The behavior of isotactic syndiotactic and atactic polypropylene stereoisomers on porous graphitic carbon at different column temperatures is investigated with 1 decanol decalin and decane as the adsorption promoting solvents using gradient interaction chromatography . Column temperatures between 120180C are investigated for the three adsorption promoting solvents with 1 2 4 trichlorobenzene as the desorption promoting solvent . Owing to the different stereochemistry of the isomers their interaction with the atomic level flat surface of porous graphitic carbon is observed to be different when injected from the three different adsorption promoting solvents . Atactic and isotactic polypropylene are not separable when 1 decanol is used as the adsorption solvent but can be separated from syndiotactic PP at column temperatures of between 120 180C . The three stereoisomers have almost similar elution volumes when decalin is used as the adsorption promoting solvent between 120 170C . Decane allows for both adsorption and desorption of the stereoisomers at distinct peak elution volumes at the studied column temperatures of 120 160C . Furthermore it is shown that increasing the column temperature while maintaining other chromatographic conditions can either decrease or increase retention depending on the adsorption promoting solvent . More importantly retention is influenced by adsorption conditions which may affect macromolecular conformations upon injection onto the PGC stationary phase . This is the first study on PP stereoisomers highlighting this behaviour .
Retention of polypropylene stereoisomers on Hypercarb is dependent on tacticity adsorption promoting solvent and temperature. Column temperature affects retention either negatively of positively depending on adsorption promoting solvent. All polypropylene stereoisomers retained on porous graphitic carbon with decane as the adsorption promoting solvent.

Prostaglandins are vitally important unsaturated fatty acids involved in arachidonic acid metabolism participating in numerous pathophysiological processes especially in maintaining the homeostasis of uterus . Therefore quantitative analysis of PGs is of great importance for uncovering potential mechanisms of PGs related diseases . However methods for determining PGs in uterine samples have not been reported . In this study an ultra high performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry method was established to quantify PGs in uterine samples using N N Dimethylethylenediamine and N N Diethylethylenediamine as derivatization reagents . The derivatization could be finished at 37C for 30min catalyzed by 1 N N N N Tetramethyl O uronium hexafluorophosphate . This is a mild condition suitable for most of biological samples . The DMED labeling of PGs could significantly enhance their response compared to those of underived ones . This method exhibited excellent linearity R
The derivation of PGs by DMED have high derivation efficiency under mild condition. PGs derivatized with DEED can be used as internal standards. The sensitivity of PGs were increased about 100 fold compared with underived ones. Prostaglandins in uterus of AUB rat model were successfully quantified.

Eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid are high nutritional components . Evidence for unique effects of them is increasing . Further understanding of their independent biological functions urgently needs more efficient separation techniques . Nowadays most of the commercially available fish oil products are the mixture of eicosapentaenoic acid ethyl ester and docosahexaenoic acid ethyl ester . It will be convenient to directly separate esterified EPA and DHA without saponification pretreatment . However it is of great challenge to separate EPAEE and DHAEE because of their extremely fat soluble nature and the equivalent chain length rule . In this research the suitability of green guanidinium ionic liquid in countercurrent chromatography solvent system for the separation of them was evaluated for the first time . Compared with imidazolium IL and phosphonium IL guanidinium IL based non aqueous biphasic system showed more outstanding separation performance . The separation mechanism was elucidated in depth through quantum mechanical calculations . It was found that guanidinium IL acted a crucial role in the CCC separation which resulted in difference of partition behavior of EPAEE and DHAEE via different hydrogen bonding affinity . EPAEE and DHAEE were successfully separated by solvent system
A novel biphasic system based on green guanidinium ionic liquid was developed. Successful separation was achieved with high loading capacity yield and purity. Performance of ionic liquid was interpreted with help of profile and surface. Preparative separation was efficient without resolution loss and time extension. A simple method was proposed for recovery of targets and recycling of ionic liquid.

Large RNAs including messenger RNAs are promising candidates for development of new drug products and vaccines . Development of high resolution methods for direct analysis of large RNAs especially for purity in general and size or length in particular is critical to support new drug development and manufacture . However resolution based on size or length for large RNAs is limited even by capillary electrophoresis which is one of the most efficient separation methods for nucleic acids in general .

