Abstract
In recent decades, various bioanalytical technologies have been investigated for appropriate medical treatment and effective therapy. Temperature-responsive chromatography is a promising bioanalytical technology owing to its functional properties. Temperature-responsive chromatography uses a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAAm) modified stationary phase as the column packing material. The hydrophobic interactions between PNIPAAm and the analyte could be modulated by changing the column temperature because of the temperature-responsive hydrophobicity of PNIPAAm. Thus, the chromatography system does not require organic solvents in the mobile phase, making it suitable for therapeutic drug monitoring in medical settings such as hospitals. This review summarizes recent developments in temperature-responsive chromatography systems for therapeutic drug monitoring applications. In addition, separation methods for antibody drugs using PNIPAAm are also summarized because these methods apply to the therapeutic drug monitoring of biopharmaceutics. The temperature-responsive chromatography systems can also be utilized for clinical diagnosis, as they can assess multiple medicines simultaneously. This highlights the significant potential of temperature-responsive chromatography in medicine and healthcare.

Abstract
The existing methods for exosome isolation, such as ultracentrifugation, size exclusion, and affinity separation, suffer from some limitations. Herein, we aimed to develop temperature-modulated exosome-capturing materials using thermoresponsive polymers and peptides with affinity for exosomes. Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-propargyl acrylate)-b-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (P(HEMA-co-PgA)-b-PNIPAAm) was grafted on silica beads via a two-step process of activator regenerated by electron transfer atom transfer radical polymerization. Peptides with affinity for exosomes were conjugated to the propargyl group of the bottom P(HEMA-co-PgA) segment of the copolymer via a click reaction. The prepared copolymer-grafted beads were characterized by elemental analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, gel permeation chromatography, and the turbidity of the polymer solution. Results indicated that the copolymer and peptide were successfully modified on the silica beads. Exosomes from SK-BR-3 cells, a human breast cancer cell line, were selectively captured on the prepared beads at 37 °C, as the upper PNIPAAm segment shrank and the affinity between the peptide and exosome was enhanced. Upon lowering the temperature to 4 °C, the captured exosomes were released from the copolymer brush because of the extension of the PNIPAAm segment that reduced the affinity between peptides and exosomes. These findings demonstrated that the prepared copolymer brush-grafted silica beads can capture and release targeted exosomes via temperature modulation. Taken together, the developed copolymer brush-grafted silica beads would be useful for the separation of exosomes using simple procedures such as temperature modulation.

Abstract
Therapeutic drug monitoring, which is used to determine appropriate drug doses, is critical in pharmacological therapy. In this study, we developed thermoresponsive chromatography columns with various cationic properties for effective therapeutic drug monitoring. Thermoresponsive cationic copolymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-n-butyl methacrylate-co-N,N-dimethylaminopropyl acrylamide) (P(NIPAAm-co-BMA-co-DMAPAAm))-modified silica beads, which were used as the chromatographic stationary phase, were prepared by modifying the radical initiator of the silica beads, followed by radical polymerization. Characterization of the prepared silica beads demonstrated that thermoresponsive polymers with various cationic properties successfully modified the beads. The elution behavior of several steroids in the prepared bead-packed columns at various temperatures indicated that the optimal column operating temperature was 30 °C. Appropriate measurement conditions for 13 drugs were investigated by varying the cationic properties of the columns and the pH of the mobile phase. Drug concentrations in serum samples were determined using the developed columns and mobile phases with a suitable pH. Voriconazole concentrations in human serum samples were determined using the developed columns with all-aqueous mobile phases. We anticipate that the developed chromatography columns can be used for therapeutic drug monitoring because drug concentrations can be measured using all-aqueous mobile phases that are suitable in clinical settings.

Abstract
In this study, mixed-mode chromatography columns have been investigated using multiple analyte interactions. A mixed-mode chromatography column was developed using poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) brush-modified silica beads and poly(3-acrylamidopropyl trimethylammonium chloride) (PAPTAC) brush-modified silica beads. PNIPAAm brush-modified silica beads and PAPTAC brush-modified silica beads were prepared by atom transfer radical polymerization. The beads were then packed into a stainless-steel column in arbitrary compositions. The elution studies evaluated the column performance on hydrophobic, electrostatic, and therapeutic drug samples using steroids, adenosine nucleotide, and antiepileptic drugs as analytes, respectively. Steroids exhibited an increased retention time when the column temperature was increased. The retention of adenosine nucleotides increased with the increasing composition of the PAPTAC-modified beads in the column. The antiepileptic drugs were separated using the prepared mixed-mode columns. An effective separation of antiepileptic drugs was observed on a 10:1 PNIPAAm:PAPTAC column because the balance between the hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions with antiepileptic drugs was optimized for the bead composition. Oligonucleotides were also separated using mixed-mode columns through multiple hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. These results demonstrate that the developed mixed-mode column can modulate multiple hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions by changing the column temperature and composition of the packed PNIPAAm and PAPTAC beads.

Temperature responsive chromatography for therapeutic drug monitoring with an aqueous mobile phase. Sci Rep 2021; 11:23508.

Abstract
Therapeutic drug monitoring is a key technology for effective pharmacological treatment. In the present study, a temperature-responsive chromatography column was developed for safe and simple therapeutic drug monitoring without the use of organic solvents. Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogel-modified silica beads were prepared via a condensation reaction and radical polymerization. The temperature-dependent elution behavior of the drugs was observed using a PNIPAAm-modified silica-bead packed column and an all-aqueous mobile phase. Sharp peaks with reproducible retention times were observed at temperatures of 30 °C or 40 °C because the PNIPAAm hydrogel on the silica beads shrinks at these temperatures, limiting drug diffusion into the PNIPAAm hydrogel layer. The elution behavior of the sample from the prepared column was examined using a mixture of serum and model drugs. The serum and drugs were separated on the column at 30 °C or 40 °C, and the concentration of the eluted drug was obtained using the calibration curve. The results show that the prepared chromatography column would be useful for therapeutic drug monitoring because the drug concentration in serum can be measured without using organic solvents in the mobile phase and without any need for sample preparation.
