Intelligent Recommendation Systems Powered by Consensus Neural Networks: The Ultimate Solution for Finding Suitable Chiral Chromatographic Systems? Anal Chem 2024; 96:12205-12212. [PMID: 38982948 PMCID: PMC11270524 DOI: 10.1021/acs.analchem.4c02656] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Revised: 07/03/2024] [Accepted: 07/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/11/2024]
Abstract
The selection of suitable combinations of chiral stationary phases (CSPs) and mobile phases (MPs) for the enantioresolution of chiral compounds is a complex issue that often requires considerable experimental effort and can lead to significant waste. Linking the structure of a chiral compound to a CSP/MP system suitable for its enantioseparation can be an effective solution to this problem. In this study, we evaluate algorithmic tools for this purpose. Our proposed consensus model, which uses multiple optimized artificial neural networks (ANNs), shows potential as an intelligent recommendation system (IRS) for ranking chromatographic systems suitable for the enantioresolution of chiral compounds with different molecular structures. To evaluate the IRS potential in a proof-of-concept stage, 56 structural descriptors for 56 structurally unrelated chiral compounds across 14 different families are considered. Chromatographic systems under study comprise 7 cellulose and amylose derivative CSPs and acetonitrile or methanol aqueous MPs (14 chromatographic systems in all). The ANNs are optimized using a fit-for-purpose version of the chaotic neural network algorithm with competitive learning (CCLNNA), a novel approach not previously applied in the chemical domain. CCLNNA is adapted to define the inner ANN complexity and perform feature selection of the structural descriptors. A customized target function evaluates the correctness of recommending the appropriate CSP/MP system. The ANN-consensus model exhibits no advisory failures and requires only an experimental attempt to verify the IRS recommendation for complete enantioresolution. This outstanding performance highlights its potential to effectively resolve this problem.

Abstract
The analysis of ceramide (Cer) and sphingomyelin (SM) lipid species using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) continues to present challenges as their precursor mass and fragmentation can correspond to multiple molecular arrangements. To address this constraint, we developed ReTimeML, a freeware that automates the expected retention times (RTs) for Cer and SM lipid profiles from complex chromatograms. ReTimeML works on the principle that LC-MS/MS experiments have pre-determined RTs from internal standards, calibrators or quality controls used throughout the analysis. Employed as reference RTs, ReTimeML subsequently extrapolates the RTs of unknowns using its machine-learned regression library of mass-to-charge (m/z) versus RT profiles, which does not require model retraining for adaptability on different LC-MS/MS pipelines. We validated ReTimeML RT estimations for various Cer and SM structures across different biologicals, tissues and LC-MS/MS setups, exhibiting a mean variance between 0.23 and 2.43% compared to user annotations. ReTimeML also aided the disambiguation of SM identities from isobar distributions in paired serum-cerebrospinal fluid from healthy volunteers, allowing us to identify a series of non-canonical SMs associated between the two biofluids comprised of a polyunsaturated structure that confers increased stability against catabolic clearance.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) gained tremendous growth and are rapidly becoming popular in various fields of prediction due to their potential abilities, accuracy, and speed. Machine learning algorithms employ historical data to analyze or predict information using patterns or trends. AI and ML were most employed in chromatographic predictions and particularly attractive options for liquid chromatography method development, as they can help achieve desired results faster, more accurately, and more efficiently. This review aims at exploring various AI and ML models employed in the determination of chromatographic characteristics. This review also aims to provide deep insight into reported artificial neural network (ANN) associated techniques which maintained better accuracy and significant possibilities for chromatographic characteristics prediction in liquid chromatography over classical linear models and also emphasizes the integration of a fuzzy system with an ANN, as this integrated study provides more efficient and accurate methods in chromatographic prediction than other linear models. This study also focuses on the retention prediction of a target molecule employing QSRR methodology combined with an ANN, highlighting a more effective technique than the QSRR alone. This approach showed the benefits of combining AI or ML algorithms with the QSRR to obtain more accurate retention predictions, emphasizing the potential of artificial intelligence and machine learning for overcoming adversities in analytical chemistry.

Abstract
A comparative quantitative structure–retention relationship (QSRR) study was carried out to predict the retention time of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) using molecular descriptors. The molecular descriptors were generated by the software Dragon and employed to build QSRR models. The effect of chromatographic parameters, such as flow rate, temperature, and gradient time, was also considered. An artificial neural network (ANN) and Partial Least Squares Regression (PLS-R) were used to investigate the correlation between the retention time, taken as the response, and the predictors. Six descriptors were selected by the genetic algorithm for the development of the ANN model: the molecular weight (MW); ring descriptor types nCIR and nR10; radial distribution functions RDF090u and RDF030m; and the 3D-MoRSE descriptor Mor07u. The most significant descriptors in the PLS-R model were MW, RDF110u, Mor20u, Mor26u, and Mor30u; edge adjacency indice SM09_AEA (dm); 3D matrix-based descriptor SpPosA_RG; and the GETAWAY descriptor H7u. The built models were used to predict the retention of three analytes not included in the calibration set. Taking into account the statistical parameter RMSE for the prediction set (0.433 and 0.077 for the PLS-R and ANN models, respectively), the study confirmed that QSRR models, associated with chromatographic parameters, are better described by nonlinear methods.

Abstract
The predicted liquid chromatographic retention times (RTs) of small molecules are not accurate enough for wide adoption in structural identification. In this study, we used the graph neural network to predict the retention time (GNN-RT) from structures of small molecules directly without the requirement of molecular descriptors. The predicted accuracy of GNN-RT was compared with random forests (RFs), Bayesian ridge regression, convolutional neural network (CNN), and a deep-learning regression model (DLM) on a METLIN small molecule retention time (SMRT) dataset. GNN-RT achieved the highest predicting accuracy with a mean relative error of 4.9% and a median relative error of 3.2%. Furthermore, the SMRT-trained GNN-RT model can be transferred to the same type of chromatographic systems easily. The predicted RT is valuable for structural identification in complementary to tandem mass spectra and can be used to assist in the identification of compounds. The results indicate that GNN-RT is a promising method to predict the RT for liquid chromatography and improve the accuracy of structural identification for small molecules.