As compared to a standard CGE method using an aqueous gel resolution for commercially available RNA ladder components at 1500 and 2000nt is increased approximately 6 fold . The impacts of polymer type molecular weight of the polymer and polymer concentration on the separation were studied and optimized . Analysis of the results presented here also provides guidance for optimization of separation conditions for RNAs with different sizes as needed for particular applications in the future .

p53 is a tumour suppressor gene that has been explored for cancer gene therapy as a possible alternative to the common treatments . The use of plasmid DNA to carry the therapeutic gene has been considered but it is requisite to preserve its supercoiled structure for eliciting a more effective gene expression and therapeutic action . The purification of the sc pDNA using amino acids based affinity chromatography has been successfully applied exploring different amino acids and supports . From these studies it stood out the selectivity of arginine for the recognition of sc pDNA . However some limitation on the binding capacity was found in the arginine agarose support and in the case of monoliths some fouling and clogging can limit sequential runs . By using macroporous support modified with arginine it was expected to take advantage of the selectivity of the ligand combined with the flow properties and binding capacity offered by the support . The arginine modified macroporous support was characterized by SEM EDX and FTIR also to verify the correct immobilization of arginine and then used for pDNA purification . The support showed to be effective on the sc p53 pDNA isolation and the robustness was also achieved by accomplishing the purification of plasmids with different sizes only by slightly adjusting the experimental conditions . Regarding the dynamic binding capacity of the arginine modified macroporous support it was achieved an improvement of more than 50 in the pDNA binding capacity when compared with their homologous arginine agarose commercial matrix suggesting potential economic feasibility in case of scale up .
Macroporous matrices present extremely good flow and binding capacity properties. Arginine macroporous support showed to be effective on the sc p53 pDNA isolation. The DBC achieved was 50 higher than its commercial homologous resin.

Baseline separation and analysis of multicomponent mixtures of closely related pharmaceuticals using single column selectivity can often be challenging requiring the combination of orthogonal stationary and mobile phase methods to monitor all the species and optimize reaction outcomes . In recent years two dimensional liquid chromatography has become a valuable tool for improving peak capacity and selectivity . Though powerful standard 2D LC instrumentation and software can often lead to tedious method development and has a requirement for very specific expertise that is poorly suited for a fast paced industrial environment . In this regard the introduction of an automated online 2D LC setup that could screen multiple columns in both dimensions without manual intervention will undeniably serve to streamline column mobile phase selection and secure the viability of 2D LC as a mainstay instrument for industrial applications . Herein we introduce and investigate a multicolumn online 2D LC approach that simplifies column screening and method development dramatically . This setup incorporates 6 position column selection valve technology whose functionality enables us to combine multiple columns in the first and second dimensions .

Complex chemical mixtures found in soils at contaminated sites typically includes polycyclic aromatic compounds thus posing potential environmental and human health risks . Pressurized liquid extraction followed by silica clean up is one of the most often used extraction methods for PACs in soil . While silica clean up provide satisfactory recovery of oxygenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons this technique provides limited recovery of azaarenes . In this work we used PLE and in cell clean up with basic silica to increase the recovery of OPAHs and azaarenes . The optimized selective pressurized liquid extraction method used 4g basic silica dichloromethane 100 flush volume 100 and 120C extraction temperatures with two static cycles for each temperature no rinse in between the two extractions and 20 and 120s purge for the first and second extraction temperature respectively . The method was validated for a wide range of PAC groups including OPAHs azaarenes alkylated PAHs and sulfur heterocycles in total 87 PACs using certified reference material and in comparison to the results from previous inter laboratory data . Our SPLE method yielded results that are in agreement with certified values and inter laboratory data from prior analysis . The SPLE method also yielded lower variation than the results from the inter laboratory data for analysis of OPAH and azaarenes suggesting better precision than previous methods . More importantly the SPLE method increases sample analysis throughput as extra clean up step is not necessary anymore . The SPLE method was then successfully applied to rapidly screen PACs in three soil samples .

