    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Summary A liquid chromatographic method incorporating column-switching and fluorimetric detection for the determination of triamterene in untreated urine, is described. The urine samples (5 μL) were directly introduced onto an Hypersil ODS-C18, 30 μm (20 mm×2.1 mm I.D.) pre-column. Polar urinary compounds were removed by flushing the pre-column with water for 1 min, and the analyte was then switched onto an HP-LiChrospher RP C18,5 μm (125 mm×4mm ID) analytical column using an acetonitrile/phosphate buffer gradient elution. Fluorescence detection was performed at 230 nm excitation and 430 nm emission wavelengths. The recovery of drug was 102±2% in the 0.10–20.0 μg/mL concentration range, the limit of detection being 5 ng/mL. A validation of the usefulness of this procedure was accomplished by analysing urine extracts obtained from real samples.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Summary The validity of a method for characterizing stationary phases for reversed-phase, liquid chromatography, based on the use of homologous series, has been evaluated. The method is based on a retention model which describes the dependence of the logarithm of the capacity factor on mobile phase composition and the carbon number of specific homologous series. A first-order as well as a second-order version of this model was investigated. The second-order model proved to be a significant improvement on the first-order model, even for smaller mobile-phase ranges. Nevertheless both models showed a significant lack of fit, reflecting the incompleteness of these models. Therefore, it is very questionable whether this method is suitable to describe HPLC-column characteristics like hydrophobicity and hydrophylicity.

    Notes: Summary Copolymers from styrene and acrylonitrile could be separated according to composition by gradient elution through methanol after injection inton-heptane and sudden addition of 50, 60, or 70 vol% tetrahydrofuran. The peak sequence was the same as with a common binary gradientn-heptane/tetrahydrofuran, i.e., retention increased with acrylonitrile content of the samples. With copolymers containing 37, 31, or 26% acrylonitrile, the elution characteristics in the ternary systems could be logically extrapolated towards the points measured in the corresponding binary gradient system.

    Notes: Summary A gas chromatographic methodology with selective detection is presented for the analysis in wines and corks of pentachlorophenol residues, which are suspected to be the most likely precursors of some off-flavours described in several wine samples. After derivatisation, pentachlorophenol acetate residues were monitored by electrolytic conductivity detection and/or mass spectrometric detection in the selective ion mode at m/z 264 and 266. Recoveries varied from 80 to 96% for wine samples fortified with 5 to 100 μg l−1 and from 83 to 91% for corks (fortified at 25 to 100 μg kg−1). The proposed methodology allowed for a determination limit of μg l−1 for wine and 10 μg kg−1 for corks.

    Notes: Summary The interaction between cyclodextrin and the drug (1R,2S,3S,4S)-(5Z)-7-(3-((phenylsulfonyl)amino)bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl)hept-5-enoic acid ((+)-S-145), was studied using α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrin bonded-phase columns. Retention behavior of (+)-S-145 on these columns revealed that the strength of inclusion was β→γ→α-cyclodextrin. Interaction between β-cyclodextrin and (+)-S-145 was found to increase as the proportion of carboxylic ion in the (+)-S-145 molecule increased. Comparison of binding capacities of these bondedsilica gels obtained by frontal analysis and surface coverage indicated that availability of the immobilized β- and γ-cyclodextrin was 20–25%. The synthesized β-cyclodextrin bonded-phase column was superior to that of commercial columns in terms of chiral separation of (±)-S-145. A typical usage of the β-cyclodextrin column is discussed for separation of (±)-S-145 in plasma samples.

    Notes: Summary Determination of primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols in aqueous and nonaqueous solutions by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is described. The alcohol is derivatized with phthalic anhydride to yield the corresponding monophthalate. Separation of the derivative is achieved on an ODS-10 reverse phase (RP) column by elution with an appropriate isocratic mobile phase of acetonitrile and aqueous phosphoric acid (0.1%). Detection is accomplished by UV absorption at 230 nm or 280 nm giving linear calibration plots, for alcohols in aqueous solution from 0.05% to 0.50% (w/v) and in pyridine solution from 0.0025% to 0.0250% (w/v).

    Notes: Summary A method for the separation of phenolic acids along with shikimic and quinic acids by means of capillary gas chromatography is described and discussed. The method involves the previous derivatization of the acids to trimethylsilyl derivatives and it has been applied to the separation of acids extracted from olive leaves and roots, elm leaves and a soil A horizon. Quite good results were achieved both from qualitative and quantitative points of view. Qualitative differences have been pointed out in the phenolic acid composition of two olive cultivars and between leaves and roots of the same cultivar; also two elm species can be discriminated on the basis of the phenolic acid content.

    Notes: Summary The interaction between some polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons of environmental concern, and sodium dodecylsulphate and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide in the presence of methanol, 2-propanol and n-butanol has been evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography using micellar mobile phases. Solute-micelle association constants have been determined for the compounds investigated. The results show that the addition of the alcohol to the mobile phase decreases the association constant values, methanol 〈2-propanol 〈n-butanol, relative to those in the absence of any additive.

    Notes: Summary A method suitable for the determination of 19 biogenic amines in wine has been developed. The method involves derivatization of amines by treatment with dansyl chloride and solid-phase extraction of the derivatives. Prior to the derivatization procedure, clean-up of the wine sample with polyvinylpyrrolidone is carried out. Reversed-phase gradient elution HPLC with UV detection at 250 nm was used to determine these compounds. Some consideration was given to the effect of temperature on the separation process. Linearity of derivatization was obtained for amounts of all the biogenic amines ranging from 500 μg·L−1 to 20 mg·L−1. Limits of detection (signal-to-noise ratio=3) of the amines were similar for all the dansylderivatives (between 50 and 150 μg·L−1). Addition of standard amines was used for the determination of amine recoveries. These were better than 85% for ethanolamine, tryptamine, phenetylamine, putrescine, cadaverine and histamine. The overall process was succesfully applied to identify and quantify biogenic amines in white and red wines.

    Notes: Summary A comparative study of the solid phase extraction of phenolic compounds in water was carried out. Three different sorbents, C18, CH and PLRP-S, were tested for the preconcentration process in order to determine phenolic compounds in water at μg l−1 levels by reversed-phase LC separation and diode-array detection. The addition of an ion-pair reagent in the extraction process was also studied in order to increase the breakthrough volume of some compounds. Using the optimized conditions the limit of detection was less than 0.5 μg l−1, the maximum admissible concentration (MAC) in drinking water. The method was applied to determine phenolic compounds in Ebro river water however no phenols were found within the detection limits of the method.

