Background and Objectives: A method was developed and validated for determining 15 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in refined olive and refined pomace olive oils using high performance liquid chromatography coupled with a fluorescence detector. Materials and Methods: The sample preparation involved liquid–liquid extraction with organic solvent and low temperature clean-up. The low temp...

Background & Aims: In this study, using a liquid-liquid microextraction method for pre-concentration trace amounts of aflatoxins, the amount of Aflatoxins B1 and B2 in powdered milk was determined. Determination of aflatoxins was done by using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with fluorescent detector. Method: Samples were extracted by immunoaffinity column (IAC) clean-up, and the...

A system which consisted of multidimensional liquid chromatography (Yin-yang MDLC) coupled with mass spectrometry was used for the identification of peptides and phosphopeptides. The multidimensional liquid chromatography combines the strong-cation exchange (SCX), strong-anion exchange (SAX), and reverse-phase methods for the separation. Protein digests were first loaded on an SCX column. The f...

Efficient tuberculosis treatment requires the use of good quality medicines. The present study developed a method of dosage by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) coupled with the dissolution of a combination of fixed doses of four anti-tuberculous (Isoniazid, Pyrazinamide, Ethambutol Hydrochlorate, Rifampicine). The elaborated protocol was thereafter used to assess the quality of med...

the chemical components in the decoctions of chinese herbal medicines are not always the same as those in the crude herbs because of the insolubility or instability of some compounds. in this work, a high-performance liquid chromatography (hplc) coupled with electrospray ionization (esi) tandem mass spectrometry method was developed to explore dynamic variation patterns of aconitum alkaloids in...

The technique of coupling liquid chromatography to inductively plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is reviewed. A brief introduction to the ICP-MS instrument is given as well as methods to couple the two analytical instruments together. The various types of LC that have been used with ICP-MS detection are discussed and advantages over traditional methods of detection are highlighted, such as the ...

separation of ten sedative- hypnotic drugs was performed by rp-hplc using mixed micellar mobile phase. effect of temperature, type and amount of organic modifier in mobile phase on efficiency (n) and asymmetry factor (b/a) showed that, the appropriate conditions for a good separation were 35°c and 7% (v/v) butanol in mobile phase.  variations of selectivity factor versus butanol concentration, ...

The analysis of complex samples is facilitated by the emergence two-dimensional liquid chromatography. Despite optimization efforts to reach tremendous peak capacities, separation neutral compounds remains limited. Indeed, most combinations chromatographic modes suffer either from a lack orthogonality or serious solvent incompatibilities. involving combination chromatography and supercritical f...

A high performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry method was developed for the fast and accurate analysis of arsenobetaine in fish samples extracted by accelerated solvent extraction. The combined extraction and analysis approach was validated using certified reference materials for arsenobetaine in fish and during a European intercomparison exercise with a b...