Volume overload is a critical limitation in Reversed Phase HPLC purification of pharmaceutical compounds . Limited solubility of these materials in most injection solvents leads to large injection volumes in order to maximize throughput . However peak distortion due to volume overload limits injection amounts and results in suboptimal use of chromatographic instruments . Volume loading for RP gradient separations was significantly increased by inserting a silica column ahead of the RP separation column . The sole purpose of this column is to dilute the plug of strong injection solvent so that the actual sample constituents are retained when the diluted injection plug arrives at the RP column . This is similar to the concept of a retention gap in GC yet this has never been applied to liquid chromatographic separations . Injection volumes were increased by almost a factor of 3 when using appropriately sized silica columns . A discussion of critical parameters that determine the effectiveness of this approach is provided . The concept is easily applied and does not require any system modifications . It is therefore well suited for open access applications where more instrument intensive approaches such as At Column Dilution would be less desirable . We will also show that the generic concept which we have titled In Column Dilution can easily be applied to increase the detection sensitivity for analytical application as well by allowing injection of larger sample volumes without peak deterioration for purifications .
Use of silica pre column significantly reduces impact of large volume injections in preparative reversed phase gradient purifications. In Column Dilution approach allows use of smaller columns for preparative purifications resulting in significant solvent and cost reduction. Injection volumes can be increased by a factor of three when using appropriately sized silica pre columns. In Column Dilution can also benefit analytical HLC analyses that require large volume injections.

A novel column coupling approach is suggested to improve both the selectivity and efficiency of protein separations in liquid chromatography . Protein separations often suffer from limited selectivity or not appropriate resolving power . For a new biopharmaceutical product the identification of the main and minor variant species is required . For that purpose often offline collection fractioning is applied which is time consuming and regularly dilute the samples to an unacceptable extent . By serially coupling columns in the order of their increasing retentivity and applying multi isocratic elution mode indeed any selectivity can be attained . Moreover if a protein peak is trapped at the inlet of a later column segment of a coupled system its band will be refocused and elute in unprecedented sharp peak . Furthermore it becomes possible to perform online on column fractioning of protein species within a very short analysis time and without sample dilution . Two three or multiple column systems can be developed and applied for complex sample separations . This new methodology can be particularly useful to improve the analysis of therapeutic mAbs and related products and offers benefits compared to offline fractionating . It is also demonstrated in this proof of concept study that methyl modified RP phase has a great potential for protein separations despite it is not commercially available in state of the art wide pore superficially porous particle format ..
A novel column coupling approach is suggested for large solute separations. Widepore columns of different retentivity were selected for the coupling. The suggested approach improves both the selectivity and efficiency. On column protein fractioning can be rapidly performed.

Retention time shifts in second order calibration assisted chromatographic analysis seriously impact the modeling and quantitative accuracies in complex systems . In this work three second order methods i.e . alternating trilinear decomposition algorithm multivariate curve resolution alternating least squares alternating trilinear decomposition assisted multivariate curve resolution were compared their performance to process liquid chromatographic data in the presence of retention time shifts and overlapped peaks . Firstly the validation samples contain five tea polyphenols at three concentrate levels within the calibration ranges helped to understand visualize and interpret these features of three second order multivariate methods . Secondly experimental data were studied concerning the determination of polyphenols in Chinese tea samples by HPLC DAD . The results showed that all three second order multivariate methods realized satisfactory quantification for five targeted analytes in Pu Er ripe tea samples and Green tea samples even with the interference of slight retention time shifts average recoveries were 91.23 113.16 for ATLD 89.96 115.96 for ATLD MCR 90.64 117.60 for MCR ALS respectively . However ATLD was disappointing in the case of larger time shifts occurring for the quantitative analysis of Black tea and Clinacanthus nutans tea the average recoveries were just 67.3384.05 . Relatively MCR ALS and ATLD MCR were more significantly excellent satisfactory results still can be obtained the average recoveries for MCR ALS and ATLD MCR were in the range of 86.04117.60 and 89.96115.96 respectively .