    Notes: Summary The determination of atrazine in freeze-dried water samples containing simazine, 0.6% glycine as stabilizer and other pesticides has been compared using three different techniques: (i) direct rapid-magnetic particlebased ELISA, (ii) dichloromethane liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) and Florisil column clean-up prior to ELISA determination and (iii) LLE, Florisil column clean-up and gas chroamtography with nitrogen phosphorus detection (GC-NPD). The methodology developed in this paper has shown the advantages of the introduction of a clean-up step prior to ELISA determination and its correlation with GC-NPD determinations. Atrazine could be determined at levels between 0.1 to 5 μg l−1 in water smaples using the different methods described in this paper. The crossreactivity problems found in the ELISA test associated with the presence of simazine are also discussed.

For a part of the tested compounds thermodynamic data are determined which describe the interaction of enantiomers with the stationary phase. The mechanism of separation is discussed on this basis and by comparison with data for structurally similar compounds.

    Notes: Summary Ruggedness testing is performed on a gas chromatographic method for the quantitative determination of residual solvents in steroids. Eight experimental variables or factors which were expected to influence the quantitative results were selected. These factors were divided into two independent groups, i.e. four factors related to the injection process and four factors related to separation and detection. In order to determine interaction between factors and quadratic effects, a central composite design was selected for the set-up of the experiments. Because in the method an internal standard is used, relative peak area was used as response. A deviation of up to 2.5% per factor for the quantitative results was regarded as acceptable. Other responses studied are related to the system suitability. Observed main, quadratic and interaction effects were translated into rugged intervals of the experimental variables by graphical presentation. It was found that besides main effects significant interaction effects were present, for example between the temperature of the injector and the split-flow. Interaction effects can easily result in the reduction of the rugged intervals by a factor of 2. The calculated rugged intervals were compared with the precision of the instrument or factor settings in order to estimate the ruggedness of the factors. Eventually, the maximum effect of the variation in the instrument settings on the quantitative results regarding the precision of the factor settings was found to be only 2.2%. Overall, the method proved to be rugged for most factors, except for the split-flow of the injector for which the method was only rugged to a limited extent.

    Notes: Summary An experimental design has been used to study the effect of column temperature on the gas chromatographic retention of eightpara-hydroxy benzoic esters. A rapid procedure has been developed to reduce the number of experiments compared with traditional methods. Capacity factors were determined and the enthalpy and entropy of transfer from the mobile phase to the stationary phase, ΔHo and ΔSo, respectively, were calculated using the linear Van't Hoff equation (dependence of ln k′ on 1/T). A retention prediction system (RPS) for these compounds in GC was investigated. The molecular connectivity index was used to describe the quantitative structure relationships. Enthalpy — entropy compensation revealed that the mechanism was similar for all the compounds studied.

    Notes: Summary Short chain aliphatic acids are important components of the dissolved organic matter in silage effluents. Although ion exclusion chromatography offers some advantages for the analysis of these compounds, no attempt has yet been made to prove the suitability of this method for silage effluent analysis. In order to gain experience in this field, the separation characteristics of a Dionex ion exclusion column (IonPac-ICE As5) have been evaluated, the separation conditions have been improved, and several sample clean-up methods have been checked. Ten effluents generated during silaging of five different crops were collected from Bavarian farms and analyzed. Lactic and acetic acids were the predominant aliphatic acids. Pyruvic, formic, propionic, and succinic acid were detected in all samples, whereas glyceric and iso-citric acid were found in a few samples only. If some restrictions of substance specificity and separation efficiency can be accepted, the analytical method presented will be a reliable tool for the analysis of carboxylic acids in silage effluents.

For some substances the I-T plot was found to show a minimum which cannot be explained by the common retention-index temperature-dependence in gas-liquid chromatography. This result is discussed in terms of adsorption at the liquid-solid interface of the capillary column.

    Notes: Summary Molecular structural coefficients, Sc, for one hundred solutes have been calculated by means of the Takács equation using retention data obtained with over fifty stationary phases, SP. Employing data of seven SP's (characterized in our laboratories) it was found that the variation of Sc with column temperature was linear for most solutes. With data of n-decane and the ten McReynolds probes on up to fifty SP's of polarity less than RP=72, at 120°C, it was found that the Sc of n-decane and cis-hydrindane decreased slightly with increasing SP polarity, while the Sc of non-alkanes remained constant or increased very little as the SP polarity increased. The points for n-decane fit well to a second order polynomial. Again using a temperature of 120°C, the increments of Sc for solutes belonging to an homologous series were correlated with the polarity of SP's. Reasonably straight lines were obtained for all the chemical functions studied, Sc increasing with increasing SP polarity.

    Notes: Summary A series of polymer-encapsulated packing materials for reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography was prepared by radical polymerization of ethylstyrene and divinylbenzene with vinyl-modified silica in solution. Some characteristics such as polymer structure, swelling propensity, residual silanols, column efficiency and retention properties were evaluated. Such material is easy to pack and yields high column efficiencies. Its superior performance for the separation of mixtures of aromatic hydrocarbons, amino- and hydroxyl group containing compounds are demonstrated by several examples.

    Notes: Summary A procedure is described for simultaneous determination of estriol, estrone and 17β-estradiol in human urine. After acid hydrolysis of the sulphate conjugates, the estrogens were extracted into diethyl ether. The ether extracts were concentrated and applied directly to an HPLC column. Using a 25 cm C-18 column and acetonitrile-water modified by the addition of β-cyclodextrin as mobile phase, the separation of estriol, estradiol and estrone was achieved within 20 minutes. The extraction of estrogens from the biological matrix is excellent. Estrogens were detected using a UV-detector (280 nm) or a spectrofluorimetric detector (λexc=280nm, λem=312 nm). The latter detection system has been used for the determination of estrogens in the urine of non-pregnant women. The procedure is simple and can be used in clinical practice.

    Notes: Summary It is shown theoretically that when the concentration of organic solvent in the mobile phase increases, or solute size decreases, log k′ values of small solutes in reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) will tend to have a minimum value called the convergence point. A theoretical model for evaluating the convergent coordinates of small solutes is presented by using a stoichiometric displacement model for retention (SMDR). The physical meaning of the coordinates of each kind of convergence are also elucidated. The convergence points have either two-dimensional coordinates with a common ordinate (the logarithm of the phase ratio of the column, log φ) or threedimensional corrdinates with two common axes: — log φ and the logarithm of the molar concentration of the pure displacing agent in mobile phase, log aD. The other axis relates to the nature of the solutes, such as carbon number of a homolog, van der Waal's surface area, hydrophobic fragment constant etc. for the latter and those and/or concentration axis for the former. The model was tested with published data and found to give a good fit.

    Notes: Summary In this study, several new stationary phases were characterized by principal component analysis. Fourteen new stationary phases, including substituted phenyl and oligoethyleneoxide functionalities on polysiloxane polymers, were tested and compared to three well known stationary phases. The main features of these phases were studied using a series of test solutes of varying chemical characteristics representing the data set for principal component analysis. Two principal compounds were found to account for 99.20% of the variance (the first accounted for 94.96% and the second for 4.24%). The data were represented as a two-dimensional map for visual representation of the characteristics of these stationary phases. The first principal component represented a selectivity based on polarity (r2=0.998), while the second showed Lewis acid-base characteristics of the phases. Polarizable and amphoteric characteristics of these phases also became evident using this evaluation method.

