A protected S-acetylthio porphyrin was synthesized and attached to the Au38(2-phenylethanethiolate)24 cluster in a ligand exchange reaction. Chiral high performance liquid chromatography of the functionalized cluster yielded enantiomeric pairs of clusters probably differing in the binding site of the porphyrin. As proven by circular dichroism, the chirality was maintained. Exciton coupling betw...

The publisher regrets that the following correction was not implemented in the final proof of this contribution. It should read throughout the entire article " ultra high performance liquid chromatography ". Our sincere apologies to the authors.

BACKGROUND Determining folate intake is difficult because existing folate data in food-composition tables are scarce and unreliable. OBJECTIVE The purposes of this study were first to analyze 125 of the most important foods that contribute to folate intake in the Netherlands and second to estimate the folate intake of a representative sample of the population. DESIGN We analyzed the folate ...

An high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for identification of quaternary and non-quaternary compounds (parent compounds, intermediates, by-products, and products) within the synthesis of the acetylcholinesterase reactivator HI-6, the most promising antidote of nerve agent poisonings, is described. This HPLC method could be of high interest as a quick purity control for those who...

We employ reversed-phase ion-pair high-performance liquid chromatography to quantitatively characterize the oxidation kinetics of thiourea oxidation by hydrogen peroxide. The HPLC technique makes it possible to monitor the concentrations of a variety of sulfur-containing species with different oxidation states and to elucidate the relative phase relations among them. The experimental results ar...

Protected deoxyribonucleotides were identified by field desorption mass spectrometry in eluate fractions from high performance liquid chromatography. The production of abundant cationized molecules and the formation of structural significant fragments by thermally/field induced processes allowed a direct and unambiguous identification of the synthesized products. In addition, indications can be...

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is the most versatile of the chromatographic techniques because it is applicable to a wide variety of analytes. Unfortunately, liquid mobile phases have relatively low diffusivities. A novel approach is presented for increasing the diffusivity of a liquid mobile phase. The method advocated in this study is the first process that has been described b...

We demonstrate the integration of a droplet-based microfluidic device with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in a monolithic format. Sequential operations of separation, compartmentalisation and concentration counter were conducted on a monolithic chip. This describes the use of droplet-based microfluidics for the preservation of chromatographic separations, and its potential applic...

The paper focuses on the analysis and detection of electroactive compounds using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) combined with electrochemical detection (EC). The fabrication and utilization of electrochemically treated carbon fiber microelectrodes (CFMs) as highly sensitive amperometric detectors in HPLC are described. The applied pretreatment procedure is beneficial for analytic...

A sensitive and specific high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method based upon laser-based polarimetric detection is developed for the determination of six tetracycline analogues. By interfacing the laser-based polarimeter online with an HPLC system, the specific rotation of each analogue is obtained as compounds elute from the separation system. The six structurally similar tetracycl...