Peptide retention time prediction models have been developed for zwitter ionic ZIC HILIC and ZIC cHILIC stationary phases using proteomics derived retention datasets of 30 thousand tryptic peptides each . Overall hydrophilicity of these stationary phases was found to be similar to the previously studied Amide HILIC phase but lower compared to bare silicas . Peptide retention is driven by interactions of all charged residues at pH 4.5 but shows specificity according to orientation of functional groups in zwitter ionic pair . Thus ZIC cHILIC exhibits an increased contribution of negatively charged Asp and Glu due to the distal positioning of positively charged quaternary amines on the stationary phase . These findings confirm that HILIC interactions are driven by both peptide distribution between water layer adsorbed on the stationary phase and by interactions specific to functional groups of the packing material . Sequence Specific Retention Calculator HILIC models were optimized for these columns showing 0.9670.976 R
Sequence dependent peptide retention prediction model developed for zwitter ionic columns. Peptide retention at pH 4.5 is mostly driven by charged residues Arg Lys His Asp Glu. Different zwitter ionic pair result in different contribution of charged residues for retention.

High performance liquid chromatography methods with UV vis detection are the most widespread analytical procedures in modern pharmaceutical applications but reach their limitations when it comes to non chromophore molecules . Hence instead of using tiresome derivatization procedures many liquid chromatography methods make use of the so called aerosol based universal detectors namely the evaporative light scattering detector the condensation nucleation light scattering detector and the charged aerosol detector . Amongst these the CAD being the youngest of these three options is often described as the most easy to use detector and is stated to exhibit sufficient sensitivity and good linearity of signal in a dedicated range of concentration .

Recently ion chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry has been used for the determination of anionic metabolites . However connection with a mass spectrometer in this method is not straightforward because backpressure produced by the addition of a make up solution often affects the peak resolutions of the target metabolites . To overcome this problem we developed a capillary ion chromatography mass spectrometry method utilizing a double coaxial electrospray ionization sprayer . This method was not affected by backpressure and the number of theoretical plates was about three times that of a conventional sprayer . Under optimized conditions 44 anionic metabolites including organic acids sugar phosphates nucleotides and cofactors were successfully separated and selectively detected with a Q Exactive mass spectrometer . The calibration curves of the tested metabolites showed excellent linearity within the range of 1100 000nmol L and the correlation coefficient was greater than 0.991 . The detection limits for these metabolites were between 1 and 500nmol L . The developed method was applied to the quantitation of anionic metabolites in cultured cancer cell samples with tumor necrosis factor stimulation . This allowed for the successful determination of 105 metabolites . The levels of tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates changed significantly after TNF stimulation . These results demonstrate that the developed method is a promising new tool for comprehensive analysis of anionic metabolites .
A double coaxial electrospray ionization sprayer improves the peak resolutions. This method is highly selective and sensitive for anionic metabolites. This method is suitable for non targeted analysis of anionic metabolites.

The anionic phospholipid class of cardiolipins is increasingly attracting scientific attention in the recent years . CL can be found as a functional component of mitochondrial membranes in almost all living organisms . Changes in the CL composition are favored by oxidative stress . Based on this finding the investigation of CL and their oxidation products in relation to various disease patterns including neurodegenerative ones is moving into the focus of current research . The analysis of this diverse lipid class is still challenging and requires sensitive and selective methods . In this work we demonstrate an online two dimensional liquid chromatography approach by means of a heart cut setup . In the first dimension a fast hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography method was developed for the separation of CL and their oxidation products from other phospholipid classes but more important from nonpolar lipid classes such as triacylglycerol and cholesterol . Those classes can negatively affect the electrospray ionization and also the chromatography . For the heart cut approach the CL fraction was selectively transferred to a loop using a six port valve followed by the transfer to a reversed phase column in second dimension . On the RP column the transferred CL fraction including the oxidation products were separated according to the hydrophobicity of acyl chain moieties . Matrix effects were significantly reduced compared to the one dimensional LC MS method . In addition the total separation time had not to be prolonged by shifting the equilibration step of the RP column parallel to the separation in first dimension . The heart cut LC LC approach was applied to artificially oxidized lipid extracts of bovine heart and yeast by means of Fenton reaction . In summary 42 species have been identified by high resolution mass spectrometry and database matching . 31 species thereof have been further characterized by MS MS experiments .

Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography is a technique for retaining polar analytes that uses polar stationary phases and acetonitrile rich mobile phases . While this technique has several advantages over reversed phase liquid chromatography one main drawback is the reported need for longer column equilibration . The reason for this is not fully understood and is a topic of current investigation . In order to better understand and reduce the equilibration needs accurate characterization of column equilibration under varying conditions is required . The current method of characterizing HILIC column equilibration produces limited data points per test or low time resolution and is highly dependent on the column and probe compounds being used . There is a need for an improved method for characterizing HILIC column equilibration especially if trends across stationary phases are to be observed . In this work MISER or Multiple Injections in a Single Experimental Run is evaluated as a possible tool for characterizing HILIC column equilibration . MISER improves time resolution by allowing for replicate injections without interruption of data collection enabling a more thorough evaluation of column equilibration compared to traditional techniques . Experimental results gathered using MISER show that equilibration of a BEH Amide column is notably shorter when equilibrating from acetonitrile to mobile phases containing higher percentages of water . Column equilibration to a 10 aqueous mobile phase was found to be approximately 5 fold faster than equilibration to a 3 aqueous mobile phase .
Evaluation of MISER for use in HILIC column characterization. Characterization of one HILIC column using three different mobile phases. Percentage water in the mobile phase drastically effects column equilibration.

Peptide N glycosidase F is the most frequently used enzyme to release N glycan from glycoproteins in glycomics however the releasing process using PNGase F is tedious and can range in duration from hours to overnight . Recently efforts have been made to accelerate this enzymatic reaction and they include the use of microwave irradiation ultrahigh pressure enzyme immobilization and other techniques . Here we developed a novel method combining the oriented immobilization of PNGase F on magnetic particles and microwave assisted enzymatic digestion techniques to achieve highly efficient release of N glycans .

Increasing molecular diversity and market competition requires biopharmaceutical manufacturers to intensify their processes . In this respect frontal chromatography on cation exchange resins has shown its potential to effectively remove aggregates . However yield losses during the wash step need to be accepted in order to ensure robust product quality . In this work we present a novel counter current frontal chromatography process called Flow2 which uses inline dilution during an interconnected wash phase to allow high monomer recovery without contaminating the product pool with impurities . Its model based design spaces under purity and yield constraints are compared with those corresponding to traditional batch processes in terms of size and process attributes yield and productivity . The Flow2 process shows the largest extent of feasible operating points independent of feed conditions . Thereby it allows the implementation of higher ionic strength wash thus widening the range of operating conditions resulting in yields above 95 compared to batch processes . Productivities of batch and counter current processes are the same at short regeneration times and equal residence time . However long regeneration times while influencing the size of the Flow2 design space are not detrimental for its productivity resulting in twice as high values as obtained for the batch process . Furthermore process robustness is evaluated by the ability of the process to maintain the required product quality when subjected to process parameter perturbations . It is found that the Flow2 process is able to retain a larger design space associated also with higher yields showing its ability to improve process attributes without sacrificing robustness at the same time .
Novel two column counter current frontal chromatography process is presented Flow2. Model based design spaces are established for counter current and batch processes. Design spaces reveal higher operational flexibility of the counter current process. Perturbation studies reveal increased robustness of the counter current process.

In the present work for the first time offline coupling of an RPLCCZEMS MS has been demonstrated for peptide mapping of a monoclonal antibody based therapeutic product . The performance of this platform has been compared to the state of the art RPLC MS MS and CZE MS MS approaches . Fifteen fractions were isolated from a mAb tryptic digest using RPLC and each fraction was analyzed by CZE ESI MS MS . Results indicate that not only the RPLCCZEMS MS platform identified a larger number of distinct peptides than the RPLC MS MS and CZE MS MS platforms it also offered significantly superior sequence coverage . Also the distribution of amino acid residues with post translational modifications was 413 for RPLCCZEMS MS 150 for RPLC MS MS and 94 for CZE MS MS . In fact the RPLCCZEMS MS system performed better than the combined datasets from RPLC MS MS or CZE MS MS. Our study shows that the traditionally used one dimensional RPLC MS MS and CZE MS MS based platforms may not be enough for characterization of complex molecules such as monoclonal antibodies . The proposed approach should be an essential addition to the analytical toolkit for in depth primary structural characterization of mAbs .
A RPLCCZE MS MS platform was used for the first in depth mAb characterization. RPLCCZEMS MS covered more sequence peptides PTMs than RPLC MS MS CZE MS MS. It was more informative than even the combined datasets of RPLC MS MS CZE MS MS. 1D RPLC and CZE methods are thus not enough for characterization of mAbs. RPLCCZEMS MS should be added to the analytical toolbox for mAb characterization.