Three types of silica gel with different surface characteristics were used as support for the chemically bonded phases (CBPs). Surface characteristics of the packings before and after chemical modification were determined by porosity parameters, elemental analysis and CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy.29Si and13C CP/MAS NMR investigations gave informations about different interactions between aminosilyl ligands and/or these ligands and/or water molecules condensed in the pores of the silica gel surface. With decreasing pore diameter of the silica gel the proportion of protonated aminopropyl ligand increases.

    Notes: Summary ‘Z’-shaped UV cells for packed capillary columns cannot be used in open-tubular capillary column liquid chromatography (OT-LC) because of their relatively large volume. With post-column solvent make-up, a commercial ‘Z’-shaped cell (volume 100 nl) was used in our OT-LC system, resulting in 9-fold sensitivity increase against on-column UV detection and with little efficiency loss. A small volume (5 nl) ‘Z’-shaped cell allows the direct coupling of the cell to high efficiency columns. For dilute samples, 9-19-fold sensitivity enhancement could be obtained. However, column efficiency decreases with increasing signal level as a result of peak deformation.

    Notes: Summary Reversed-phase liquid chromatography of cyclosporin A, a peptide immunosuppressant, at various temperatures produced remarkably different chromatograms. At 60°C one sharp peak was obtained, at 23°C this became a single broad peak and between 15° and 0°C this became one high sharp peak followed by a tailing or low plateau. Remarkably different chromatograms were produced also by varying the mobile phase flow-rate. The effects of both temperature and flow-rate on the chromatogram could be accounted for by interconversion between two forms of the cyclosporin molecule. Kinetic analysis showed that one form was converted by first-order kinetics with a half-life of 2.0 min at 20°C and that the apparent activation energy for the conversion was about 18 kcal/mol. The other two immunosuppressants, cyclosporin C and D, were also shown to undergo interconversion. This kinetic analysis of the interconversion should be helpful in clarifying the relationship between molecular structure and activity of the immunosuppressants.

    Notes: Summary An SFE-HPLC method for the determination of carbendazime in lettuce leaves is described. The method involves a prior lyophilization of the sample and subsequent extraction with supercritical carbon dioxide containing methanol. The extraction conditions are as follows: amount of lyophilized sample, 1 g; CO2 density, 0.75 g/ml; temperature, 50 °C; flow-rate, 1.8 ml/min; dynamic extraction time, 25 min. Carbendazime is determined with an octadecylsilane column, an acetonitrile/water 30∶70 mobile phase and fluorescence detection at 285/317 nm. Carbendazime recoveries from spiked samples were all close to 100%. A comparison with the results from a conventional method for the determination of carbendazime reveals the new method to be more rapid, simple and reproducible for samples with low concentrations of analyte.

    Notes: Summary The measurement of flow constancy and pulsation amplitudes of HPLC pump based on the photoconversion of malachite green leucocyanide is described. The irradiation time and hence the degree of conversion of the leucocyanide is correlated to flow fluctuations of piston driven HPLC pumps. It is possible to measure the amplitude of pulsations and determine the constancy of the flow rate. Most of the pumps show a flow stability better than ±1% measured as relative standard deviation of the flow rate under HPLC conditions (pressure drop 100 bar at 1 ml/min flow rate). The most expensive pump of those tested showed less than ±0.5% flow instability, however, this result was achieved by installation of a large-volume pulsation damper. The method described also allows flow rate measurements under FIA conditions where there is little or no pressure drop at the pump outlet.

    Notes: Summary The stability of freeze-dried water samples spiked with eight agrochemicals (atrazine, simazine, linuron, carbaryl, propanil, fenitrothion, parathion and fenamiphos) were examined to evaluate their suitability as candidate reference materials for their determination in water samples. In addition, two different extraction procedures, liquid-liquid and supercritical fluid extraction, were compared for the isolation and trace enrichment of target analytes from freeze-dried water samples. Final analytical determinations were by gas chromatography-nitrogen phosphorus detection and electronic impact mass spectrometry, and by liquid chromatography-diode array detection. The whole methodology developed in this paper permitted the determination of pesticides spiked in water at levels varying from 0.03 to 6.9 μg L−1.

Plant samples are extracted with a basic acqueous solution and extracts purified by solvent partitioning. Herbicide residues are submitted to perfluoroacylation prior to GC separation. These compoiunds are determined by ion-trap detection with single ion monitoring; N-(3-chloro-4 methyl-phenyl_ perfluoropropyl amide is used as internal standard. The detection limit of the method is near 0.001 μg g−1 for the samples studied. The proposed methods are sensitive and reproducible enough to allow determination of these herbicides at residue levels in plants and soil.

    Notes: Summary The modification of silica surfaces by calcium ions has been studied by high-performance liquid chromatography. After treatment at pH 7.0 and 9.0 with calcium hydroxide, the modified silicas were characterised by physical and chemical analysis. From measurements by atomic absorption, the amount of calcium adsorbed was 650 ppm on silica modified at pH 7.0, and 4800 ppm on silica modified at pH 9.0. The amount of calcium on the modified silica was 0.574 groups nm−2 at pH 9.0 (original silica: mean pore diameter 176 Å, specific surface 279 m2 g−1, pore volume 1.23 ml g−1, mean particle size 9.8 μm). On the other hand, the amount of calcium in the original silica was 58 ppm. The separation factor, α for N-methylaniline and N,N-dimethylaniline was 5.2 on silica modified at pH 9.0, but could not be measured on silica modified at pH 7.0 and the original silica, using iso-propyl alcohol—n-hexane (0.5∶99.5) eluent.

    Notes: Summary A new dual injector solvent focussing and elution technique developed for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) greatly improves chromatographic efficiency for the on-line analysis of C18 solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges. Solutions containing three benzene homologs were used to characterize the dual injector analysis technique and to compare the chromatographic efficiency of this method with conventional SPE analysis methods. Sampling was performed off-line using a glass precolumn cartridge (3 mm i.d. × 30 mm) packed with 15–35 μm C18 silica. On-line cartridge analysis was achieved with two injection valves in either serial or parallel configuration. The injection loop of the first valve contains the eluting solvent, and the cartridge holder is connected in place of the injection loop of the second valve. When an injection is made, both valves are turned to the inject position, and the solvent plug is forced through the cartridge, focussing the analyte at the solvent front as it elutes the cartridge. Solvent focussing at the head of the column, resulting from preconditioning of the column with a small plug of water during injection, further minimizes the variance of the injection plug and improves the chromatographic efficiency. The technique has potential applications to environmental and biological fluid analysis where analyte preconcentration and resolution from the sample matrix components may be difficult with current SPE methods.

