olumn selectivity varies among different reversed-phase columns, and, sometimes, different batches of the same column. For a reversed-phase liquid chromatography (LC) assay that is to be used for several months or years, replacement columns with the same selectivity must be available for the duration of the method. For example, consider the separation in Figure 1a, which uses an Ace C8 column (...

An Agilent ZORBAX sub-2 μm Rapid Resolution High Definition (RRHD) 300SB-C8 reversed-phase column was used under optimized chromatographic conditions for delivering highly resolved ultra fast separations of reduced and alkylated monoclonal antibodies. The StableBond C8 phase and RRHD column technology, in combination with robust gradient elution conditions enabled efficient, fast, and effective...

The purification of human C8 in milligram quantities from outdated human serum was achieved by ammonium sulfate precipitation (37.5-50% saturation) and ion exchange column chromatography employing CM-32 cellulose and QAE-Sephadex. The yield of C8 activity ranged from 2-9%, and the average purification was 1,700-fold. Fully reduced C8 was shown by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to have t...

Abstract Applied as a bedside test of gross dorsal column function, the testing of light touch (LT) sensation is of high clinical value in the diagnosis of human spinal cord injury (SCI). However, the assessment of overall dorsal column deficit by testing only LT may be limited, because the dorsal column pathway conveys several large diameter afferent modalities (e.g., sensation of touch, two-p...

A ligand exchange HPLC method for enantioseparation of ofloxacin enantiomers was developed by a using C8 stationary phase. Chromatographic separation was performed on a Zorbax-300SB-C8 column eluted with the mobile phase consisting of 15 % methanol in water containing 10mM phenylalanin and 5 mM CuSO4 at flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The method was simple, rapid and suitable for routine analytical st...

1. Ten mouse monoclonal antibodies to human complement component C8 were prepared. It was found that six of these antibodies reacted with the alpha-subunit, two with the beta-subunit and two with the gamma-subunit, when assessed by immunoblotting after separation of C8 subunits by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. 2. Epitope analysis of the ten monoclonal antibodies in a competitive bindi...

Electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS) is a powerful tool for analysis of carcinogen-adducted DNA. In this study, we developed a quantitative isotope dilution method for analysis of N-(deoxyguanosine-8-yl)-4-aminobiphenyl (dG-C8-4-ABP), the principal nucleoside adduct derived from enzymatic hydrolysis of 4-aminobiphenyl (4-ABP)-modified DNA. The method used column switching valves to perform on...

A novel antifungal protein with a molecular mass around 50 kDa was purified from seeds of Sesbania virgata (Cav.) Pers. using ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by gel filtration on a Sephadex G-75 Superfine (Sigma) column and reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography on a C8 column. The protein, designated FP1-A, with a novel N-terminal sequence AMVHSPGG(S)FS(P), showed growth ...

Food Sci., 32: 430–436. 119 strains of lactic acid bacteria from Chinese pickle were tested for production of antimicrobial compounds (bacteriocins). Among them, strain C8 showed strongly antibacterial activ...

Separation of alkyl sulfate ethoxymers is investigated on various high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) stationary phases: Acclaim C18 Surfactant, Surfactant C8, and Hypercarb. For a fixed alkyl chain length, ethoxymers are eluted in the order of increasing number of ethoxylated units on Acclaim C18 Surfactant, whereas a reversed elution order is observed on Surfactant C8 and Hypercarb....
