Atom-transfer radical graft polymerization initiated directly from silica applied to functionalization of stationary phases for high-performance liquid chromatography in the hydrophilic interaction chromatography mode.

Initiation of atom-transfer radical polymerization of a number of monomers (styrene, methyl acrylate, 3-[N,N-dimethyl-N-(methacryloyloxyethyl)ammonium] propanesulfonate, butyl methacrylate, 2,3-epoxypropyl methacrylate) directly from chlorinated porous silica particles has been performed. The grafting has been confirmed and evaluated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. This initiation technique results in a hydrolytically stable initial Si-C bond, tethering the polymer to the silica substrate. The resulting grafted particles have been used as separation materials for both reversed-phase and hydrophilic interaction chromatography.

Determination of an arsenosugar in oyster extracts by liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography-ultraviolet photo-oxidation-hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry.

HPLC-UV-HG-AFS analysis of aqueous extracts of oysters (Crassostrea gigas) taken from the southwestern Atlantic coast of Spain showed the presence of arsenite, arsenate, dimethylarsinic acid and an unidentified arsenic peak. Subsequent analysis of the oyster samples by LC-electrospray MS and comparison with four standard dimethylarsinoylribosides (arsenosugars), showed that the previously unidentified peak was an arsenosugar (arsenosugar 2). When the arsenosugar in the oyster was quantified using the two detection methods and external calibration with standard arsenosugar, there was a large discrepancy between the two sets of results. The LC-MS analysis was strongly affected by the sample matrix and gave concentrations 50% lower than those obtained by AFS detection. When the method of standard addition was applied to the LC-MS analysis, the results were comparable to the AFS data. The matrix effects were eliminated by subjecting the extract to a clean-up procedure with anion-exchange and gel permeation preparative chromatography before the LC-MS analysis. The arsenosugars gave a small signal without photo-oxidation when they were analysed by HPLC-HG-AFS. Possibly this resulted from partial decomposition of the arsenosugar to dimethylarsinic acid under the acidic conditions employed in the hydride generation step.

Thin-layer chromatography-pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry: a multidimensional approach to marine lipid class and molecular species analysis.

A new multidimensional chromatographic method is described in which material separated into lipid-class bands on silica-coated quartz thin-layer chromatography (TLC) rods (Chromarods) is desorbed using a pyrolysis unit interface and introduced directly into a gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer for molecular species analysis. Steryl esters, wax esters, hydrocarbons, ketones, and fatty-acid methyl esters (FAMEs) are thermally desorbed without pretreatment. In order to desorb free sterols, monoacylglycerols (MAGs), aliphatic alcohols, and free fatty acids, the esters are converted to trimethylsilyl derivatives on the rod. Triacylglycerols and phospholipids are converted to FAMEs by thermochemolysis with tetramethylammonium hydroxide. The method's utility is demonstrated with lipids from seawater particulate matter by first confirming the identity of lipid bands with the appropriate standards. The wax ester-steryl ester TLC band contained no more than 8% steryl esters. Wax esters of up to C42 are detected. In six individual acyl lipid classes, C14-C22 fatty acids are detected with C16 acids predominant in all but wax esters. C16-C22 MAGs are identified in the complex acetone-mobile polar lipid band. The method successfully extends the scope of latroscan TLC-flame-ionization detection on Chromarods, which is a widely used technique for lipid-class analysis. Modification of the pyrolysis probe to handle intact TLC rods is a future objective.

Identification of Abscisic Acid in Tulipa gesneriana L. by Gas-Liquid Chromatography with Electron Capture and Combined Gas-Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry.

A major growth inhibitory substance of tulip bulbs (Tulipa gesneriana L. cv Paul Richter) has been unequivocally shown to be abscisic acid (ABA). The ABA methyl ester of the free ether-soluble acid fractions of tulip organs had the identical retention time on gas-liquid chromatography with electron capture detector as authentic ABA methyl ester. In addition, the mass spectra were the same. On a unit dry matter basis, the basalplate and floral shoot contained 3.6 and 2.6 times more ABA than the fleshy scales, respectively.

Determination of purine bases and nucleosides by conventional and, microbore high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography with an ion-trap detector.