    Notes: Summary A rapid, sensitive and selective high-performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the determination of sphingosine in human serum. After precipitation with methanol, the samples were extracted using Carbopack B disposable columns; the sphingosine was eluted with 0.05 M hydrochloric acid in methanol-dichloromethane (20∶80, v/v) and the extract evaporated to dryness at 40°C. The sample residue was then reconstituted with methanol and reacted with o-phthaldialdehyde reagent to produce a fluorescent compound. Separation was performed using an LC-18 column with 0.05 M phosphate buffer (pH 7)-methanol-acetonitrile (15∶80∶5, v/v) as mobile phase. Fluorescence detection was performed with excitation and emission wavelengths of 340 and 455 nm, respectively. The serum extract was re-analyzed with a cyano LC column to minimize the possibility of false positive results. The possible interference of compounds having a structure similar to that of sphingosine was evaluated. The mean recovery of sphingosine was 〉94.5%. The limit of detection of the assay was 1 ng mL−1. The between-run and within-run coefficients of variation for replicate analyses were 〈4.0% and 〈3.4%, respectively. The levels of free sphingosine in the serum of 40 normal subjects (20 male and 20 female) was investigated; the average level was 81.6±41.1 ng mL−1 (mean ±S.D.) for males and 85.5±33.7 ng mL−1 for females.

    Notes: Summary High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and high-performance liquid chromatography/atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-mass spectrometry (HPLC/APCI-MS) have been applied to the analysis of thiamine in dried yeast. Thiamine was extracted from dried yeast with isobutanol containing sodium 1-octanesulfonate as an ion-pairing agent and determined by HPLC on a reversed phase ODS column with UV detection at 254 nm. Response was linear in the range 25–300 μg/g of thiamine in dried yeast with a coefficient of variation in the reproducibility of 8.0%. Thiamine was recovered in good yield (109.2%, n=5). Identification of the thiamine peak was obtained by the mass spectrum using the HPLC/APCI-MS system. The utility of the selected ion monitoring technique using the HPLC/APCI-MS was also investigated. The results obtained by this method are in good agreement with those obtained by the thiochrome method [1].

The UV detector response was linear over the range 0–200 μg ml−1 with a correlation coefficient of 0.999; detection limit: 0.002 μg ml−1. Within-day and between-day assay variation was generally ≤7%. No interference from endogenous constituents was observed. The utility of the method was demonstrated by determining chlorpropamide in samples from six healthy volunteers following a single oral dose of 250 mg.

The maximum surface coverage available with our preparation method lies between 3–3.5 μmol m−2, slightly depending on the pore size of the silica. Oligomeric not endcapped C18 packing materials are optimal for the separation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

    Notes: Summary The quantification of short chain fatty acids in their free form, by gas chromatography, is the method of choice provided that the underivatized acids elute with good peak shape and reproducibility. In biological samples not only the highly polar acids themselves but also deposits of nonvolatile sample components may interact with the column or the packing material. As a result, the peak symmetry of the fatty acids and their reproducibility can become increasingly poor. Reduction of the nonvolatile matrix components by filtration of the sample has been examined in order to achieve direct analysis of the short chain fatty acids in intestinal samples by packed column GC. Membrane filter units (0.8 μm) allow a quick and simple filtration of the samples. This pretreatment reduces the peak tailing and the broadening of the peaks. The method, when applied to different intestinal samples, allowed the quantification of short chain fatty acids in hundreds of samples without derivatization. Good results are obtained at sample concentrations higher than 0.2 mmol l−1 for each acid.

Among these, two phenolic compounds namely 3,4-dihydroxyphenylethanol glucoside and 3,4-dihydroxy-6-(N-ethyl amino)benzamide that served as efficient substrates for pepper phenolase, showed wide qualitative and quantitative variation in their composition within the varieties. Quantitative estimations of these two compounds were carried out using 4-methylcatechol and epinephrine as external standards. This method is suitable for the estimation of phenolic compounds in green pepper berries in one run.

    Notes: Summary A reversed phase liquid chromatographic method is proposed for the analysis of basic hair dyes (raw materials and colourant formulations). The performance of the method was enhanced by introducing post-column on-line photochemical derivatisation in combination with a Diode Array Detector. On-line photoderivatisation provided an effective way of selectively transforming the analytes to compounds with different spectral properties. For each analyte two characteristic UV-Visible spectra (photoreactor on and off) were obtained with the same mobile phase and this information in combination with the chromatographic data (k' at pH 3.0 and 4.5) enabled the unambiguous identification of both commonly used, approved, and banned basic hair dyes. Additionally, this approach was found useful to improve the method sensitivity, allowing the determination of analytes present in low concentration (0.03%) in complex commercial formulations.

    Notes: Summary Copolymers from styrene and ethyl methacrylate have been separated according to composition byn-heptane gradients on a C18 bonded phase after injection into acetonitrile and subsequent sudden transition to a concentration of either dichloromethane or tetrahydrofuran between 30 and 50% or 20 and 50%, respectively. Acetonitrile is a polar non-solvent for the copolymers under investigation and ensures proper retention of the samples on a non-polar stationary phase. Dichloromethane and tetrahydrofuran are good solvents of moderate polarity. The addition of, e.g., 30 vol% of one of these solvents increased the dissolution power of the starting eluent but not to the extent necessary for elution. The latter was achieved by the addition ofn-heptane, which is a non-solvent for the polymers investigated. Thus, its eluting power must be understood as the consequence of its modifying effect on the polarity of the eluent mixture. The higher the content of copolymer in ethyl methacrylate the earlier it was eluted. Since acetonitrile andn-heptane are only partly miscible, phase diagrams were measured after the addition of either tetrahydrofuran or dichloromethane as a third component. Homogeneous mixtures were obtained on addition of about 30% solvent (one of both of the latter).

    Notes: Summary An on-line trace-enrichment system, using a bifunctional membrane extraction-disk cartridge, has been combined with a column liquid chromatography separation for the simultaneous determination of basic, neutral and acidic pollutants in surface water. The enrichment device consisted of a specially constructed holder containing both C-18 and cation-exchange disks. The holder can contain up to 25 disks of 0.5 mm thickness and 4.6 mm diameter. Before trace enrichment of 20 ml of surface water (pH 3.0), calcium ions were removed from the sample by means of an oxalic acid precipitation. Desorption of the cartridge was at elevated temperature using reversed-phase gradient elution; detection was performed with a diode-array UV absorbance detector. The detection limits for the test compounds in surface water are typically 0.5–2 μg/l; the calibration graphs are linear from the lower limit of determination up to 50 μg/l.

    Notes: Summary Fluorinated bonded silica has been evaluated as a packing material in reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated benzenes and substituted benzenes as sample probes. The bonded material is useful as a reversed-phase stationary phase and for polar compounds it offers a specific selectivity not found with octadecylsilica (ODS) phases. The phase also retains non-planar compounds more than planar molecules. The results can be explained by conformational differences between ODS and the fluorinated bonded phase by MM2 calculation.

