ml, 2.5 2 1.6 cm) and a radial flow column (3.5 2 5 cm) packed with Q Sepharose Fast Flow media had been evaluated for the separation of human prothrombin. Nitschmann fraction III dissolved in buffered saline (0.10 M sodium chloride buffered with 0.06 M Tris/HCl to pH 7.5) was the starting material. Effects of sample flow rate of the two columns were screened. Under radial flow conditions using the radial column, sample flow rate up to 15 ml/min (i.e. 18 bed volumes/h) was achieved and the operating pressure was below 0.2 MPa eventhough the elution velocity was 30 ml/min. Breakthrough capacity was determined by analyzing the total protein and prothrombin activity of the target protein-containing fraction under subsaturating conditions and both columns had almost the same breakthrough capacity per ml media, indicating that the sample loading was independent of radial column geometry. It was concluded that the radial column is an attractive alternate to traditional axial packed bed column, exhibiting very good potential for use in the separation of human prothrombin.     

Two-step process for initial capture of plasmid DNA and partial removal of RNA using aqueous two-phase systems

In this paper, a two-step process for initial capture of plasmid DNA (pDNA) and partial removal of RNA using polyethylene glycol (PEG) and di-potassium hydrogen phosphate aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) has been investigated. A Kühni-type ATPS extraction column was prepared with 50 ml (12% (w/w) PEG 1450, 12% (w/w) phosphate) of stationary phase and loaded with crude mobile phase (26% (w/w) PEG 1450, 4% (w/w) phosphate and 70% (w/w) lysate) at a flow rate of 6 ml min⁻¹ at an impeller speed of 200 rpm. The experiment was terminated after 100 min, and after complete resettling of the phases, 45 ml of stationary phase was harvested. During a subsequent second extraction step contained 18% (w/w) PEG 300 and 14% (w/w) phosphate, a proportion of RNA, which was also concentrated during the column process, was removed. It was demonstrated that the recovery of pDNA in the second bottom phase was 89.4%, which was similar to the initial recovery after column extraction (92.1%).     

An HPLC method for determination of inosine and hypoxanthine in human plasma from healthy volunteers and patients presenting with potential acute cardiac ischemia

A simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method utilizing ultraviolet (UV) detection was developed for the determination of inosine and hypoxanthine in human plasma. For component separation, a monolithic C(18) column at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min with an aqueous mobile phase of trifluoroacetic acid (0.1% TFA in deionized water pH 2.2, v/v) and methanol gradient was used. The method employed a one-step sample preparation utilizing centrifugal filtration with high component recoveries (approximately 98%) from plasma, which eliminated the need of an internal standard. The method demonstrated excellent linearity (0.25-5 microg/mL, R>0.9990) for both inosine and hypoxanthine with detection limits of 100 ng/mL. This simple and cost effective method was utilized to evaluate potential endogenous plasma biomarker(s), which may aid hospital emergency personnel in the early detection of acute cardiac ischemia in patients presenting with non-traumatic chest pain.
