Methadone (MET) metabolism has been largely demonstrated with a high inter-individual variability and, therefore, quantification of MET is very important for therapeutic drug monitoring. A cation-selective exhaustive injection and sweeping MEKC (CSEI-Sweeping) was first developed to analyze MET and its two metabolites, 2-ethylidene-1,5-dimethyl-3,3-diphenylpyrrolidine (EDDP) and 2-ethyl-5-methyl-3,3-diphenyl-1-pyrroline (EMDP), in human serum. After pretreatment, the samples were electrokinetically injected into capillary (10kV, 500s) and swept by the separation phosphate buffer (100mM, pH 4.0) containing 20% tetrahydrofuran and 100mM SDS at -15kV. The LODs were 200pg/mL for MET and EMDP, and 400pg/mL for EDDP. Ten volunteers were administered MET (5.0 to 120.0mg/d) orally...

The retention behavior of an oligolysine mixture, consisting of two to eight residues, was examined at different concentrations of heptafluorobutyric acid (HFBA) in the mobile phase using a C18 column. A single ion record (SIR) mode of the mass spectrometer produced a distinct retention time for each oligomer component. As the concentration of HFBA increased, the retention time of each oligomer increased. Furthermore, the increase in retention time is chain-length dependent such that, the longer the oligomer chain, the more rapid was the rate that retention time increased. A closed pairing model that presumes an equilibrium between the unpaired state...

The present contribution reviews the foundations of the kinetic-plot method for the direct comparison of the kinetic performance of different chromatographic support and operating modes. The method directly uses experimental data collected for a specific sample and operating condition of one's interest, and is applicable both under isocratic- and gradient-elution conditions. Experimental proof is provided for the strong relation between the kinetic performance of a given support under isocratic and gradient conditions: a material offering superior kinetic performances under isocratic conditions will remain superior under gradient conditions and vice versa provided the comparison occurs under unbiased conditions. In addition, a...

3-chloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) and 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol (1,3-DCP) were determined for the first time in bakery foods using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) combined with in-situ derivatization and GC–MS analysis. This one-step protocol uses N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA) as silylation reagent. Initially, screening experimental design was applied to evaluate the effects of the variables potentially affecting the extraction process, namely extraction time (min) and temperature (°C), number of cycles, dispersant reagent (diatomaceous earth in powder form and as particulate matter with high pore volume Extrelut NT) and percent of flush ethyl acetate volume (%). To reduce the time of analysis and improve the sensitivity, derivatization of...
