A robust and rapid analysis method was developed and validated for the simultaneous assay of paclitaxel (PTX) and lapatinib (LPT) in a polymeric micelle formulation as a novel drug delivery system using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The assay was performed using the C18 MZ-Analytical Column (5 μm, 150 × 4.6 mm, OSD-3) which was protected with the C18 pre-column (5 μm, 4.0 × 4.6...

We demonstrated a novel tandem-column micro-gas chromatography (microGC) based on optofluidic ring resonator (OFRR). The OFRR is a thin-walled fused silica capillary whose interior surface is coated with a polymeric stationary phase. The circular cross section of the OFRR forms the micro-ring resonator and supports whispering gallery modes (WGMs). Via tapered optical fibers in contact with the ...

Reliable, sensitive and automatable analytical methodology is of great value in e.g. cancer diagnostics. In this context, an on-line system for enzymatic cleavage of proteins, subsequent peptide separation by liquid chromatography (LC) with mass spectrometric detection has been developed using "sub-chip" columns (10-20 μm inner diameter, ID). The system could detect attomole amounts of isolated...

Emission spectra from a DC plasma discharge of nitrogen with a graphite cathode used for deposition of CNx layers were investigated in the visible range 350-900 nm. The spectra recorded at low and high resolution from both the negative glow and the positive column of the discharge were studied separately. All spectra are dominated by neutral and ionised N2 emission. In the positive column the v...

bering system). The four pyrrole rings are designated A, B, C and D. The -positions, which are usually substituted with acetic acid (Ac), propionic acid (Pr), methyl (Me), ethyl (Et) and vinyl (V) groups, are numbered 1}8. The four methine bridges or mesopositions are denoted , , and . to a macroporous molecule is fractional but by using very small particle diameters it can be increased somewha...

Article history: Received on: 01/11/2015 Revised on: 26/11/2015 Accepted on: 22/12/2015 Available online: 27/02/2016 Liquid chromatographic method was developed and validated for quantitative determination of quinine in polymeric nanoparticles. The method was performed using a Waters RP-18 column using a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile:water:triethylamine (60:40:0.01 v/v/v, and pH aqueo...

Field-flow fractionation (FFF) is introduced as a one-phase chromatographic system utilizing an external field to differentially retain high molecular weight polymeric and particulate species. The principles and theory of FFF are described. FFF and exclusion chromatography are then compared on the basis of their underlying separative mechanisms, and the way that these mechanisms influence and l...
