Download or read book Protein Liquid Chromatography written by M. Kastner and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2000 with total page 978 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protein Liquid Chromatography is a handbook-style guide to liquid chromatography as a tool for isolating and purifying proteins, consisting of 25 individual chapters divided into three parts: Part A covers commonly-used, classic modes of chromatography such as ion-exchange, size-exclusion, and reversed-phase; Part B deals with various target protein classes such as membrane proteins, recombinant proteins, and glycoproteins; and Part C looks at various miscellaneous related topics, including coupling reaction, buffer solution additives, and software. The text as a whole can be viewed as a systematic survey of available methods and how best to use them, but also attempts to provide an exhaustive coverage of each facet. How to solve a specific problem using a chosen method is the overall essence of the volume. The principle philosophy of this compilation is that practical application is everything; therefore, both classical and modern methods are presented in detail, with examples involving conventional, medium- and high-pressure techniques. Over-exposure to history, concept, and theory has deliberately been avoided. The reader will find a wealth of tips and tricks from users for users, including advice on the advantages and disadvantages of each method. Easy-to-read sections on "Getting started now" and "Where to go from here" attempt to provide hands-on, fool-proof detailed practical procedures with complete and even standard model runs for any scientist or technician at work in this area.

Download or read book Retention and Selectivity in Liquid Chromatography written by R.M. Smith and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1995-01-13 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together a number of studies which examine the ways in which the retention and selectivity of separations in high-performance liquid chromatography are dependent on the chemical structure of the analytes and the properties of the stationary and mobile phases. Although previous authors have described the optimisation of separations by alteration of the mobile phase, little emphasis has previously been reported of the influence of the structure and properties of the analyte. The initial chapters describe methods based on retention index group increments and log P increments for the prediction of the retention of analytes and the ways in which these factors are influenced by mobile phases and intramolecular interactions. The values of a wide range of group increments in different eluents are tabulated. Different scales of retention indices in liquid chromatography are described for the comparison of separations, the identification of analytes and the comparison of stationary phases. Applications of these methods in the pharmaceutical, toxicology, forensic, metabolism, environmental, food and other fields are reviewed. The effects of different mobile phases on the selectivity of the retention indices are reported. A compilation of sources of reported retention index values are given. Methods for the comparison of stationary phases based on the interactions of different analytes are covered, including lipophilic and polar indices, shape selectivity comparisons, their application to novel stationary phases, and chemometric methods for column comparisons.

Download or read book Selective Sample Handling and Detection in High Performance Liquid Chromatography written by K. Zech and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1989-10-30 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second of a two-volume project which treats the handling, separation and detection of complex samples as an integrated, interconnected process. On the basis of this philosophy the editors have selected those contributions which demonstrate that optimal sample preparation leads to a simplification of detection or reduced demands on the separation process. Throughout the book emphasis is on chemical principles with minimum discussion of the equipment required - an approach which reflects the editors' view that the limiting factor in the analysis of complex samples is an incomplete knowledge of the underlying chemistry rather than the hardware available. This lack of knowledge becomes more evident as the demands for lower detection limits grow, as solving complex matrix problems requires a greater understanding of the chemical interaction between the substance to be analysed and the stationary phase. Thus, apart from one chapter dealing with chemically modified silicas, the main theme of the book is developed in three chapters on sample preparation and three on detection. The opening chapter outlines concentration and chromatography on chemically modified silicas with complexing properties, and gives examples of the use of these phases with organic and inorganic compounds. Chapter II, the first of the three contributions dealing with sample preparation, addresses such questions as whether the prepared sample is representative of the material to be analysed; how to avoid contamination; which separation procedure should be used to avoid tedious sample preparation. Chapter III describes the processing of whole blood for drug analysis. The determination of cyclosporine and its metabolites (an especially difficult case) demonstrates how comprehensive the optimisation of sample preparation must be to successfully perform the analysis. Several other examples are also given. Chapter IV deals with radio-column liquid chromatography and introduces the other theme of the book, i.e. selective detection methods. The widespread use of radioisotopes requires a high degree of purification during the manufacture of the compounds, as well as highly accurate detection methods in biological and biochemical studies. Chapter V continues the theme of selective detection with an overview of post-column reaction detection. The use of immobilised enzymes in post-column reactors or `pumpless' reactor systems for on-line reagent generation after the chromatographic separation step is discussed in detail. Various examples of the separation of biological compounds show how the production of electrochemical reagents and photochemical reaction detection have increased the selectivity of the detection, leading to more economical analytical systems. Selective detection employing luminescence detection techniques is outlined in Chapter VI. The use of immobilised fluorophores or the coupling to photochemical reactions leads to highly selective detection systems which can greatly simplify the sample handling. The final chapter reviews the use of continuous separation techniques in flow injection analysis thus revealing the need for a strong interdisciplinary dependence between sample handling and separation in this area. Written by experienced practitioners, this book will be extremely useful to investigators in many areas of application. Each chapter includes sufficient references to the literature to serve as a valuable starting point for more detailed investigation. The strong emphasis on sample handling makes the book unique in many ways and it will be welcomed by environmental scientists as well as those active in the clinical, pharmaceutical and bioanalytical fields.

