Abstract
Droplet electrophoresis (EP) is of interest in biological systems, microfluidics, and separation techniques. We investigate EP of an oil droplet that contains free ions and is stabilized in an electrolyte solution through an amphoteric surfactant. The presence of mobile ions within the droplet leads to the creation of a distinct nonzero space charge density inside the droplet and consequently, formation of an inner EDL inside the droplet in addition to the traditionally considered outside EDL. While we assume the permittivity inside the inner EDL to remain constant, we consider both the case of constant and variable permittivity in the outer EDL. Our findings demonstrate a change in the droplet direction of motion in the electric field when transitioning from acidic to alkaline pH, regardless of permittivity and ionic strength in both oil and electrolyte. We further find a significant reduction in the magnitude of droplet velocity in the case of a variable permittivity due to reduction of the local space charge density within the EDL surrounding the droplet. When decreasing the viscosity ratio of the oil to the electrolyte, in all cases we find a reduction in droplet velocity. This decline is attributed mostly to the formation and strength of a vortex around the droplet. We finally demonstrate that with constant permittivity in the outer EDL, the variation in κaouter has a more significant effect on the droplet's EP velocity than altering κainner. However, in cases where the body forces inside of the droplet dominate, minor changes in the outer electrolyte concentration have no influence on the droplet motion, which is relevant for biological colloids that can contain significant free internal charges. Our results are important for the manipulation of biological colloids, water and waste treatment such as lubricant removal from processing streams.

Abstract
Dynamic electrophoresis is the foundation for electroacoustical measurements, in which the electroacoustical signals may be used to analyze the size and electrostatic charge of colloidal entities by means of the results for dynamic electrophoretic mobility. Thus, the electrophoresis under an alternating electric field is the key foundation for electroacoustic theory. In this article, we develop a tractable analytical theory for the dynamic electrophoresis of hydrophobic and dielectric fluid droplets possessing uniform surface charge density. The tiny fluid droplets possess charged mobile surfaces and have found widespread applications in our day-to-day life. For dielectric fluid droplets (e.g., oil-water emulsions), the tangential electric stress at the interface is nonzero, which significantly affects its electrohydrodynamics under an oscillatory electric field, which has, however, a negligible impact on the electrophoretic motion of conducting droplets (e.g., mercury droplets). Besides, the micro/nanoscale fluid droplets often show hydrophobicity when they are immersed in an aqueous medium, and the impact of the electric field on hydrophobic surfaces remains a research frontier in the chemical discipline. Whereas a number of approximate expressions for electrophoretic mobility have been derived for the conducting droplet, none of them are applicable to such generic hydrophobic fluid droplets with dielectric permittivity that is significantly lower than or comparable to that of an aqueous medium. In this work, within the Debye-Hückel electrostatic framework, we elaborate an original analytical expression of dynamic electrophoretic mobility for this generic dielectric fluid droplet with a hydrophobic surface considering that the droplet retains its spherical shape during its oscillatory motion. We further derived a set of simplified expressions for dynamic electrophoretic mobility deduced under several limiting cases. The results are further illustrated, indicating the impact of pertinent parameters.

Abstract
The present article deals with the theoretical study on electrophoresis of hydrophobic and dielectric spherical fluid droplets possessing uniform surface charge density. Unlike the ideally polarizable liquid droplet bearing constant surface ζ-potential, the tangential component of the Maxwell stress is nonzero for dielectric fluid droplets with uniform surface charge density. We consider the continuity of the tangential component of total stress (sum of the hydrodynamic and Maxwell stresses) and jump in dielectric displacement along the droplet-to-electrolyte interface. The typical situation is considered here for which the interfacial tension of the fluid droplet is sufficiently high so that the droplet retains its spherical shape during its motion. The present theory can be applied to nanoemulsions, hydrophobic oil droplets, gas bubbles, droplets of immiscible liquid suspended in aqueous medium, etc. Based on weak field and low charge assumptions and neglecting the Marangoni effect, the resultant electrokinetic equations are solved using linear perturbation analysis to derive the closed form expression for electrophoretic mobility applicable for the entire range of Debye-Hückel parameter. We further deduced an alternate approximate expression for electrophoretic mobility without involving exponential integrals. Besides, we have derived analytical results for mobility pertaining to various limiting cases. The results are further illustrated to show the impact of pertinent parameters on the overall electrophoretic mobility.

