Hollow-Fiber Liquid-Phase Microextraction of Aromatic Amines
Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Beijing, China) and the University of Science and Technology of China (Hefei, China) used a two- and three-phase hollow-fiber liquid-phase microextraction method to determine aromatic amines in environmental water samples.
Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Beijing, China) and the University of Science and Technology of China (Hefei, China) used a two- and three-phase hollow-fiber liquid-phase microextraction method to determine aromatic amines in environmental water samples. The analytes were aniline, 4-nitroaniline, 2,4-dinitroaniline, and dicloran, and they were extracted from basic aqueous samples into the organic membrane phase of the hollow fiber’s wall and then were back extracted into an acidified aqueous acceptor solution in the lumen of the fiber. According to the researchers, the method worked well with real environmental water samples with microgram per liter level analytes.
Study Explores Thin-Film Extraction of Biogenic Amines via HPLC-MS/MS
March 27th 2025Scientists from Tabriz University and the University of Tabriz explored cellulose acetate-UiO-66-COOH as an affordable coating sorbent for thin film extraction of biogenic amines from cheese and alcohol-free beverages using HPLC-MS/MS.
Multi-Step Preparative LC–MS Workflow for Peptide Purification
March 21st 2025This article introduces a multi-step preparative purification workflow for synthetic peptides using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS). The process involves optimizing separation conditions, scaling-up, fractionating, and confirming purity and recovery, using a single LC–MS system. High purity and recovery rates for synthetic peptides such as parathormone (PTH) are achieved. The method allows efficient purification and accurate confirmation of peptide synthesis and is suitable for handling complex preparative purification tasks.