    Notes: Summary A gas chromatographic method employing a capillary column and a selective nitrogen/phosphorus detector (NPD) has been developed for the determination of organophosphorus (OP) and organonitrogen (NP) pesticides in horticultural samples (apples). The separation of sixteen pesticides and the internal standard was performed in thirteen minutes. The analytical characteristics of the method, including linear response ranges, detection limits, and reproducibility, have been studied using a 1∶1 mixture of ethyl acetate and xylene as extraction solvent. The possibility of mutual interference between pesticides has also been studied. A procedure for the quantitative extraction of the sixteen pesticides from apple samples has also been developed; for fifteen of the pesticides recoveries 〉85% were obtained after 90 minutes extraction. The effect of different solvents both on recovery and on the sensitivity of the subsequent chromatography were also investigated. It was found that the sensitivity required must be considered when the solvent for sample treatment is selected.

    Notes: Summary Various methanol-based, binary and ternary solvent systems were compared with respect to resolution of cis isomers of α and β-carotene by reversed-phase HPLC. A ternary system: acetonitrile-methanol-methylene chloride (75∶15∶10), or a binary system: acetonitrilemethanol (90∶10 or 5∶95) provided the best separation of β-carotene and its four cis isomers, 9-cis, 13-cis, 15-cis and 13,15-di-cis-β-carotene. The elution order of 9-cis and 13-cis-β-carotene was dependent on the methanol concentration. Methanol-methylene chloride (99∶1) resolved α-carotene and its three cis isomers, 9-cis, 13-cis, and 15-cis-α-carotene. It also proved the best for simultaneous separation of cis isomers of α and β-carotene. Sample solvent can affect the separation efficiency of each isomer. The presence of cis isomers of α and β-carotene in fresh and cooked carrots was also determined.

    Notes: Summary Free D-amino acids (D-AA) were detected as native constituents in juices of vegetables (cultivars of cabbage, tomato, carrot, garlic) and fruits (organes, clementine, grapefruit, lemon, apples, pear, grapes) using gas chromatography (GC) or high-performance liquid chromatography (LC). For investigation by GC, AA enantiomers were converted into theirN(O)-pentafluoropropionyl 2-propyl esters and resolved on a Chirasil-L-Val capillary column. For determination by LC, precolumn derivatization of AA enantiomers usingo-phthaldialdehyde together with the chiral thiolsN-isobutyryl-L-cysteine orN-isobutyryl-D-cysteine and fluorescence detection of the diastereomeric isoindole derivatives, resolvable on an octadecylsilyl stationary phase, were used. D-Ala (0.6–3.8%) was detected in all freshly pressed plant juices usually in the highest relative amounts. Other D-AA detected were D-Asx (0.1–1.9%), D-Glx (0–1.3%), D-Ser (0–1.7%), D-Arg (0.4–1.2%, in grapes, orange, grapefruit, and clementine) and D-Leu and D-Val (1% in cabbage). Absolute amounts of native D-AA were totally 28–57 μmol L−1 in fruit juices, 14.5 μmol L−1 in a tomato juice and 8.5 μmol L−1 in a carrot juice.

    Notes: Summary The effect of column temperature, especially at low temperatures, on the separation of fullerenes on monomeric and polymeric octadecyl silica (ODS) bonded phases has been studied. Decreasing the column temperature induces an increase in selectivity. The best temperature for the separation of fullerenes was determined for both types of ODS phase with n-hexane eluent. The selectivity for higher fullerenes on monomeric phases becomes similar to that on polymeric phases to low temperature. It has been found that as the carbon content of monomeric phases is increased, the selectivity also becomes similar to polymeric phases.

Statistical treatments both monovariate and multivariate were applied to the results in order to identify regularities useful to discriminate the polar resistance and to check the importance of seasonal and cultivation site related factors. For the two clones examined phenolic compounds showed great discrimination ability not influenced by either sample collection period or cultivation site.

    Notes: Summary The determination of catecholamines by HPLC with a sodium dodecyl-sulphate (SDS), micellar mobile phase on a C18 column and with coulometric detection was studied. The eluate was conditioned at +0.25 and +0.00 V, and the current at −0.16V was recorded. A previously developed model which describes the chromatographic behaviour of solutes in HPLC with hybrid, micellar mobile phases was used to optimize the SDS and ethanol concentrations. A mobile phase of 0.15M SDS in a phosphate buffer of pH 3.4 and without ethanol is recommended. The limits of detection were 0.4–0.7 ng ml−1. The procedure was applied to the determination of unconjugated L-dopa, norepinephrine and dopamine in urine. Direct injection of the urine samples gave high results but the unconjugated catecholamines could be determined with a single solid-phase extraction step on an alumina column.

This methodology was found to be superior to the resolution of the same derivatives by reversed phase HPLC analysis. A possible mechanism for stereoselectivity is described.

    Notes: Summary A method for the determination of reducing sugars such as fructose and glucose and nonreducing sugar such as sucrose by high performance liquid chromatography followed by an acidic hydrolysis and a derivatization with benzamidine has been developed. After separation of sugars on a gel column packed with a polymer-based cation exchange material (Sugar-Pak I, Waters-Millipore), the sucrose is first hydrolysed in a solid phase reactor to convert it into reducing subunits. A post-column fluorigenic reaction with benzamidine under alkaline condition allows the selective determination of both natural and converted reducing carbohydrates. This procedure has proven to be selective (fluorigenic detection) and highly sensitive (allowing detection as little as picomoles amounts), reproducible and linear over a broad range of concentrations: 5×10−4 to 1.0×10−2 M. The applicability of this method to natural matrices such as plant extracts and beverages is also described. The sugar content of a barley extract has been determined and compared with a specific enzymatic test. The determined sugar content of natural and commercial lemon juices as well as of Cola beverages has been compared with those found by the conventional LC refractive index analytical procedure. In all cases, the results were comparable and were within the experimental errors of the methods.

    Notes: Summary Experiments and simulations prove that correlation chromatography can greatly reduce the disadvantage of a non-linear response of the chromatographic column. A factor that has been accepted as being an important source of error in correlation or multiplex chromatography, has been shown not to be. Separations affected, improve dramatically when correlation chromatography is used, and a substantial amount of correlation noise only arises when there is a large difference in separation between a conventional chromatogram and a correlogram. A model has been developed for simulating these nonlinearities. It is shown that, especially for correlation chromatography, the simulation results match the practical measurements very well.

