Within the frame of inprocess analytics of the synthesis of pharmaceutical drugs a lot of HPLC methods are required for checking the quality of intermediates and drug substances. The methods have to be developed in terms of optimal selectivity and low limit of detection, minimum running time and chromatographic robustness. The goal was to shorten the method development process. Therefore, the screening of stationary phases was automated by means of switching modules equipped with 12 HPLC columns. Mobile phase and temperature could be optimized by using Drylab after evaluating chromatograms of gradient elutions performed automatically. The column switching module was applied for more than three dozens of substances, e.g. steroidal intermediates. Resolution (especially of isomeres), peak shape and number of peaks turned out to be the criteria for selection of the appropriate stationary phase. On the basis of the "best" column the composition of the "best" eluent was usually defined rapidly and with less effort. This approach leads to savings in manpower by more than one third. Overnight, impurity profiles of the intermediates were obtained yielding robust HPLC methods with high selectivity and minimized elution time.
The negative interference of conjugated, unconjugated, and delta bilirubin on patient serum creatinine determined by the kinetic Jaffe reaction is the unresolved problem. We compared bilirubin interference on thirty patients' serum creatinine obtained from four analyzers, with and without deprotenization before the Jaffe reaction, to the Vitros dry enzymatic method. We found significant negative interference from bilirubin on serum creatinine in all samples directly applied to four wet chemical methods, except the one incorporated with serum blank rate. The negative interferences linearly related to bilirubin concentration. However, bilirubin did not interfere on serum creatinine obtained from all wet chemical methods incorporated with deproteinization process before the reaction. We conclude that deproteinized serum before the reaction is the best approach to eliminate all forms of bilirubin interference on serum creatinine determined by the kinetic Jaffe reaction.
Reversed phase liquid chromatography was combined with the multiple stage mass analysis capability of an ion trap mass spectrometer for the characterization of permethylated oligosaccharide mixtures. The new method was used to separate the components of an unlabeled permethylated maltooligomer ladder, a 2-aminobenzamide-labeled (2-AB) maltooligomer ladder, a complex mixture of 2AB-labeled bi- (B), tri- (T), and tetraantennary (Q) standards, and a mixture of recombinant glycoprotein carbohydrates from soluble CD4 with varying sialic acid (S) content. Using reversed phase HPLC, permethylated mixture components including alpha and beta anomers were separated based on their structures. Fluorescent labeling with 2-aminobenzamide prior to permethylation was employed for off-line method development, but was not necessarily required for mass spectral analysis, as permethylation alone improved the ionization and fragmentation characteristics of the molecules. Antennae composition of permethylated derivatives was determined in MS(2) where the fragmentation patterns of the Y- and B-ion series predominated, and then further evaluated in MS(3), which provided additional information on branching obtained from A and X cross-ring fragmentation.
