HIGH PERFORMANCE LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY

By Khizar Abbas

HPLC
TECHNIQUE USED TO SEPARATE COMPONENT OF MIXTURE BY USING A VARIETY OF CHEMICAL INTERACTIONS B/W THE SUBSTANCE BEING ANALYZED & THE CHROMATOGRAPHIC COLUMN

Types of HPLC
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Normal phase chromatography Reversed phase chromatography Size exclusion chromatography Ion exchange chromatography Bioaffinity chromatography

Mode of separation
It depends upon nature of stationary phase. Five modes Adsorption Partition Ion exchange Size exclusion affinity

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

PRINCIPLE
SAMPLE TO BE ANALYZED IS INTRODUCED IN SMALL VOLUME IN THE MOBILE PHASE RETARDED BY SPECIFIC CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL INTERACTION WITH STARIONARY PHASE

THE AMOUNT OF RETARDATION DEPENDS ON 1. THE NATURE OF ANALYTE 2. NATURE OF STATIONARY PHASE 3. COMPOSITION OF MOBILE PHASE

SOLVENTS USED
Miscible combination of water Various organic liquids Methanol Acetonitrile Water may contain salt or buffer like Trifluroacetic Acid which assist in the separation of analyte component

STATIONARY PHASE
The stationary phase is packed in column In NP-HPLC It may be Silica,Alumina or porous graphite In RPC-HPLC it is modified Silica,Alumina or Porous Graphite For ion-exchange it may be Resin or polymer with Acid or Base group In SEC porous silica or polymers are used In Chiral Chromatography cellulose or amylase derivatives are used

PARTS OF HPLC

MAJOR PARTS OF HPLC


1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. SOLVENT RESVIOR PUMP SAMPLE INJECTORS SAMPLING VALVES & LOOPS COLUMN DETECTORS

SOLVENT RESVIOR
HPLC uses a liquid to push a sample This liquid is called MOBILE PHASE or simply solvent

PUMP
PUMPS are used to pump the solvent through the HPLC The pressure used is sometime so high 1900 psi

Different types of Pumps


Reciprocating piston pump Syringe type pump Constant pressure pump

SAMPLE INJECTORS
Syringe is used to inject the sample into HPLC Normal syringe is used to inject sample by hand Auto injector can automatically inject a whole series of sample

COLUMN
Most important part of HPLC Where work gets down It is a long open tube that is coated with a stationary phase Mobile phase pushes the sample into the column Small molecules in sample pass very quickly Large molecules get caught in stationary phase

TYPES OF COLUMN
1. 2. 3. 4. GUARD COLUMN DERIVATIZING COLUMN CAPILLARY COLUMN MICROBORE OR SMALL BORE COLUMN 5. FAST COLUMN 6. PREPARATORY COLUMN

DETECTORS
Detectors are the component of an HPLC that emits a response due to eluting sample & subsequently signals a peak on the chromatogram

TYPES OF DETECTORS
1. 2. 3. 4. Refractive index detector Ultra-Violet detector Fluorescent detector Radiochemical detector

5.
6. 7. 8. 9.

Electrochemical detector
Mass Spectroscopy detector Nuclear Magnetic Resonance detector Light Scattering detector Near Infrared detector

RETENTION TIME
Time taken for a particular compound to travel through the column to the detector. Retention time depend on Pressure used Nature of stationary phase Composition of mobile phase Temperature of the column

Applications;
HPLC is used in analysis, separation and purification of a large verity of components, like Proteins, Peptides and Amino Acids Nucleic Acids Saccharides and Organic Acids Drugs, Metabolites and Chiral Compounds Vitamins, Hormones and Lipids Pesticide Residue, Synthetic Polymers Anions and Cations

Conclusion
It is highly sophisticated technique which has revolutionized pharmaceutical industry. It is time saving process Further research is going in this field would lead to more reliable and efficacy of results.