    Notes: Summary A method has been developed for the determination of thirteen phenylurea herbicide residues in milk. It involves one-step solvent extraction of the milk with methanol by ultrasonication. The extract is cleaned up on an Amberchrom resin cartridge. Reversed-phase, gradient elution, high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection at 242 nm is used to analyse the residues. The recovery of thirteen phenylurea pesticides is quantitative, ranging from 71.4% to 97.9% for the individual herbicides investigated at concentrations around 0.05 mg kg−1 and from 65.1% to 95.6% around 0.005 mg kg−1. The method is not associated with any of the emulsion problems common to conventional solvent extraction, which considerably reduce the sample clean-up process compared with existing methods.

    Notes: Summary A GC method is described for the determination of pollutants in aqueous samples by direct enrichment out of large sample volumes in a PTV injector. The vaporized water is eliminated through the split vent and the analytes are concentrated on an adsorbent inside the insert of the PTV. For the selection of suitable adsorbents, breakthrough volumes of selected pesticides and nitroaromatics on Tenax TA, Tenax GR, Chemipack C18 and graphitized carbon blacks have been determined by experiment. The determination of the breakthrough volumes was carried out directly in the PTV insert. Tenax TA proved to be the best sorbent with regard to the breakthrough volumes and its inertness to the analytes to be determined. As the result of the investigations, 500 μl of aqueous standard solutions of pesticides and nitroaromatics (concn.=0.02 ... 2 μg/l) were analyzed with an average relative standard deviation of 10%. The procedure was successfully applied for the analysis of real samples.

    Notes: Summary A simple chromatographic method is developed to determine the rate constant for expulsion of an air pollutant from water or its diffusion parameter in the liquid, the rate constant for chemical reaction of the pollutant with water, its mass transfer coefficient in the liquid, and the partition coefficient between liquid water and air. From these physicochemical parameters, the absorption rate by sea water and, therefore, the depletion rate of a polluting substance from the air can be calculated, together with the equilibrium state of this absorption. The method has been applied to nitrogen dioxide being absorbed by triple-distilled water and by sea water, at various temperatures. From the temperature variation of the reaction rate constant and of the partition coefficient, the activation energy for the reaction and the differential heat of solution were determined.

The method was validated using a ruggedness test in the form of a Plackett-Burman design thereby exploring the immediate region around the optimum to ensure stable analytical conditions. Detection and quantitation were optimized by a factorial design in the light scattering detector parameters thus ensuring maximum detector response. This method was found to be suitable for a broad range of lipid sources from vegetable and animal origin, examples of the separation achieved are given for oat kernel, soybean and bovine milk lipids.

    Notes: Summary The determination of catecholamines (CAs) using micellar liquid chromatography with thermal lens spectrophotometric detection has been studied. CAs are oxidized with hexacyanoferrate(III) to aminochromes which are separated with a mobile phase of 0.05 M sodium dodecyl sulphate, 7% propanol and 0.03 M citrate buffer, pH 4.8, on a partially endcapped C18 column. The aminochrome-micelles and aminochrome-stationary phase association constants are evaluated. Using the 488 nm line of an Ar+ laser with 250 mW pump power the limits of detection are about 4 ng mL−1. The technique is applied to the determination of unconjugated CAs in urine using isoproterenol as internal standard.

    Notes: Summary Copolymers from styrene and ethyl methacrylate have been separated according to composition by methanol gradients on a cyanopropyl column after injection inton-heptane and a subsequent rapid increase of dichloromethane (DCM) concentration from zero to a constant value in the range from 10 to 40%. Retention and resolution in sudden-transition gradients increased with decreasing DCM concentration. The gradient rate was varied between 2.5 and 7.5%/min with optimum resolution at 2.5% min. At a level of 20% DCM and a gradient rate of 5%/min, the separation of a mixture of five copolymers in a sudden-transition gradient was the same as with the corresponding common gradient, i.e., with injection into a mixture ofn-heptane and 20% DCM. Elution was also achieved at a level of 20% DCM by continuous addition of tetrahydrofuran (THF) instead of methanol. With THF, the peaks appeared later than with methanol in spite of the fact that methanol is a non-solvent and THF a good solvent for the polymers investigated. This indicates that elution was, in the first instance, caused by the polarity of the eluent. The elution characteristics of the copolymers in the system heptane/methanol at constant DCM concentration were basically similar to the already known characteristics iniso-octane/methanol at constant THF concentrations.

    Notes: Summary The separation of the D and L enantiomers of eighteen essential α amino acids has been investigated by ligand-exchange chromatography (LEC). The effect of column temperature on the retention times and resolution of individual amino acid enantiomers has been studied by varying the temperature from 25 to 50 °C for a mobile phase containing Cu2+ ions. By use of a temperature of 50 °C and Zn2+ in the mobile phase, eight of the eighteen amino acid enantiomers can be resolved sufficiently well for practical application. Only phenylalamine, tyrosine, and tryptophan can be separated by use of Ni2+ as complexation metal at 50 °C. LEC has been used to monitor the decarboxylation of racemic DL-aspartic acid byPseudomonas dacunhae. Analysis of DL amino acid enantiomers in different media was performed at column temperatures of 30 and 50°C by addition of 0.125 mM Cu2+ to the aqueous mobile phase. It was found that the analytical performance is most dependent on the identity of the metal used for complexation; the concentration of the metal was of secondary importance and the column temperature less important still.

The ethyl acetate-methanol mobile phase showed anomalous elution behaviour, similar to other previously investigated solvent combinations with methanol. The ethyl acetate-acetonitrile mobile phase showed no anomalous behaviour, increased retention and, elution over a wider composition range compared with the dichloromethane-acetonitrile system. However, resolution between adjacent molecular masses was considerably worse.

    Notes: Summary Gas chromatography has been used to study the kinetics of evolution of volatiles from polypropylene samples (at 70°C). Correlation chromatography (CC) and the trapping of volatiles on Tenax sorbents and activated charcoal were employed to improve the detector signal. As a reference, the kinetics of gas evolution was studied by making a series of direct single injections of polymer head-space gas on a GC column. The results of trapping differed from those obtained by single injection. However, the data from single injections and CC were in good agreement. The CC method was found to offer far more operator convenience for dynamic head-space analysis than sample trapping, being less subject to operator errors.

    Notes: Summary A simple and sensitive assay has been developed for the quantitative measurement of a new platelet activating factor antagonist (BN50730), and its two main metabolites (BN50727 and BN50922), at the picomole level in human plasma and urine. The three compounds of interest and the internal standard (BN50765) were measured by combined LC-negative chemical ionization MS. A simple solid-liquid extraction procedure was used to isolate the parent drug and the two metabolites. The MS was tuned to monitor the intense ionm/z 333 generated in the ion source by a dissociative capture process. The assay was on 1 ml plasma or 0.1 ml urine and the quantitation limit was calculated as 1 ng·ml−1. The very low relative standard deviations and mean percentages of error calculated for within-day or between-day repeatability assays demonstrate the ruggedness of the technique for routine determination in biological fluids. Some preliminary results on the pharmacokinetics of the parent drug and its two main metabolites illustrate the applicability of this method.