Abstract
Electrophoresis (EP) of droplets is an intriguing phenomenon that has applications in biological systems, separation strategies, and reactor engineering. Droplet EP is significantly different from the classic particle EP because of droplet characteristics such as a mobile surface charge and the nonrigidity of the interface. Also, the liquid-liquid system, where there is an interplay between the hydrodynamic and electrokinetic forces in both phases, adds to the complexity of electrophoretic motion. Due to the vast amount of potential applications of droplet EP, a mechanistic understanding of the droplet motion in the presence of an external electric field is crucial. This review provides a background on the mechanism of droplet EP and summarizes the intrinsic interplay between the different relevant forces in these systems. The review also describes the key differences between droplet EP and particle EP, and the impact of these differences on droplet mobility. Additionally, we schematically summarize the effects of key parameters on droplet EP mobility, such as electric double layer polarization, the development of internal flow inside a droplet and boundary effects.

Abstract
Many recent studies have shown high detection frequencies of quinolone antibiotics in poultry, as well as an increasing incidence of antimicrobial resistance. The main purpose of this project was to develop a fast and reliable analytical method for the detection of quinolones in poultry meat. In order to develop a rapid quantitative confirmation method, ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer was used. First, the sample preparation procedure was simplified by reducing the procedure to extraction and freezing out steps. Second, the chromatographic separation step was excluded and mass spectrometric parameters were optimised. Third, the method was validated by fortifying a blank matrix at four levels (0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2 times the maximum residue limit (MRL) or level of interest in those cases when no MRL was established). As a result, the overall analysis time was reduced to less than an hour. The validation study revealed that the method is capable of detection and confirmation of ten quinolone compounds in poultry above the detection capability (CCβ) of the procedure. Finally, the developed method was applied to 19 commercially available chicken meat samples. None of the samples contained quinolones above the limit of quantification (LOQ) of the method. Analysis of treated chickens revealed that the developed method is suitable for the determination of ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin. The developed method could be one of the fastest quantitative confirmatory methods for the analysis of quinolones available so far.

Abstract
Agrochemical applications may have unintended detrimental effects on soil microorganisms and soil health. However, limited studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of repeated fungicide applications and interactive effects of different agrochemical applications on soil microorganisms. In this study, an incubation experiment was established to evaluate the potential influences of the fungicide iprodione and the nitrification inhibitor 3, 4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) on soil enzyme activities and bacterial properties. Weekly iprodione applications decreased the activities of all enzymes tested, and DMPP application inhibited soil urease activity. Compared with the blank control, bacterial 16S rRNA gene abundance decreased following repeated iprodione applications, but increased after DMPP application. After 28days of incubation, the treatment receiving both iprodione and DMPP application had higher bacterial 16S rRNA gene abundance and Shannon diversity index than the treatment with iprodione applications alone. Repeated iprodione applications significantly increased the relative abundance of Proteobacteria, but decreased the relative abundances of Chloroflexi and Acidobacteria. Simultaneously, bacterial community structure was changed by repeated iprodione applications, alone or together with DMPP. These results showed that repeated iprodione applications exerted negative effects on soil enzyme activities, bacterial biomass and community diversity. Moreover, relative to iprodione applications alone, additional DMPP application could alleviate the toxic effects of iprodione applications on bacterial biomass and community diversity.