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the analysis of purine and pyrimidine bases, uric acid and nucleosides largely relating to the purine synthetic and degradation metabolic pathways, with particular attention to the separation of hypoxanthine, xanthine and guanine. Complete separation and quantitation of the purines has been accomplished in the nanogram-microgram scale on conventional 4.6 mm I.D. columns with a standard gradient HPLC instrumentation as well as on 1 mm I.D. microbore columns with a dedicated isocratic micro-HPLC system using a dioxane-sodium acetate buffer. For the definite identification of components in excreta of ticks a GC-MS method has been described involving formation and GC of the trimethysilyl derivatives on a 25-m DB-5 column directly coupled with an ion trap detector. The methods are demonstrated on the analysis of the purine metabolites having an assembly pheromone effect on argasid ticks.

Determination of drugs from urine by on-line immunoaffinity chromatography-high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.

A method for rapid extraction and identification of drugs in urine is described. The system utilizes a high-performance protein G immunoaffinity column coupled to a reversed-phase analytical column by use of a trapping column and switching valve. A small amount of antibody (5 micrograms drug-specific) is used for each analysis to extract either propranolol or lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) from human urine. Urine diluted with phosphate-buffered saline is pumped directly through the protein G column thus eliminating time- and solvent-consuming sample preparation procedures. On-line ultraviolet or mass spectral analysis provides the means of drug detection and identification. With ultraviolet detection propranolol may be detected in spiked urine at the 250 pg/ml level. A Hewlett-Packard mass spectrometer modified for atmospheric pressure ionization and equipped with an ion spray source allows detection of propranolol in urine at 2.5 ng/ml and LSD at 500 pg/ml using single ion monitoring. The potential applicability of the technique for drug confirmations is discussed.

Separation of major polar lipids in Pecten maximus by high-performance liquid chromatography and subsequent determination of their fatty acids using gas chromatography.

An easy method for the separation of major polar lipid classes by HPLC is described. Maximum resolution was achieved by an automated combination of a silica gel column and a diol column. Polar lipid analysis of the larvae and gonads of Pecten maximus showed the presence of a particular glycolipid especially rich in 22:6(n - 3) and the predominance of 20:4(n - 6) in the phosphatidylinositol. The phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine (diacyl form + alkenylacyl) were the major fractions. The plasmalogen form (25% in larvae, 34% in gonads) was essentially composed of polyunsaturated fatty acids of 20 and 22 carbons in the sn-2 position.

Determination of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone in plasma and urine samples of horses by high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

A method is described for the qualitative and quantitative determination of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone in horse urine and plasma samples viewing antidoping control. A horse was administered intravenously with 3 g of phenylbutazone. For the qualitative determination, a screening by HPLC was performed after acidic extraction of the urine samples and the confirmation process was realized by GC-MS. Using the proposed method it was possible to detect phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone in urine for up to 48 and 120 h, respectively. For the quantitation of these drugs the plasma was deproteinized with acetonitrile and 20 microliters were injected directly into the HPLC system equipped with a UV detector and LiChrospher RP-18 column. The mobile phase used was 0.01 M acetic acid in methanol (45:55, v/v). The limit of detection was 0.5 microgram/ml for phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone and the limit of quantitation was 1.0 microgram/ml for both drugs. Using the proposed method it was possible to quantify phenylbutazone up to 30 h and oxyphenbutazone up to 39 h after administration.

Novel solid-phase extraction protocol for 11-nor-9-carboxy-delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol from urine samples employing a polymeric mixed-mode cation-exchange resin, Strata-X-C, suitable for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry or liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis.

A novel solid-phase extraction (SPE) method was developed for extraction and cleanup of 11-nor-9-carboxy-delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC-COOH), the major metabolite of the active principle of marijuana, delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol, from urine samples. The protocol utilizes a polymeric mixed-mode cationic sorbent, Strata-X-C, which exhibits strong retention for the metabolite facilitating a more rigorous organic wash to eliminate matrix components/endogenous materials. Acetonitrile containing acetic acid was used as the elution solvent and is compatible with both LC-MS and GC-MS modes of analysis. The hydrophobic retention of Strata-X-C was demonstrated to be higher than a neutral polymeric sorbent, Strata-X, of the same backbone but devoid of the cation-exchange moiety (sulfonic acid), by LC studies employing homologous paraben probes. Simultaneously, the polar (non-ionic) interaction capability of Strata-X-C is also greater than that of Strata-X, as assessed through regioisomeric nitrophenol probes. These two features enable the metabolite to be retained strongly on Strata-X-C. Good linearity and precision was obtained for THC-COOH by GC-MS analysis of its trimethylsilyl derivative in the range 1-50 ng. A simplified room temperature instantaneous derivatization procedure was developed that is suitable for high-throughput screening of THC-COOH.
