Preparative chromatography of proteins analysis of the multivalent ion-exchange formalism.

Multivalent ion exchange is proposed as a generally applicable formalism to describe the non-linear chromatographic adsorption of biopolymers. Single- and multi-component isotherms are calculated that explicitly account for the influence of the mobile phase modulator concentration. Three regions of binding (strong, intermediate, and weak) are distinguished on the basis of strength of interaction, and the potential advantages of operating in the strong region for preparative purposes are pointed out. The inapplicability of the Langmuir isotherm in this region is demonstrated, and separation schemes that take advantage of the characteristic features of biopolymeric adsorption are described. The rectangular single-component ion-exchange isotherms are shown to reduce in the presence of competition to reversible concave-down forms.

Oscillatory transverse electric field enhances mass transfer and protein capacity in ion-exchange electrochromatography.

Ion-exchange electrochromatography with an oscillatory electric field perpendicular to mobile-phase flow driven by pressure (pIEEC) was developed with a column design of rectangle cross-section. The effect of electric field strength on the dynamic binding capacity (DBC) was examined by frontal analysis of bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption to the packed beds of DEAE Sepharose FF in Tris-glycine buffer (pH 8.2). It was shown that the DBC at 10% breakthrough (Q(10)) in the pIEEC increased linearly with increasing the electric field strength. For example, with a packed-bed height of 15mm and electric potential gradient of 38V/cm, Q(10) increased four times over that in normal ion-exchange chromatography. So, the transverse electric field has created significant electro-kinetic mass transports (electroosmosis and electrophoresis) that intensified exterior liquid-film and intraparticle mass transfers, leading to the increased protein binding capacity. Due to the increased capacity in the pIEEC, partial resolution of BSA and IgG under an overload condition was realized without any process optimization. The results have revealed that an electric potential gradient of 20V/cm was enough to greatly enhance the DBC in the pIEEC, and when necessary, high electric field strength can be realized with a low applied voltage because the side distance of the column is usually an order of magnitude smaller than its height. The use of low voltage to carry out electrochromatography is a significant advantage of the pIEEC over conventional electrochromatography with axial electric field.

Bovine plasma protein fractionation by ion exchange chromatography.

An ion exchange chromatography process was developed to separate the main protein fractions of bovine blood plasma using a composite material, Q-HyperD resin, and a gel material, DEAE-Sepharose. The experiments were carried out at semipreparative scale. It was necessary to establish analytical methods of electrophoresis and HPLC to identify the fractionated proteins. Results show that these materials are able to adequately fractionate different protein groups from the raw blood plasma. This method may be used to avoid chemical fractionation using agents such as ethanol or PEG and, thus, decrease protein denaturation of the different fractions to be used for research or pharmaceutical purposes. The Q-HyperD resin presents a better retention capacity for plasma protein than DEAE-Sepharose under the experimental conditions employed.

Effect of lipophilic ion-exchanger leaching on the detection limit of carrier-based ion-selective electrodes.

The equilibrium partitioning of lipophilic ion-exchanger salts from ion-selective polymeric membrane electrodes (ISEs) and its possible effect on the lower detection limit of these sensors is described. Predictions are made on the basis of various parameters, including the knowledge of tetraphenylborate potassium salt partitioning constants, the selectivity of ionophore-free ion-exchanger membranes, and ionophore stability constants in the membrane. Ion-exchanger lipophilicities are significantly increased if the membrane contains an ionophore that strongly binds the primary ion. Predicted detection limits are on the order of 10(-5)-10(-8) M for ionophore-free membranes, and may reach levels as low as 10(-18) M with adequate ionophores in the membrane. Experiments are performed for well-described lead-selective membranes containing different tetraphenylborate derivatives, and detection limits appear to be independent of the ion-exchanger used. However, they are much higher if a more hydrophilic carborane cation-exchanger is incorporated in the membrane. The first finding confirms recent theory, which states that transmembrane ion fluxes, given by a small level of ion-exchange at the sample side by interfering ions, normally dictate the detection limit of these sensing systems. Predicted detection limits on the basis of ion-exchanger leaching alone are here listed for a number of analytically relevant cases. For potassium-selective electrodes containing BME-44 and tetraphenylborate as ion-exchanger, the experimental detection limits are in agreement with predicted values. These results suggest that the detection limit of many current ISEs for ultratrace level analysis are, in optimal cases, dictated by transmembrane ion fluxes; however, because improved chemical solutions are being developed to reduce such effects, simple ion-exchanger partitioning may indeed become an important mechanism that can give higher detection limits than practically desired, and should not be ruled out.