Abstract
The purpose of this study, the direct separation of aminoalkanol derivatives I and II of 1,7-dimethyl-8,9-diphenyl-4-azatricyclo[5.2.1.0(2,6) ]dec-8-ene-3,5,10-trione, which was found in earlier studies as potential anticancer drugs, were performed. Capillary electrophoresis offers the possibility of fast, cheap, and reproducible separations for compounds I and II. In this paper, the simultaneous separation of I and II by capillary zone electrophoresis has been achieved within 8 min by use of 50 mM phosphate buffer of pH 2.5. Analysis of the two compounds in the serum plasma standards was conducted. Limits of detection of I and II by UV absorbance at 200 nm were achieved in the range of 156.3-156.6 ng/mL. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy, precision, limits of detection, and quantification. The calibration equation revealed a good linear relationship (r(2) = 0.998-0.999). Sufficient recovery was observed in the range of 96.3-99.5%. The method showed good reproducibility with intra- and interday precision of 0.97 and 1.76%, respectively. The quantification limits for the compounds were in the range of 477.0-479.8 ng/mL. The proposed method was applied to the analysis of real serum samples.

Abstract
Continuous exposure to low doses of myco- and phyco-toxins poses severe risks to human health. Contemporary analytical methods have the sensitivity required for contamination detection and quantification, but direct application of these methods on real samples can be rarely performed because of matrix complexity. Thus, selective analytical methods, relying on intelligent functional materials are needed. Recent years have seen the increasing use of molecular imprinted polymers in contaminant analysis because these materials seem to be particularly suitable for applications where analyte selectivity is essential. In this review, several applications of molecular imprinted polymers in myco- and phyco-toxin contamination analysis will be discussed.

Abstract
CE is a family of electrokinetic separation techniques that separate compounds based upon differences in electrophoretic mobilities, phase partitioning, pI, molecular size, or a combination of one or several of these properties. CE has been used in several modes to analyze and characterize a wide variety of analytes from simple inorganic ions, small organic molecules, peptides, proteins, nucleic acids to virus, microbes and particles. Food consists of a complex mixture of a variety of components, many of which are biologically active. Components classified as "nutrients" are essential for growth, maintenance, and repair of the body. Other food constituents, typically occurring in small quantities, are classified as "biologically active substances" and they have beneficial or harmful effects on human health. There are two types of biologically active substances in food - naturally occurring and food additives. The bioactive compounds of food that will be mentioned in this review are inorganic and organic acids, amino acids, vitamins, phenolic compounds, biogenic amines, antinutrients, toxins, etc. This review is focused on the application of CE with hydrodynamically closed system (suppression of EOF) for the analysis of the above-mentioned compounds. CE can be an alternative method to HPLC or other methods for analysis of bioactive compounds in food. The main advantages of CE are low running cost (at least ten times than HPLC) and consideration to environment (hundreds of microliters of diluted water based electrolyte per analysis).

Pressurized liquid extraction combined with capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry as an improved methodology for the determination of sulfonamide residues in meat. J Chromatogr A 2007; 1159:233-41. [PMID: 17433345 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2007.03.062] [Citation(s) in RCA: 103] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2007] [Revised: 03/07/2007] [Accepted: 03/19/2007] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
A new analytical method, based on capillary electrophoresis and tandem mass spectrometry (CE-MS2), is proposed and validated for the identification and simultaneous quantification of 12 sulfonamides (SAs) in pork meat. The studied SAs include sulfathiazole, sulfadiazine, sulfamethoxypyridazine, sulfaguanidine, sulfanilamide, sulfadimethoxyne, sulfapyridine, sulfachloropyridazine, sulfisoxazole, sulfasalazine, sulfabenzamide and sulfadimidine. Different parameters (i.e. separation buffer, sheath liquid, electrospray conditions) were optimized to obtain an adequate CE separation and high MS sensitivity. MS2 experiments using an ion trap as analyzer, operating in the selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mode, were carried out to achieve the required number of identification points according to the 2002/657/EC European Decision. For the quantification in pork tissue samples, a pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) procedure, using hot water as extractant followed by an Oasis HLB cleanup, was developed. Linearity (r between 0.996 and 0.997), precision (RSD<14 %) and recoveries (from 76 to 98%) were satisfactory. The limits of detection and quantification (below 12.5 and 46.5 microg kg(-1), respectively) were in all cases lower than the maximum residue limits (MRLs), indicating the potential of CE-MS2 for the analysis of SAs, in the food quality and safety control areas.

