As resin-based composites (RBC) replace dental amalgam for environmental reasons, there is a requirement to understand the impact of this alternative restorative material. In study we standardize simultaneous detection five monomeric components associated with RBCs using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled solid-phase microextraction (SPME). Factors affecting method (detection...

& In an HPLC system the detector is the component responsible for turning a physical or chemical attribute into a measureable signal corresponding to concentration or identity. In the early days of HPLC, detection was often carried out by collecting fractions and analyzing them off-line. It wasn’t until the 1940’s and 1950’s that the first online detectors for HPLC were introduced. Certainly an...

A nonpeptide opioid was found in toad skin and purified to homogeneity by using HPLC with electrochemical detection. A nonpeptide opioid also was detected in bovine brain and adrenals as well as rabbit and rat skin, by reversed-phase HPLC following Sephadex G-15 column chromatography. The material in toad skin was identical to morphine by immunological, pharmacological, and physical chemical cr...

BACKGROUND Urinary albumin detection by immunonephelometry is decreased by approximately 30% in samples that have been frozen at -20 degrees C. An HPLC method for assessment of urinary albumin that detects immunoreactive and immunochemically nonreactive albumin has been introduced as an alternative to immunonephelometry. We investigated whether this technique is affected by sample temperature, ...

HPLC methods have been developed for the assay of bisacodyl in various pharmaceutical forms. The extraction procedures are simple and the HPLC conditions separate bisacodyl from its degradation products. The chromatography was performed using a Merck LiChrospher RP-select B column, a mobile phase of 55% acetonitrile/45% 0.05 M KH2PO4 and detection by UV at 214 nm.

One of the key concerns of the people and the government of China is food safety. After the use of melamine as an additive was reported in 2008, melamine detection was required in milk. The current methods to detect and confirm melamine are mainly HPLC and HPLC-MS/MS, but the pre-treatment processes include some tedious steps making them time-consuming and environmentally unfriendly. In contras...

Apigenin is best known as an irreversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase (MAO), an intracellular enzyme associated with the outer membrane of mitochondria. The purpose of this study is to establish a reliable and quick method for the assignment of Apigenin in Cosmos bipinnatus, Apium graveolens and Petroselinum crispum by high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-U...

BACKGROUND A method is described for the simultaneous analysis of nicotine and two of its major metabolites, cotinine and 3-hydroxycotinine, as well as for caffeine from urine samples. The method was developed to assess exposure of restaurant and hotel workers to environmental tobacco smoke. METHODS The method includes sample pretreatment and reversed-phase HPLC separation with tandem mass sp...

A reliable solid-phase extraction – high-performance liquid chromatography (SPE-HPLC) method for the determination of flavonoids in European Bupleurum species B. baldense Turra and B. affine Sadler was developed. Extraction of aerial parts by ultrasound with 80% aqueous methanol and fractionation of flavonoids by means of SPE allowed a good recovery of analytes between 99 and 104%. The subseque...