Ionized calcium in normal serum, ultrafiltrates, and whole blood determined by ion-exchange electrodes.

Ion-exchange calcium electrodes represent the first practical method for the direct measurement of ionized calcium [Ca(++)] in biologic fluids. Using both "static" and "flow-through" electrodes, serum [Ca(++)] was within a rather narrow range: 0.94-1.33 mmoles/liter (mean, 1.14 mmoles/liter). Within a given individual, [Ca(++)] varied only about 6% over a several month period. Consistent pH effects on [Ca(++)] were observed in serum and whole blood, [Ca(++)] varying inversely with pH. Less consistent pH effects were also noted in ultrafiltrates, believed to largely represent precipitation of certain calcium complexes from a supersaturated solution. Heparinized whole blood [Ca(++)] was significantly less than in corresponding serum at normal blood pH, related to the formation of a calcium-heparin complex. [Ca(++)] in ultrafiltrates represented a variable fraction (66.7-90.2%) of total diffusible calcium. There was no apparent correlation between serum ionized and total calcium concentrations. Thus, neither serum total calcium nor total ultrafiltrable calcium provided a reliable index of serum [Ca(++)]. Change in serum total calcium was almost totally accounted for by corresponding change in protein-bound calcium [CaProt]. About 81% of [CaProt] was estimated to be bound to albumin and about 19% to globulins. From observed pH, serum protein, and [CaProt] data, a nomogram was developed for estimating [CaProt] without ultrafiltration. Data presented elsewhere indicate that calcium binding by serum proteins obeys the mass-law equation for a monoligand association. This was indicated in the present studies by a close correspondence of observed serum [Ca(++)] values with those predicted by the McLean-Hastings nomogram. While these electrodes allow study of numerous problems not possible previously, they have not been perfected to the same degree of reliability obtainable with current pH electrodes. The commercial (Orion flow-through) electrode is: (a) expensive. (b) requires periodic replacement of membranes, and (c) has not yet been thermostated. As with blood pH measurements. (d) electrode response is logarithmic, i.e. small potential errors generate rather large [Ca(++)] errors. (e) loss of CO(2) should be prevented, and (f) errors due to other cations must be considered under certain conditions. Despite these limitations, we believe the electrode represents a major advance in calcium metabolism.

Ion-exchange HPLC for peptide purification.

Ion exchange HPLC is a very useful but underutilized tool for peptide purification. Ion exchangers provide separations that are complementary to reversed-phase HPLC. Purification procedures utilizing both ion exchange and reversed-phase modes have greatly increased resolving power compared to procedures that use reversed-phase alone. This increased resolution is particularly useful for the purification of natural peptides from complex tissue extracts and for synthetic peptides from the many structurally similar byproducts of synthesis and HF cleavage. The high capacity of ion-exchange HPLC columns allows them to be used at the front end of a purification scheme, reducing the sample load on subsequent reversed-phase columns. In addition to improving overall resolution in a purification scheme, the charge selectivity of ion exchangers solves specific resolution problems involving charge differences between peptides.

Biological ion exchanger resins. VII. Counter-ion activity coefficients in solutions of biological polyelectrolytes.

The single ion activity coefficients of K+ and Cl- counter-ions were determined in concentrated polyelectrolyte solutions. The polyelectrolytes investigated included DNA and several proteins. Results indicate that ion gradients of up to 40:1 do not lower the counter-ion activity coefficient below 0.5. Thus, published values of the intracellular activity coefficient of K+ are not incompatible with cellular models utilizing cytoplasmic ion exchange.

The electrode responds rapidly and reproducibly to activity of calcium ion and demonstrates a selective response for calcium ion in the presence of alkaline earth and alkali metal cations.

Preparative high-performance liquid chromatographic separation of proteins with HyperD ion-exchange supports.

HyperD ion-exchange media combine the mechanical strength of a rigid polystyrene-mineral composite skeleton with the high protein-binding capacity of a three-dimensional soft gel located inside the skeleton. The skeleton solid matrix is completely filled with functionalized, highly hydrophilic, chemically stable ion-exchange hydrogels. These materials gave very efficient columns for protein separation with superior dynamic capacity, high resolving power and excellent protein recovery. Various protein mixtures were used to study the chromatographic performance of these new stationary phases. Comparisons between different particle size packing materials demonstrated the potential of this ion-exchange material for use on a large scale.

Adsorption of fluoride, phosphate, and arsenate ions on a new type of ion exchange fiber.