Abstract
Food contamination from natural or anthropogenic sources poses severe risks to human health. It is now largely accepted that continuous exposure to low doses of toxic chemicals can be related to several chronic diseases, including some type of cancer and serious hormonal dysfunctions. Contemporary analytical methods have the sensitivity required for contamination detection and quantification, but direct application of these methods on food samples can be rarely performed. In fact, the matrix introduces severe disturbances, and analysis can be performed only after some clean-up and preconcentration steps. Current sample pre-treatment methods, mostly based on the solid phase extraction technique, are very fast and inexpensive but show a lack of selectivity, while methods based on immunoaffinity extraction are very selective but expensive and not suitable for harsh environments. Thus, inexpensive, rapid and selective clean-up methods, relaying on "intelligent" materials are needed. Recent years have seen a significant increase of the "molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction" (MISPE) technique in the food contaminant analysis. In fact, this technique seems to be particularly suitable for extractive applications where analyte selectivity in the presence of very complex and structured matrices represents the main problem. In this review, several applications of MISPE in food contamination analysis will be discussed, with particular emphasis on the extraction of pesticides, drugs residua, mycotoxins and environmental contaminants.

Abstract
Poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) monoliths have been synthetized in fused-silica capillary. The monomer mixture composition, initiation mode and porogen composition were optimized in order to provide a monolith with an homogeneous morphology and able to generate an electroosmotic flow via the incorporation of a small percentage of monomers possessing sulfonate group. Anti-ochratoxin A antibodies were immobilized through a single step on the epoxy groups leading to a miniaturized immunoextraction column. In order to evaluate the specificity of the analyte-antigen interaction on this immunosorbent, the retention of ochratoxin A was examined on this support but also on two complementary sorbents: one constituted by the non-bonded monolith and another one bonded with non-specific antibodies. Only the monolith bonded with anti-ochratoxin A antibodies lead to retention, showing the specificity of the interactions involved. This affinity phase based on a monolithic polymer support exhibits a high potential for specific preconcentration of small molecules.

Abstract
Solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedures for pesticide residues in food and environment are reviewed and discussed. The use of these procedures, which include several approaches such as: matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD), solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) and stir-bar sorptive extraction (SBSE), represents an opportunity to reduce analysis time, solvent consumption, and overall cost. SPE techniques differ from solvent extraction depending on the interactions between a sorbent and the pesticide. This interaction may be specific for a particular pesticide, as in the interaction with an immunosorbent, or non-specific, as in the way a number of different pesticides are adsorbed on apolar or polar materials. A variety of applications were classified according to the method applied: conventional SPE, SPME, hollow-fiber micro-extraction (HFME), MSPD and SBSE. Emphasis is placed on the multiresidue analysis of liquid and solid samples.

Abstract
Nowadays, a wide range of pesticides are used in agricultural production, and their monitoring in samples of environmental and alimentary interest is of extreme importance to ensure, among others, the safety of consumption of foods. The aim of this work is to provide updated information about the major developments in CE and HPLC in pesticide analysis, covering relevant publications between 2004 and early 2006. The use of different sample pretreatment steps to provide a suitable extraction of these compounds from the different matrices as well as to increase the sensitivity of the determination is also discussed.

Abstract
The performance of two capillary electrophoresis (CE) instruments, one commercial and one homemade device, were compared for the determination of derivatised aminated compounds with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). The commercial CE system first uses an argon ion laser as excitation source; the homemade CE device uses an inexpensive blue-light-emitting diode (LED) as the light source and a charge-coupled device (CCD) as the detection system. After fine optimisation of several separation parameters in both devices, a co-electroosmotic flow CE methodology was achieved in coated capillary tubing with 0.001% hexadimetrine bromide (HDB), and 50 mmol L-1 sodium borate at pH 9.3 with 20% 2-propanol for the determination of several amines and aminoacids. Analytical performances, applicability in beer samples and other aspects such as cost or potential for miniaturization have been compared for both devices.