The complexity of determining the composition of animal tissue lipids is greatly increased by the presence of plasmalogens in which the alkyl chain is linked to glycerol by an enol ether bond instead of being esterified . Acidic methanolysis of animal tissue lipids provides the simultaneous scission of acyl and alkenyl ether moieties but the complexity of the products of reaction poses a great challenge in their gas chromatographic analysis . Two dimensional gas chromatography with online reduction provided the resolution of all components contained in acid methanolyzed animal lipids taking advantage of the selective hydrogenation of alkenyl ether methanolysis products prior to the second dimension separation
We revisisted the preparation of dimethyl acetals from plasmalogens and made recommandations to avoid unwanted degradation products. Two dimensional gas chromatography with online reduction separates dimethyl acetals and fatty acid methyl esters. Dimethyl acetals prepared from plasmalogens may be isolated from fatty acid methyl esters by liquid liquid repartition. Results are confirmed by applying GC MS and NMR spectroscopy.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 gene expresses a transmembrane glycoprotein that is over expressed in 1530 breast 3 lung and other several digestive cancers . So HER2 is a good biomarker for tumor diagnostic and treatment monitoring . Clinically detection of HER2 often employs invasive approaches with tissue samples which at large extent limit its universal application . Shedding of the extracellular domain of the HER2 into the circulation has led to the development of a serum test of HER2 ECD as an additional approach to probe the HER2 overexpression . However few methods were developed due to the high sensitivity required by the serum HER2 ECD determination . In this work we prepared a novel immunoaffinity in tube solid phase microextraction sorbent for selective enrichment of HER2 ECD . Two clinical available monoclonal antibodies against to HER2 trastuzumab and pertuzumab were selected as immunoaffinity ligands . Porous layer open tubular capillary with oriented antibody immobilization were fabricated and systematically optimized to afford a higher extraction capacity . The capacity was reached to 120.4g m which is more than 1000 times higher than that obtained by a common method . After sample extraction and enrichment by the IT SPME the eluent were determined by a particle enhanced turbidimetric immunoassay . Sensitive quantification of HER2 ECD by the PETIA was thereby accomplished . HER2 ECD concentrations in 82 clinical serum samples were determined by the developed IT SPME PETIA method and the results were well correlated with that by the clinical used chemiluminescence immunoassay . Besides the IT SPME PETIA method was found providing 5 times higher sensitivity than the CLIA and 500 times higher than the PETIA without IT SPME . The results indicate that the developed method is suitable for high sensitive quantification of HER2 ECD in clinical samples .
An immunoaffinity in tube SPME sorbent for selective enrichment of HER2 ECD was prepared. A PLOT capillary 250m ID 1m layer thickness and 8nm mesoporosity was used for the SPME. Sensitive quantification of serum HER2 ECD was accomplished.