Abstract
The separation of eleven antibiotics and ten metabolites were studied using high performance liquid chromatography. The C18-PFP octadecyl with integral PFP, C18-AR octadecyl with integral phenyl, C18-HL octadecyl and phenyl phase were used as stationary phases. Mixtures of acetontrile-0.1 % formic acid in water were investigated as mobile phases. The elution order of the target compounds was similar for all four HPLC columns applied. The best separation was obtained using the column with the pentafluorophenylpropyl chain. In addition, in order to optimize the parameters of retention elution for the column and to predict the conditions for the best separation of the active compounds studied biologically the ChromSword software was used. To obtain reliable information of the physicochemical properties and to estimate the relative biological activity of a group of the studied analytes, the QSRR approach was applied. Molecular descriptors were calculated using the HyperChem software. The study was based on multiple linear regression and the results were presented as quantitative structure-retention relationships equations. The QSRR models were determined using 16 molecular descriptors mainly related to the dipole moment (μ), the solvent accessible surface area (SAS), the van der Waals surface area (VWS), the minimum charge (δmin) as well as the polar surface area (PSA). Moreover, structural descriptors of the target compounds were used to describe their chromatographic retention behavior under the optimized HPLC conditions.

Abstract
Phenoxy acid herbicides are used worldwide and are potential contaminants of drinking water. Reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) is commonly used to monitor phenoxy acid herbicides in water samples. RP-HPLC retention of phenoxy acids is affected by both mobile phase composition and pH, but the synergic effect of these two factors, which is also dependent on the structure and pKa of solutes, cannot be easily predicted. In this paper, to support the setup of RP-HPLC analysis of phenoxy acids under application of linear mobile phase gradients we modelled the simultaneous effect of the molecular structure and the elution conditions (pH, initial acetonitrile content in the eluent and gradient slope) on the retention of the solutes. In particular, the chromatographic conditions and the molecular descriptors collected on the analyzed compounds were used to estimate the retention factor k by Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression. Eventually, a variable selection approach, Genetic Algorithms, was used to reduce the model complexity and allow an easier interpretation. The PLS model calibrated on the retention data of 15 solutes and successively tested on three external analytes provided satisfying and reliable results.

Abstract
Retention in gas–liquid chromatography is mainly governed by the extent of intermolecular interactions between the solute and the stationary phase. While molecular descriptors of computational origin are commonly used to encode the effect of the solute structure in quantitative structure–retention relationship (QSRR) approaches, characterisation of stationary phases is historically based on empirical scales, the McReynolds system of phase constants being one of the most popular. In this work, poly(siloxane) stationary phases, which occupy a dominant position in modern gas–liquid chromatography, were characterised by theoretical molecular descriptors. With this aim, the first five McReynolds constants of 29 columns were modelled by multilinear regression (MLR) coupled with genetic algorithm (GA) variable selection applied to the molecular descriptors provided by software Dragon. The generalisation ability of the established GA-MLR models, evaluated by both external prediction and repeated calibration/evaluation splitting, was better than that reported in analogous studies regarding nonpolymeric (molecular) stationary phases. Principal component analysis on the significant molecular descriptors allowed to classify the poly(siloxanes) according to their chemical composition and partitioning properties. Development of QSRR-based models combining molecular descriptors of both solutes and stationary phases, which will be applied to transfer retention data among different columns, is in progress.

Abstract
A multi-layer artificial neural network (ANN) was used to model the retention behavior of 16 o-phthalaldehyde derivatives of amino acids in reversed-phase liquid chromatography under application of various gradient elution modes. The retention data, taken from literature, were collected in acetonitrile⁻water eluents under application of linear organic modifier gradients ( gradients), pH gradients, or double pH/ gradients. At first, retention data collected in gradients and pH gradients were modeled separately, while these were successively combined in one dataset and fitted simultaneously. Specific ANN-based models were generated by combining the descriptors of the gradient profiles with 16 inputs representing the amino acids and providing the retention time of these solutes as the response. Categorical "bit-string" descriptors were adopted to identify the solutes, which allowed simultaneously modeling the retention times of all 16 target amino acids. The ANN-based models tested on external gradients provided mean errors for the predicted retention times of 1.1% ( gradients), 1.4% (pH gradients), 2.5% (combined and pH gradients), and 2.5% (double pH/ gradients). The accuracy of ANN prediction was better than that previously obtained by fitting of the same data with retention models based on the solution of the fundamental equation of gradient elution.

Abstract
Linear solvation energy relationships (LSERs) were applied to retention on hypercrosslinked polystyrene on silica (HC-Tol) to elucidate the type and relative importance of molecular interactions between model solutes and the HC-Tol stationary phase. Classical amino phase and another hypercrosslinked phase (5-HGN) were used as reference columns. On both the HC-Tol and amino, polar interactions predominate and contribute to retention. Solute volume V has no impact on retention on the amino column, while V has a slightly negative influence on retention for the HC-Tol column. The differences in coefficient v between the amino and the HC-Tol columns might explain why the HC-Tol is capable of group-type separations. 5-HGN phase has smaller a and b values compared to HC-Tol, which means that 5-HGN is not as basic or acidic in terms of hydrogen bonds as is HC-Tol. This suggests that the hydrogen bonding character of the HC-Tol phase arises from its silica substrate.