Abstract
Two in-line preconcentration capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) methods (field amplified sample injection (FASI) and stacking with sample matrix removal (LVSS)) have been evaluated for the analysis of acrylamide (AA) in foodstuffs. To allow the determination of AA by CZE, it was derivatized using 2-mercaptobenzoic acid. For FASI, the optimum conditions were water at pH > or = 10 adjusted with NH3 as sample solvent, 35 s hydrodynamic injection (0.5 psi) of a water plug, 35 s of electrokinetic injection (-10 kV) of the sample, and 6s hydrodynamic injection (0.5 psi) of another water plug to prevent AA removal by EOF. In stacking with sample matrix removal, the reversal time was found to be around 3.3 min. A 40 mM phosphate buffer (pH 8.5) was used as carrier electrolyte for CZE separation in both cases. For both FASI and LVSS methods, linear calibration curves over the range studied (10-1000 microg L(-1) and 25-1000 microg L(-1), respectively), limit of detection (LOD) on standards (1 microg L(-1) for FASI and 7 microg L(-1) for LVSS), limit of detection on samples (3 ng g(-1) for FASI and 20 ng g(-1) for LVSS) and both run-to-run (up to 14% for concentration and 0.8% for time values) and day-to-day precisions (up to 16% and 5% for concentration and time values, respectively) were established. Due to the lower detection limits obtained with the FASI-CZE this method was applied to the analysis of AA in different foodstuffs such as biscuits, cereals, crisp bread, snacks and coffee, and the results were compared with those obtained by LC-MS/MS.

Abstract
A specific pressure-assisted CE-MS method is described for the analysis of five quinolone residues. MS using a single quadrupole is compared with multiple-stage MS using a quadrupole IT (QIT-MS(n)). The procedure involves a common sample preparation by SPE on disposable cartridges. The most suitable electrolyte is 60 mM (NH(4))(2)CO(3) at pH 9.2. Single quadrupole does not provide enough fragmentation to confirm identities according to the current legislation. However, QIT-MS(n) achieves selective fragmentation. Using this method, danofloxacin, enrofloxacin, flumequine, ofloxacin, and pipemidic acid are analyzed in fortified samples of chicken and fish. Recoveries at levels of 50 ng/g were 62-99%, except for flumequine, which gives recoveries > or =45%. RSDs are from 9 to 16% and the LOD is equal (20 ng/g) for the five analytes. Confirmation of the quinolones' identity is achieved using QIT-MS(3). Forty samples of chicken and fish taken from different local markets are analyzed. Enrofloxacin is also determined in incurred chicken muscle using this method.

Abstract
In a daily migration, the aquatic larvae of Chaoborus flavicans (a phantom midge) alternate oxygen-saturated and anoxic lake strata. To investigate this cycle, larvae were collected at a natural environment, and acetate, propionate, pyruvate, lactate, glycerol, phosphate, maleate, succinate, glucose and citrate were determined. Each larva was homogenized with 200 microL water and deproteinized with a spin-filter; 50 microL aliquots were mixed with 50 microL of a buffer containing 80 mM propylamine, 20 mM HCl and 0.06 mM 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (internal standard) in methanol. The extracts were infused in an electrospray ionization ion-trap mass spectrometer. The limits of detection for the [M-H](-) peaks ranged from 2 microM for pyruvate and lactate to 200 microM for acetate and glycerol. The MS(2) ion-trap spectra obtained at pH 7 (ammonium acetate buffer) were used to distinguish maleate (cis-2-butenedioic), which gave [M-CO(2)-H](-) (m/z 71), from fumarate (trans-2-butenedioic), which showed first a loss of water yielding an instable peak at m/z 97. The compounds involved in the aerobic-anaerobic adjustment of the metabolism were revealed by linear discriminant analysis. Acetate, citrate, glucose, maleate (which decreased during the daytime), and particularly succinate (which increased), showed the maximal discrimination power between the day- and night-time samples.