When cyclodextrins are used in chromatography analytes retention time is decreased with an increase in concentration of CD in the mobile phase . Thus complex stability constants can be determined from the change in retention time of the ligand molecule upon complexation . Since the preceding approach implies extensive and time consuming HPLC experiments the goal of this research was to investigate the possibility of using in silico prediction tools instead . Quantitative structureretention relationship model previously developed to explain the retention behavior of risperidone olanzapine and their structurally related impurities in CD modified HPLC system was applied to predict retention factor under different chromatographic conditions within the examined domains . Predicted retention factors were further used for calculation of stability constants and important thermodynamic parameters namely standard Gibbs free energy standard molar enthalpy and entropy contributing to inclusion phenomenon . Unexpected prolonged retention with an increase in CD concentration was observed in contrast to the employed chromatographic theory used for the calculation of the stability constants . Consequently it led to failure in stability constants and thermodynamic parameters calculation for almost all analytes when acetonitrile content was 20 across the investigated pH range . Moreover ionization of investigated analytes and free stationary phase silanol groups are pH dependent leading to minimization of secondary interactions if free silanol groups are non ionized at pH lower than 3 . In order to prove accuracy of predicted retention factors HPLC verification experiments were performed and good agreement between predicted and experimental values was obtained confirming the applicability of proposed in silico tool . However the obtained results opened some novel questions and revealed that chromatographic method is not overall applicable in calculation of stability constants and thermodynamic parameters indicating the complexity of CD modified systems .
Chromatographic approach in complex stability constant assessment is time consuming. QSRR model was used to predict change in analyte retention time upon complexation. Predicted change in retention time was used to calculate stability constants. HPLC and QSRR approach were not applicable under all experimental conditions. CD concentration and acetonitrile content affected stability constant calculation.

To explore the retention and separation of stevioside polar compounds on a sulfonic acid functionalized cation exchange column the effects of different organic solvent water mobile phases on the retention behavior of polar rebaudioside A and its analogues on the column were investigated over a wide range of organic solvent contents . The obtained U shape curves hinted that the retention of the compounds on the same column transitioned from a reversed phase liquid chromatography mode to a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography mode when the water rich state in the mobile phases changed to an organic solvent rich state . Under the RPLC mode no separation of RA from its analogues was observed . The HILIC mode was beneficial to the retention and separation of RA and its analogues . Compared with polar protic solvents aprotic solvents were more conducive to the retention and separation of the polar compounds based on the HILIC mode in organic solvent rich mobile phases . Three models were used to evaluate and discuss the HILIC retention and separation of the compounds on the column . In the aprotic solvent rich mobile phase the HILIC retention of RA and its analogues was effectively described by a mixed mode model in the polar proton solvent rich mobile phase the retention of analytes was best described by an linear solvation strength model . The content and composition of the organic solvent in the mobile phase were determined to be important influencing factors that regulated the retention time for the RA and its analogues and even the separation mechanism for HILIC . The present work provides a theoretical basis for guiding one to prepare high purity RA from its analogues by predicting the retention time .
The HILIC mode was beneficial to the retention and separation of RA and analogues. Aprotic solvent was more conducive to the separation of RA following the HILIC mode. Retention of RA in an aprotic rich system was best described by a mixed mode model. Retention of RA in a proton rich system was best described by an LSS model.

In general counter current chromatography systems there are several off column fittings between injector and column inlet such as bends valves connecting tubes and joints . Due to these off column fittings the sample will diffuse in the mobile phase and form an irregular distribution when it flows from the injector to the column inlet . Thus the concentration distribution of the solutes at the column inlet is a continuous curve . As some previous research reveals it is necessary to input actual injection profile into the simulation model to mimic elution profile . Therefore we built a non ideal CCC model whose initial value is from the actual injection profile and validated the rationality of this model with iteration method . The simulation analysis of different injection profiles shows the conditions whereby a discrete injection profile can replace the actual injection profile in the non ideal CCC model for accurate simulation elution . Simulation elution under such conditions reveal that non ideal injection model can reflect the relationship between the injection profile and elution profile and help to explain the reasons of irregular change in elution profile like the tailed peak and flat peak .

A GCMS based analytical method was developed for the profiling of oil based AAS products using 15 organic constituents as target compounds . A total of 219 compounds were identified in 109 seized AAS products among them 15 target compounds were selected . The selection was based on each compound s occurrence reproducibility and variance between products . The 15 target compounds did not include the active steroid itself but only compounds found in the carrier oil . The subsequent method validation included assessment of specificity linearity precision robustness and sample stability . The method was finally applied for the classification of a set of 27 seizures of AAS products supplied by the police . The classification was based on the Pearson correlation coefficient using pre treated peak area data from the 15 target compounds . A successful classification was obtained with only a small overlap between linked and unlinked samples . A 1 false positive rate could be obtained at a threshold of 0.625 in terms of the Pearson distance . The present study thus demonstrates that it is possible to profile and classify AAS products with regard to a common origin . As the profiling method is not specific with regards to the steroid content it may potentially be used to profile and compare other kinds of oil based liquids .

