In-line HPLC

The quality of the sample influences the quality of the data obtained by MALDI-TOFF. Contaminations inhibit ionization. As no in-line HPLC system is included in the system, contaminants cannot be removed from the sample. Fortunately, some new clean up tools (e.g., ZipTips) for removal of contaminants have been developed recently (Figure 5.5). [Pg.108]

Currently, UPLC or high-pressure HPLC/UV detection using sub-2-/column packing material has the potential of 2-min gradient samples analysis times for IPCs (e.g., COR, impurity determination, or solution concentration). Waters Patrol UPLC offers in-line and off-line versions. Real-time in-line HPLC has not been used on a regular basis in development enviroments. Most reactors are sampled manually with analysis performed off-line. [Pg.423]

Recent patents and pubHcations describe process improvements. Conversions can be followed by on-line hplc (93). The enzyme amidase can be used to reduce residual monomers (94—96). A hydrogenation process for reduction of acrylamide in emulsions containing more that 5% residual monomer has been patented (95). Biodegradable oils have been developed (97). [Pg.143]

Mondello et al. (54) have developed some applications of on-line HPLC-HRGC and HPLC-HRGC/MS in the analysis of citrus essential oils. In particular, they used LC-GC to determine the enantiomeric ratios of monoterpene alcohols in lemon, mandarin, bitter orange and sweet orange oils. LC-GC/MS was used to study the composition of the most common citrus peel, citrus leaf (petitgrain) and flower (neroli) oils. The oils were separated into two fractions, i.e. mono- and sesquiterpene... [Pg.236]

One of the major problems with this type of interface, not unsurprisingly, is clogging of the pinhole. For this reason, the HPLC system has to be kept scrupulously clean with solvents being passed through narrow filters to remove any solid particles and in-line filters being incorporated to ensure that column material does not find its way into the probe.

Figure 4.18. Peak-size correlation in an HPLC-chromatogram. The impurity profile of a chemical intermediate shown in the middle contains peaks that betray the presence of at least two reaction pathways. The strength of the correlation between peak areas is schematically indicated by the thickness of the horizontal lines below the chromatogram. The top panel gives the mean and standard deviation of some peak areas (n = 21) the two groups of peaks immediately before and after the main peak were integrated as peak groups.

The high pressure continuous reactor consists of five Kenics type in-line static mixers, that were connected in series [3]. Each reactor unit has 27 Kenics elements and dimensions of 19 cm tube length and 3.3 mm inner diameter. Acetonylacetone and 1 % NaOH aqueous solution were pumped into the in-line static mixer reactor using two independent HPLC pumps. The in-line static mixer reactors were immersed in a constant temperature controlled oil bath at 200 °C so that the reaction mixture was heated to the reaction temperature. When the reaction was completed, the fluid was cooled down rapidly in a constant temperature cold bath at 0 °C. At the end of the cooling line, a backpressure regulator was placed to allow experiments to be run at 34 bar. [Pg.810]

Besides on-line UV analysis, off-line HPLC analysis was performed after about 48 h dark reaction [72, 74]. In this period, the photoinduced reaction proceeds by radical paths in the dark. [Pg.551]

OS 87] ]R 35] ]P 67/The longer the residence time, the higher is the conversion, as expected [72, 74]. This trend is seen in the on-line UV- and off-line HPLC spectra. Whereas on-line UV absorption showed zero conversion at too short a residence time (flow rate 10 pi min ), a level of about 50% was found in the HPLC analysis. This clearly proves that the reaction proceeds by a radical path in the dark, if sufficient time is given. [Pg.552]

Several applications of on-line HPLC used as temporary installations for process monitoring are presented in this section. These case histories include... [Pg.78]

Trace analysis is particularly attractive for SFE-HPLC since quantitative transfer of all analytes extracted to the chromatographic system becomes possible. At present, on-line SFE-HPLC appears to be feasible for qualitative analysis only quantitation is difficult due to possible pump and detector precision problems. Sample size restrictions also appear to be another significant barrier to using on-line SFE-HPLC for quantitative analysis of real samples. On-line SFE-HPLC has therefore not proven to be a very popular hyphenated sample preparatory/separation technique. Although online SFE-HPLC has not been quantitatively feasible, SFE is quite useful for quantitative determination of those analytes that must be analysed by off-line HPLC, and should not be ruled out when considering sample preparatory techniques. In most cases, all of the disadvantages mentioned with the on-line technique (Table 7.15) are eliminated. On- and off-line SFE-HPLC were reviewed [24,128]. [Pg.445]

Figure 7.22 shows the H NMR chromatogram (contour plot) of the separation of a 10% phthalate mixture in CH2CI2. The spectrum is almost free from interferences the NMR resolution is excellent, and it is possible to identify all plasticisers even at concentrations as low as 2%, which corresponds to 60 xg per component. In contrast, in on-line HPLC- H NMR separation the regions between 3.9-3.3 and 1.9-1.7 ppm are completely obscured by solvent signals. [Pg.486]