    Notes: Summary Quantitative gas chromatography of triglycerides in conjunction with established triglyceride formulae can be used to determine various milk fat parameters. Since the evaluation of, for example, iodine number or content of non-milk fats (foreign fats) in milk fat requires only the separation of triglycerides by carbon number and since repeatabilities, especially of the highboiling triglycerides, have been less acceptable with capillary columns in the past, packed columns have been used exclusively. There is, however, an increasing demand for the use of capillary instead of packed columns and to that end the present investigation has been carried out. To achieve a suitable resolution, with this particularly exacting high-temperature application, a short 5 m capillary column of extreme temperature stability has been used. As well as modification of various analytical conditions different injection techniques have been investigated. On-column, PTV and split injection were compared with regard to repeatability. The cold-on-column injection technique was found to produce the best results, being comparable to the excellent precision of a packed column. Thus, a method is now available by means of which the determination of milk fat parameters by the triglyceride formulae, such as the amount of foreign fats in milk fat, can now be carried out with a standardized capillary column.

    Notes: Summary This paper reports a quick, and simple method for quantitative determination of C2 to C6 hydrocarbons in stabilized crude oil without using a back flush system. A mixture of crude oil and internal standard is injected into a GC equipped with a 6 meter length of fused silica capillary as a guard column. The light hydrocarbons are separated individually up to the last peak of the hexane group with the heavier components trapped in the guard column. The total analysis time for each sample is 15 minutes. The base line is table for up to 15 consecutive analyses. The guard column and the injector port are then reconditioned by simply heating them for one hour at 300 °C.

    Notes: Summary Experimental studies were carried out to investigate the utility of pentosan polysulfate as a low molecular weight polyelectrolyte displacer for the purification of proteins in anion-exchange displacement systems. In addition, the influence of mobile phase salt concentration on displacer efficacy, protein-protein resolution, and displacement development were studied for several anionic displacers. It was found that while large polyelectrolytes (50 kd dextran sulfate) were efficient displacers for a wide range of salt concentrations, relatively small polyelectrolytes (3 kd pentosan polysulfate) were seen to act as an efficient displacer only under conditions of high salt micro-environments. In addition, for proteins exhibiting similar affinities, zone mixing at the protein-protein boundary was found to be quite sensitive to the salt concentration. Finally, displacement chromatography was successfully implemented for the separation of proteins from milk whey.

    Notes: Summary Two epimers of the mycotoxin chlamydosporol were separated by HPLC on an RP-18 column using a quaternary mobile phase consisting of water (79.1%), methanol (10.0%), acetonitrile (10.4%) and tetrahydrofuran (0.5%), with a flow rate of 1 ml min−1. This optimal composition of mobile phase, with which the resolution value for the two epimers (1 and2) was 2.73 with retention times of 5.88 and 7.12 min, respectively, was achieved by the application of Philips Solvent Optimisation Software PU 6100. The presence of free silanols on the stationary phase was shown to be an essential requirement for the separation of the chlamydosporol epimers.

    Notes: Summary A sensitive and selective liquid chromatographic method, using precolumn derivatization with dansylhydrazine followed by fluorescence detection, has been developed for the determination of tacrolimus (FK 506) in whole blood. After haemolysis, whole blood samples are extracted with diethyl ether and derivatized. After on-line removal of excess dansylhydrazine on a C18 precolumn, the derivative is loaded on to a C18 clean-up column, and a heart cut is subsequently transferred to a graphitized carbon column, where the final separation takes place. The method requires 1 ml of sample and has a limit of quantitation of 3 ng/ml. At the 15 ng/ml level the precision isca 10%, and the response is linear from the limit of quantitation toca 200 ng/ml of FK 506 in whole blood. The capacity of the method is 50 samples/day and about 1000 1-ml samples can be analyzed without changing either clean-up or separation column. Finally, the applicability of the method for therapeutic drug monitoring is shown.

    Notes: Summary A variety of olefins were bonded to silaceous supports through a hydride modified substrate. The products were then examined by13C and29Si solid state-NMR with cross-polarization (CP) and magic angle spinning (MAS). Information about the surface was also obtained by diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFT) and the related photoelectron spectroscopic technique (ESCA). Carbon analysis on bonded silicas was carried out and surface coverage was calculated. Confirmation of the organic groups bound to the silica support was possible. The hydride intermediate is shown to be a versatile material for bonding a wide variety of organic moieties to silica surfaces.

The hydroperoxides were separated from the thermal-oxidised mixture by solid-phase extraction, fractionated and individually collected by HPLC. Each hydroperoxide was then chemically reduced with NaBH4 to a hydroxy-derivative. The GC and MS characteristics of hydroxy- and TMS-derivatives were compared against available standards. Only 7β-hydroperoxide and 7α-hydro-peroxide of cholesteryl acetate were found, as reported in the literature for cholesterol.

    Notes: Summary The retention behavior of aromatic hydrocarbons on anion-exchangers modified with alkylsulfate or alkanesulfonate has been examined by column liquid chromatography. Several parameters affected the retention of analytes, involving concentration of the modifier in the mobile phase, its alkyl chain length and mobile phase composition. Stationary phases modified with a reagent having longer alkyl chains achieved better column efficiency. The separation factor achieved on ion-exchange-induced stationary phases foro-terphenyl and triphenylene was larger than that on alkyl-bonded silica gel.

McReynolds phase constants and Abrahams explanatory coefficients can be used with similar accuracy for the prediction of relative retention data and for the characterization of stationary phases in gas chromatography. The application of polarity constants for the characterization of stationary phases is discussed.

    Notes: Summary Two liquid chromatography-particle beam mass spectrometry (LC-PBMS) systems have been used for analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolites in water samples from a biological decomposition model experiment. The results were compared with those obtained by classical gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Evaluation of spectral data indicated the presence of six main metabolites; 1H,3H-naphtho [1,8-cd]pyran-1,3-dione, 1-(hydroxymethyl)naphthalene, and 1,2-acenaphthenedione were identified by use of standard substances and spiking experiments. Enrichment of the investigated water samples with online pre-column (C18) concentration, freeze-drying, and solvent extraction led to similar results with only slight differences. The application of microbore separation columns proved to be a promising tool in particle beam LC-MS measurements.

    Notes: Summary A homemade cryogenic system derived from readily available material is described, illustrating its usage as an accessory for adsorption/thermal desorption chromatography. A small Chromsorb-W-HP packing (1 cm) was introduced into a deactivated precolumn as a cryofocussing, preconcentrating unit. This was able to retain the analyte which had been thermally desorpted from a Tenax TA sampling tube at a relatively higher temperature (−80°C∼−90°C), with the analyte also reinjected on the analytical column in a relatively narrow band. Average overall recoveries for 24 hydrocarbons tested were 97.5%. Cryofocussing enhanced sensitivity and improved resolution. Field studies at a petroleum industry site were carried out and the accessory proved to be useful for complex C5−C12 hydrocarbon analysis in ambient air.