A new type of ion exchange fiber for the removal of fluoride, phosphate, and arsenate ions has been developed. A batch adsorption technique for investigating adsorption kinetic and equilibrium parameters and determining pH adsorption edges is applied. It is shown that the adsorption properties of the ion exchange fiber for fluoride, phosphate, and arsenate ions depend on the pH value and anion concentration. The adsorption of arsenate on the sorbent reaches a maximum of 97.9% in the pH value range of 3.5 to 7.0. The adsorption percentage of phosphate is more than 99% in the pH range of 3.0 to 5.5. The adsorption of fluoride on the ion exchange fiber is found to be 90.4% at pH 3.0. The Freundlich model can describe the adsorption equilibrium data of fluoride, arsenate, and phosphate anions. The sorption of the three anions on the ion exchange fiber is a rapid process, and the adsorption kinetic data can be simulated very well by the pseudo-second-order rate equation. The column performance is carried out to assess the applicability of the ion exchange fiber for the removal of fluoride, phosphate, and arsenate ions from synthetic wastewaters with satisfactory removal efficiency. The desorption experiment shows that fluoride ion sorbed by the fiber column can be quantitatively desorbed with 5 mL of 0.50 mol/L NaOH at elution rate of 1 mL/min, and 30 mL of NaOH is necessary for the quantitative recovery of phosphate and arsenate ions.

Studies of the effect of variation of blend ratio on permselectivity and heterogeneity of ion-exchange membranes.

Heterogeneous ion-exchange membranes (both cationic and anionic types) have been synthesized by solution casting techniques using polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as binder and ion-exchange resin (-300+400 mesh). The binder:resin ratio varied from 60:40 to 30:70. The transport behavior of the membranes has been evaluated chronopotentiometrically in sodium chloride (NaCl) solutions of different concentrations. The different parameters E(0) (potential drop across the membrane at the instant of application of current I), E(max) (maximum potential drop across the membrane after the application of current I), DeltaE (magnitude of the potential jump across the membrane at transition time tau), Itau(1/2), tau, etc., have been evaluated. The isoconductance points were determined and based on the microheterogeneous model proposed by Zabolotsky and Nikonenko (J. Membrane Sci. 79 (1993) 181) the distribution factors beta has been evaluated for both types of ion exchange membranes. The electroconductivity of the joint gel (kappa ) and pure gel phases (kappa ' ) has been determined. At any particular solution concentration the transport number as well as the permselectivity of membranes increases with increased resin content of the membrane. The microheterogeneity factor beta exhibits synchronization among the each set of four different membranes for both the cationic and anionic type.

Biological ion exchanger resins. I. Quantitative electrostatic correspondence of fixed charge and mobile counter ion.

Utilizing Escherichia coli as the prototype of an ion-accumulating cell, the ion exchange isotherm is introduced as a concise method of characterizing biological ion exchange events. The ion exchange isotherm for the alkali cation exchange, K <--> Na, is described. The total charge profile of this bacterium is compiled and compared for bacteria in the Na form and in the K form. Macromolecule fixed charge was found to provide 80% of the counter ions that pair with potassium. Therefore, in its physiological state, 80% of the cell potassium in E. coli is associated with an ion exchange site on a macromolecule. The primary cation exchange sites are found to be about equally divided between carboxylate and phosphate sites indicating that E. coli is a bifunctional resin with respect to cation exchange. During substrate-dependent cation accumulation ("active transport"), phosphate esters and organic acids were shown to accumulate. One may conclude that the role of intermediate metabolism in "active transport" is to increase the ion exchange capacity of the biological resin by the production of charged metabolites that sorb to the framework of the resin.

Latex-coated polymeric monolithic ion-exchange stationary phases. 2. Micro-ion chromatography.

Latex-coated monolithic polymeric stationary phases are used for micro-ion chromatography (mu-IC) of inorganic anions. Monolithic columns were prepared by the in situ polymerization of butyl methacrylate, ethylene dimethacrylate, and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid within fused-silica capillaries of varying internal diameters. Introduction of ion-exchange sites was achieved by coating the anionic polymeric monolith with either Dionex AS10 or Dionex AS18 quaternary ammonium functionalized latex particles to give total ion-exchange capacities in the range 9-24 nequiv for a 30-cm column. The resultant mu-IC columns were used for the separation of anionic analytes using chloride or acetate as the eluent-competing ion and direct UV spectrophotometric detection at 195 nm or using hydroxide as the eluent-competing ion and suppressed or nonsuppressed contactless conductivity detection. Separation efficiencies of 13,000 plates/m were observed (for iodate), and separation efficiency was maintained for large increases in flow rate (up to 42 microL/min, corresponding to a linear flow velocity of 18.5 mm/s), enabling highly reproducible, rapid separations to be achieved (seven analyte anions in less than 2 min). Use of a hollow fiber micromembrane suppressor enabled effective suppression of hydroxide eluents over the range 0.5-5.0 mM, thereby permitting suppressed conductivity detection to be performed. However, the relatively large size of the suppressor resulted in reduced separation efficiencies (e.g., 5400 plates/m for iodate). Detection limits obtained with suppressed conductivity detection were in the range 0.4-1.2 microM.

