The newest achievements in the application of miscellaneous liquid chromatographic techniques such as size-exclusion, ion-exchange and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, and thin-layer chromatography for the elucidation of the various aspects of the binding of ligands to proteins are compiled and briefly discussed. Examples of employment in pharmaceutical and clinical chemis...

Hydrophobic long-chain alkyl ethers of Sephadex have been synthesized and tested for use in liquid chromatography. With columns prepared in such polar solvents as methanol, reversed-phase systems are obtained where compounds separate in order of decreasing polarity. In such non-polar solvents as heptane, straight-phase systems are formed, and separations occur in order of increasing polarity. T...

The requirements of liquid chromatography (LC) separation systems to separate proteins are often different from those of small molecules as the inherent properties of proteins can result in loss by adsorption, precipitation at zero charge or broad and asymmetric peaks in liquid chromatography. This article looks at the specific separation problems of proteins; the advantages and disadvantages o...

a solid-phase extraction (spe) method for sample clean-up and preconcentration followed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (rp-hplc) with uv detection is reported for determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) in the caspian seawater. a good resolution was obtained using acetonitrile:water (40:60) as mobile-phase for separation of these compounds. the effect ...

Hydrophobicity is an important physicochemical property of peptides in solution. As well as being strongly associated with peptide stability and aggregation, hydrophobicity governs the solution based chromatographic separation processes, specifically reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC). In addition, a major comparison to H-bonding, electrostatic, aromatic properties intermolecular inter...

The basic retention mechanisms of reversed-phase and hydrophilic-interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) were quantitatively analyzed using simple molecular mechanics (MM) calculations. The model bonded phases were composed of an alkyl chain bonded to siloxane-like molecules. The head of the alkyl chain was a hydroxyl group, used to study retention mechanisms of HILIC. The standard analytes w...

Solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedures were developed for rapid cleanup and determination of thiabendazole and carbendazim in orange, apple, and grape juices. Samples were prepared by using an SPE cartridge containing a mixed-mode sorbent with both reversed-phase and strong cation-exchange chemistries. Analysis was by liquid chromatography with photodiode-array UV detection. Orange juice was a...