    Notes: Summary A size monodispersed restricted-access polymeric packing material has been prepared through a simple and easy one-step method of co-polymerization of glycerol monomethacrylate and glycerol dimethacrylate with cyclohexanol as prorogen. A typical seeded polymerization (two step swelling and polymerization method) in an aqueous medium gave a 90 % yield of porous beads which could be utilized as a packing material in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) without any size classification due to the excellent size monodispersity. A BET measurement and size exclusion chromatography in either tetrahydrofuran or water revealed that the prepared material had only small pores (around 100 Å in diameter). It showed ample hydrophobicity for the separation of hydrophilic drug molecules in 10% aqueous acetonitrile buffer, while polypeptides such as bovine serum albumin were excluded and eluted before the void volume of the column with quantitative recovery.

    Notes: Summary A multicolumn (MC) HPLC method for the determination of 1-nitropyrene (1-NP) at trace-levels via on-line reduction to 1-aminopyrene and fluorescence detection is presented. On the first column, packed with a pyrenebutyric acid amide stationary phase, the nitro-derivatives of PAHs are strongly retained and separated from other matrix components. The nitro-PAHs-containing fractions are transferred onto a RP18-column via stepwise gradient elution and finally separated according to their various lipophilicities and sizes. To increase the overall selectivity and sensitivity of the multidimensional method (MD-HPLC system) post-column, on-line reduction of the nitro-PAHs to the respective amino-PAHs via a short catalysis column is performed thus enhancing the sensitivity significantly (to low pg levels). The applicability of this method for the determination of trace amounts of 1-NP in real samples (diesel particulate extracts) is demonstrated.

    Notes: Summary This paper reports a theoretical model of the ECD detector. The model presented here can be used to examine the influence of pulse parameters on the current and signal characteristics of the detector. On the basis of this model it was found that a space charge is created in the detector when it is supplied with pulse voltage. Due to the electric potential generated by the space charge, in the time between the pulses the electrons and negative ions move towards the detector electrodes. The ionization current of the detector is the sum of the electron current flowing to the anode under the influence of the supplied pulse voltage and the current flowing under the space charge potential in the time between the pulses. It was also found that the detector signal is the sum of the differences between those two currents caused by introducing the sample molecules to the detector. The model was tested for a detector with different electrode configurations which worked at temperature of 300 K or 573 K and which was supplied with nitrogen or Ar+10% CH4 as the carrier gas.

    Notes: Summary The chromatographic retention behaviour of two liquidcrystal bonded phases have been evaluated using polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as the probe samples in reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The results clearly indicate that these phases have better planarity and shape recognition capabilities than commercially-avaialble polymeric octadecylsilica (ODS) phases whose strong planarity and shape selectivities were found earlier. It can also be concluded from the chromatographic observations that the shape recognition capability of these phases is dependent on both mobile phase composition and column temperature, but that the effect of mobile phase and temperature on the shape selectivity work independently. The retention behaviour can be explained by changes in the phase structure with changes of eluent composition and temperature.

    Notes: Summary A fluorometric method has been developed for the determination of norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine by high-performance liquid chromatography. Catecholamines extracted from urine were separated by reversed-phase chromatography with an alkaline mobile phase (pH 8.0, 20 mM sodium tetraborate containing 30 mM 1-butaneboronic acid) and were fluorometrically detected (Ex 400 nm and EM 475 nm) via in-line derivatization at high temperature (100 °C). Retention times for norepinephrine, epinephrine, dopamine and isoproterenol as an internal standard were 8, 10, 13 and 28 min, respectively. Calibration curves for these compounds were linear from 4 to 100 ng/ml standard solution. The detection limit (signalto noise ratio=3) for norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine was 0.1, 0.2 and 0.8 ng. The assay of catecholamines in human urine is also described.

    Notes: Summary The possibility of using short gas chromatographic columns packed with different molecular sieves (silicalite and aluminophosphates), showing definite selectivity to para-isomeric compounds, in series with columns containing a liquid stationary phase was investigated. The molecular sieves were of different origin, while 1,2,3-tris (2-cyanoethoxy)propane (TCEP) and polyethylene glycol adipate (PEGA) were used as the liquid stationary phase. Ortho-, meta- and para-isomers of xylene, chlorotoluene and dichlorobenzene were chromatographed on these columns. It is shown that the best separation is obtained on a combined column with silicalite containing pure silica gel as the molecular sieve, and 10% PEGA as the liquid phase. Molecular sieves of aluminophosphate origin show only weak selectivity toward the para isomers.

The derivatization reaction is rapid under mild reaction conditions (10 min at ambient temperature and pH 7.5) and the excess reagent can be removed by liquid-liquid extraction. The thiol adducts were chromatographed on a C-8 column using 0.05 M triethylammonium phosphate (pH 4.0) — acetonitrile 68∶32 (v/v), as the mobile phase; UV and fluorescence detection (lem 450 nm, lexc 300 nm) were both used. The structure of the thiol adducts was confirmed by1H and13C NMR spectra using sodium methanethiolate as thiol nucleophile.

    Notes: Summary The most popular eluents for SCIC are organic acids and their salts with one or more kinds of ion taking part in the elution process. These ions compete for ion-exchange equilibria. After an injection, the equilibria are disturbed and a re-equilibration process occurs resulting in extraneous peaks (system peak). A mechanism based on these aspects is proposed which is used successfully in the interpretation of the effects of sample properties and eluent parameters on system peaks. Experiments in the analysis of both cations and anions have been carried out to support this mechanism with eluents comprising two kinds of eluent ions. An equation for capacity factors in such systems is also derived.

    Notes: Summary For the first time a direct comparison of the kinetic performance of narrow-bore (5–15 μm I.D.) opentubular columns (OTCs) and conventional packed columns in LC was carried out with stationary and mobile phases with identical chemical composition. The polymeric stationary phase was a polymethyloctadecylsiloxane (PMSC18) and the columns were evaluated in reversed-phase LC. In the open-tubular columns oncolumn detection was performed with laser-induced fluorescence. The observed column performance is presented in various ways, to take account of the basic differences of OTCs and packed columns. Experimental data was compared with theoretical models by use of a curve fitting procedure. The static coating method generates OTCs that perform close to theoretical predictions, and the packed columns were outperformed by the OTCs with regard to efficiency. A 6 m long and 6.3 μm I.D. OTC showed a minimum reduced plate height, hmin. of 0.5 at k′=0.27, which equals 1 900 000 theoretical plates. Also, it was established that the open-tubular columns provide higher resolution in a given analysis time. However, the importance of sufficient retention in OTCs is once again substantiated. Peak capacity plots illustrate that the k′ “window” should be optimized in order to reach maximum resolution (k′ 0–2 for OTCs and 0–5 for packed columns).