Physical bed reconstructions of wall and bulk regions from a 2.1mm i.d . column packed with fully porous 1.7m bridged ethyl hybrid particles obtained by focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy serve as geometrical models for the packing microstructure in wall and central regions of a typical narrow bore SEC column . In addition the intraparticle mesopore space morphology of the BEH particles is reconstructed using electron tomography to ultimately construct a realistic multiscale model of the bed morphology from mesopore level via interparticle macropore space to transcolumn scale . Complemented by the results of eddy dispersion simulations in computer generated bulk packings relationships between packing microstructure and transchannel short range interchannel as well as transcolumn eddy dispersion are used to analyze the fluid dynamics in the interparticle macropore space of the model .

Evaluation of chiral pesticides remains a frequently neglected matter in routine food control laboratories . This fact is due to the existence of many residue definitions but also due to the lack of robust instrumental methods for the evaluation of these isomeric compounds . However supercritical fluid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry has been demonstrated to perform fast and highly efficient separations without the need to change the mobile phase employed in multiresidue pesticide analyses . Regarding chiral stationary phase columns the polysaccharide based ones clearly demonstrate the best separation technology . Two polysaccharide based columns were tested in this study and the robustness of their combination with SFC was verified . The enantiomers of lambda cyhalothrin and metalaxyl were studied precisely due to their markedly distinct toxicity and enantioselectivity . Furthermore the acute reference dose for gamma cyhalothrin is half in comparison with its enantiomer which is present in the lambda cyhalothin residue definition . These enantiomers were analyzed in terms of linearity reproducibility and matrix effects in four representative matrices . Additionally field tests under greenhouse conditions for these compounds were performed . The results obtained after different sample collections revealed a similar degradation in lambda cyhalothrin enantiomers but not in the case of metalaxyl M where the degradation in tomato was 2 to 6 times less in comparison with its S enantiomer .

Table olives a widely consumed delicacy are often selected by consumers based on the shade of their green color . The appealing coloration of fresh olives fades to brown or pale yellow during the industrial processing necessary for commercialization and storage as a result of the degradation of chlorophyll a and b to their corresponding pheophytins and other chlorophyll degradation products . The re greening of table olives may be achieved by complexation of CDP with Cu
UHPLC ICP ID MS was first used to measure copper chlorophylls. Most chlorophylls in bright green table olives were complexed with copper. Bright green table olives contained total elemental copper above natural abundance. ICP ID MS provides quantitation of copper chlorophylls without using reference materials. High total elemental copper and copper chlorophyll content may be achieved by addition of copper salts.

Liquid liquid partition chromatography has been used for many years as a model and teaching introduction to column chromatography . However the partition model does not describe separations on bonded phases with porous supports particularly well especially regarding the thermodynamics controlling solute distribution . Further difficulties arise when more than one mechanism is involved in solute retention . Nomenclature is not perfectly aligned with the underlying thermodynamic descriptors and is inconsistently applied over various chromatographic techniques . Presented here is a general description of retention that spans partition size exclusion and hydrodynamic separation processes and is then applied to bonded phase separations on porous supports . The model provides a general description applicable to adsorption reversed phase hydrophilic interaction size exclusion hydrodynamic chromatography and any combination of these techniques including liquid chromatography at the critical condition . Further expansion to include retention by ion exchange and field flow fractionation appears to be possible . Recommendations on retention factor definition and evaluation are given .
A general retention model spanning multiple techniques is derived. Retention and thermodynamics are aligned and rationalized. Retention mechanisms are accounted individually or in combination. Retention factor is defined uniformly for all chromatography techniques.

Quantification of analysis results for the suspect and non targeted screening is essential for obtaining meaningful insight from the measurements . Ionization efficiency predictions is a possible approach to enable quantitation without standard substances . This is however especially challenging for the analysis carried out by combining the full scan mode either with fragmentation experiments in data dependent or data independent acquisition mode .
Standard free quantitation is possible via previously measured ionization efficiencies. Measured ionization efficiency values could be transferred to targeted screening. Fragmentation patters for different derivatization reagents are presented.
