Analysis of Weak UV-Absorbing Pharmaceutical Drug Substances Using CE with Condensation Nucleation Light-Scattering Detection

The authors descibe the use of CE with condensation nucleation light-scattering detection to analyze three pharmaceutical analytes. Because the compounds lack adequate UV chromophores, they require a more sensitive means of detection.

Ultrahigh-Efficiency Protein Separations with Submicrometer Silica Using Slip Flow

Professor Mary Wirth and graduate students Bingchuan Wei and Benjamin Rogers from Purdue University demonstrate a quantum leap in protein column efficiency. Using colloidal silica particles of submicrometer diameters (470 nm), they obtained plate heights that were as much as 15-fold lower than the theoretical limit for Hagen-Poiseuille flow.

Selective Sorbents for Solid-Phase Extraction Based on Molecularly Imprinted Polymers

Highly selective sorbents for solid-phase extraction (SPE) are desirable tools for the development of selective and sensitive methods for trace analysis. Molecular imprinting is an emerging technique that can yield analyte- or group-selective polymeric sorbents.

Volumetric Absorptive Microsampling for Hepcidin Peptide Extraction from Whole Blood

Whole blood analysis is an emerging trend in the field of bioanalysis. We developed a fast and simple protocol to extract and analyze a peptide, hepcidin, from whole blood. Sampling and extraction were carried out using volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS), a novel blood collection device that allows the sampling of a known blood volume independently from hematocrit. The composition of the extraction medium was optimized using an experimental design to get the most intense signal of hepcidin, considering different organic solvents and acidic additives.