The obvious alternative for the in-line flow-through cell in HPLC-FTIR is mobile-phase elimination ( transport interfacing), first reported in 1977 [495], and now the usual way of carrying out LC-FTIR, in particular for the identification of (minor) constituents of complex mixtures. Various spray-type LC-FTIR interfaces have been developed, namely, thermospray (TSP) [496], particle-beam (PB) [497,498], electrospray (ESP) [499] and pneumatic nebulisers [486], as compared by Som-sen et al. [500]. The main advantage of the TSP-based... [Pg.491]

For microbore HPLC, with a flow of less than lOOpLmin-1, off-line LC-FT1R has been developed using matrix isolation techniques. The solutes are deposited on a moving IR salt window [504] or on a rotating plated disc [486], and are measured afterwards with the aid of a FITR microscope or a reflectance accessory. FTIR detection was first applied to the analysis of microbore HPLC eluent by Teramae and Tanaka [505]. In microbore HPLC-FTIR the amount of mobile phase required for separation is much less than for conventional scale HPLC. This simplifies both flow-cell and mobile-phase elimination interfaces. Flow-cell... [Pg.492]

Linking TLC with a tandem instrument differs from combining GC or LC with an appropriate spectrometer. Hyphenation of planar chromatographic techniques represents a niche application compared to HPLC-based methods. Due to the nature of the development process in TLC, the combination is often considered as an off-line in situ procedure rather than a truly hyphenated system. True in-line TLC tandem systems are not actually possible, as the TLC separation must be developed before the spots can be monitored. It follows that all TLC tandem instruments operate as either fraction collectors or off-line monitoring devices. Various elaborate plate extraction procedures have been developed. In all cases, TLC serves as a cleanup method. [Pg.530]

In on-line multidimensional HPLC (MDHPLC) two relatively high-efficiency columns are coupled in an instrument, via the use of valves, traps and other means. In LC-LC the precolumn is used for sample cleanup and prefractionation, before introduction of the fraction of interest to the analytical column. Much of the instrumentation for MDHPLC is the same as that in conventional one-dimensional experiments. However, the additional complexity of MDHPLC experiments leads to greater difficulties than those found in conventional HPLC ... [Pg.553]

For the analysis of nonvolatile compounds, on-line coupled microcolumn SEC-PyGC has been described [979]. Alternatively, on-line p,SEC coupled to a conventional-size LC system can be used for separation and quantitative determination of compounds, in which volatility may not allow analysis via capillary GC [976]. An automated SEC-gradient HPLC flow system for polymer analysis has been developed [980]. The high sample loading capacity available in SEC makes it an attractive technique for intermediate sample cleanup [981] prior to a more sensitive RPLC technique. Hence, this intermediate step is especially interesting for experimental purposes whenever polymer matrix interference cannot be separated from the peak of interest. Coupling of SEC to RPLC is expected to benefit from the miniaturised approach in the first dimension (no broadening). Development of the first separation step in SEC-HPLC is usually quite short, unless problems are encountered with sample/column compatibility. [Pg.556]

After passing through the column, the separated solutes are sensed by an in-line detector. The output of the detector is an electrical signal, the variation of which is displayed on a potentiometric recorder, a computing integrator or a vdu screen. Most of the popular detectors in hplc are selective devices, which means that they may not respond to all of the solutes that are present in a mixture. At present there is no universal detector for hplc that can compare with the sensitivity and performance of the flame ionisation detector used in gas chromatography. Some solutes are not easy to detect in hplc, and have to be converted into a detectable form after they emerge from the column. This approach is called post-column derivatisation. [Pg.19]

He et al. (2002) used an off-line HPLC/CE method to map cancer cell extracts. Frozen ovarian cancer cells (containing 107 cells) were reconstituted in 300 pL of deionized water and placed in an ultrasonic bath to lyse the cells. Then the suspension was centrifuged and the solubilized proteins were collected for HPLC fractionation. The HPLC separation was carried out on an instrument equipped with a RP C-4 column, 250 mm x 4.6 mm, packed with 5-pm spherical silica particles. Extracted proteins were dissolved in 300 pL of DI water, and lOOpL was injected onto the column at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. Buffer A was 0.1% TEA in water and buffer B was 0.1% TFA in acetonitrile. A two-step gradient, 15-30% B in 15 min followed by 30-70% B in 105 min, was used. The column effluent was sampled every minute into a 96-well microtiter plate with the aid of an automatic fraction collector. After collection, the fractions were dried at room temperature under vacuum. The sample in each well was reconstituted before the CE analysis with 10 pL deionized water. The... [Pg.378]