Analytical fractionation of microsomal cytochrome P-450 isoenzymes from rat liver by high-performance ion-exchange chromatography.

Ion-exchange Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography (FPLC) on Mono Q and Mono S was optimized for the analytical separation of microsomal cytochrome P-450 species from rat liver. The effects of detergent, pH, gradient profile and column load on resolution are demonstrated. Successive application of anion- and cation-exchange chromatography leads to eleven separated P-450 fractions. The altered microsomal P450 pattern after treatment of rats with various inducers is reflected by distinct elution profiles. Sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and enzymatic analysis imply that several FPLC fractions contain more than one P-450 species. Preliminary results are presented showing the suitability of immobilized metal affinity chromatography (MAC) for general P-450 fractionation and thus for the further resolution of Mono Q and Mono S fractions. Scale-up for preparative P-450 fractionation is easily done by adapting the optimized analytical FPLC procedures to Q- and S-Sepharose Fast Flow.

Early milestones in the development of ion-exchange chromatography: a personal account.

Ion chromatography as we know it today was built on a foundation of knowledge accumulated over a period of many years. Here, we review some of the outstanding earlier achievements in ion-exchange chromatography. Beginning about 1947. Spedding and Powell at Iowa State published a series of papers describing practical methods for preparative separation of the rare earths by displacement ion-exchange chromatography. The same group then demonstrated the ion-exchange separation of 14N and 15N isotopes in ammonia. Beginning in the 1950s. Kraus and Nelson at Oak Ridge published numerous analytical methods for metal ions based on separation of their chloride, fluoride, nitrate or sulfate complexes by anion chromatography. In the period from about 1960 to 1980 many clever chromatographic methods for metal ion separations were reported by researchers throughout the world and automatic in-line detection was gradually introduced. A truly innovative method by Small, Stevens and Bauman at Dow Chemical Co. marked the birth of modern ion chromatography. Anions, as well as cations, could now be separated quickly and conveniently by a system of suppressed conductivity detection. A method for anion chromatography with non-suppressed conductivity detection was published by Gjerde et al. in 1979. This was followed by a similar method for cation chromatography in 1980. Ion chromatography as we know it today did not just happen. It was built on a solid foundation of knowledge that has accumulated over a period of many years. Revisiting the older ion-exchange chromatography serves not only to pay tribute to some remarkable accomplishments, but it can also be a learning experience. Trends and ideas in science tend to run in repeating cycles. Thus, an awareness of older work may provide inspiration for new research using improved contemporary technology. Selection of milestones is a rather personal matter. I chose to write about subjects of which I came to have a firsthand knowledge during my career. The topics selected are in roughly chronological order and cover the period from about 1945 to 1980. An effort has been made to explain the chemical principles as well as to recount the major accomplishments of the various research projects.

Adsorption of fluoride, chloride, bromide, and bromate ions on a novel ion exchanger.

A novel ion exchanger based on double hydrous oxide (Fe2O3Al2O3xH2O) was obtained by the original sol-gel method from easily available and cheap raw materials and employed for adsorption of F-, Cl-, Br-, and BrO-3 from simultaneous solutions. Adsorbent was characterized by potentiometric titration, zeta-potential, and poremetrical characteristics. A technologically attractive pH effect of F-, Br-, and BrO-3 sorption on the investigated double hydroxide of Fe and Al, which is capable of working in the pH range 3 to 8.5, was observed. Kinetic data on fluoride and bromide sorption fit well the pseudo-second-order model. Isotherms of fluoride, bromide, chlorine, and bromate ion sorption on Fe2O3Al2O3xH2O were obtained at pH 4. The isotherm of F- sorption fit well the Langmuir model; sorption affinity (K=0.52 L/mg) and sorption capacity (90 mg F/g) were high. In the competitive adsorption of bromide and bromate, bromide dominated at equilibrium concentrations of the ions >40 mg/L. The mechanism of fluoride adsorption to the surface of the model cluster of the sorbent synthesized and the geometry of the cluster itself were modeled with the HyperChem7 program using the PM3 method.