Download or read book Stationary Phases in Gas Chromatography written by H. Rotzsche and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1991-08-21 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary aim of this volume is to make the chemist familiar with the numerous stationary phases and column types, with their advantages and disadvantages, to help in the selection of the most suitable phase for the type of analytes under study. The book also provides detailed information on the chemical structure, physico-chemical behaviour, experimental applicability, physical data of liquid and solid stationary phases and solid supports. Such data were previously scattered throughout the literature. To understand the processes occurring in the separation column and to offer a manual both to the beginner and to the experienced chromatographer, one chapter is devoted to the basic theoretical aspects. Further, as the effectiveness of the stationary phase can only be considered in relation to the column type, a chapter on different column types and the arrangement of the stationary phase within the column is included. The secondary aim of this book is to stimulate the development of new and improved standardized stationary phases and columns, in order to improve the reproducibility of separations, as well as the range of applications.

Download or read book Quantitative Gas Chromatography for Laboratory Analyses and On Line Process Control written by G. Guiochon and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1988-06-01 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an invaluable new book on quantitative gas chromatography which explains how the method can - or should - be used for accurate and precise analysis. Gas chromatography is firmly established as one of the few major methods for the quantitative analysis of complex mixtures. It is fast, accurate and inexpensive, with a broad range of applications. It has however become very complex and involved: over 200 stationary phases, more than 10 detector principles and several very different column types are available from among the catalogs of over 100 manufacturers and major retailers. The progressive changes in the nature of gas chromatography have created new needs for information which are not satisfied by the literature presently available. This book provides a complete discussion of all the problems involved in the achievement of quantitative analysis by gas chromatography, whether in the research laboratory, in the routine analysis laboratory or in process control. For this reason the presentation of theoretical concepts has been limited to the essential, while extensive explanations have been devoted to the various steps involved in the derivation of precise and accurate data. This starts with the selection of the instrumentation and column, continues with the choice of optimum experimental conditions, then calibration and ends with the use of correct procedures for data acquisition and calculations. Finally, there is almost always a way to reduce errors and an entire chapter deals with this single issue. Numerous relevant examples are presented. The first part of the book presents the theoretical background, simple enough to be understood by all analytical chemists, but still complete and up-to-date. It discusses the problems of flow dynamics, retention and band broadening. The changes in band profile associated with column overloading are explained without much recourse to mathematics. The second part describes the gas chromatograph and discusses the properties of each of its parts: gas flow and pressure controller sampling system, oven, column switching valves, detectors. The different implementations, their advantages and drawbacks are discussed and compared. In addition, three chapters present packed column technology, open tubular column technology and some sophisticated new phase systems, respectively. The new phase systems described use adsorbents, modified by coating or grafting organic phase, and carrier gases containing vapors which are sorbed by the stationary phase and modify it, such as steam. The third part discusses the applications in qualitative and quantitative analysis. Calibration, peak integration, sources of errors arising from the various parts of the instrument as well as from the measurement process itself are carefully described in four detailed chapters. Methods to carry out accurate and precise analysis are presented. A last chapter is devoted to process control analysis and gives a number of detailed examples of applications. A lexicon explaining the most important chromatographic terms and a detailed index complete the book. This is a book which no chemical analyst should be without. It should be on the library shelf of all universities, instrument companies and any laboratory and plant where gas chromatography is used.
