Preparation and evaluation of a pyridine sulfonate betaine-based zwitterionic stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction chromatography. J Chromatogr A 2024; 1736:465333. [PMID: 39260151 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.465333] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2024] [Revised: 08/28/2024] [Accepted: 09/02/2024] [Indexed: 09/13/2024]
Abstract
A zwitterionic stationary phase comprising pyridinium cations and sulfonate anions was successfully developed through thiol-ene click chemistry. Using seven polar small molecules as probes, the zwitterionic stationary phase showed high separation selectivity and excellent column efficiency (35,200-54,800 plates/m) compared with two commercial columns. The influence of water proportion, salt concentration, and pH in the mobile phase, and column temperature, on the retention of six polar compounds was examined. The retention mechanism was explored by three hydrophilic retention models, Tanaka test and linear solvation energy relationship analysis. For the analysis of sample dairy products (milk powder, milk, and yogurt), the stationary phase was operated in hydrophilic interaction chromatography mode without the addition of buffer salts, facilitating rapid and efficient detection and quantification of melamine. The LOD and LOQ are 0.04 mg⋅g-1 and 0.13 mg⋅g-1, respectively, and the recovery rate is 90.3 - 102.8 %. The zwitterionic stationary phase has the advantages of simple preparation, good method reproducibility, good selectivity and high precision.

Abstract
In response to the challenges associated with the chromatographic separation of polar compounds, this study aims to devise a solution by introducing a novel stationary phase. Hydrogels, characterized by a three-dimensional network structure, have aroused wide attention owing to its functional designability, multiple interaction sites and good adhesion, etc. In this work, an adhesive hydrogel functionalized silica stationary phase (Sil@PVA/TA) was synthesized using physical coating technique. Due to the co-existence of hydroxyl and benzene ring in the hydrogel structure, the obtained composites materials exhibited excellent separation performance for various of compounds and excellent column efficiency up to 71385.6 plates/m for thymidine. Furthermore, the hydrogel functionalized silica demonstrated superior selectivity to bare silica, diol-column and NH2-column for the separation of various of polar molecules, including, nucleosides/bases, alkaloids, organic acids, antibiotics and amino acids.

Abstract
Hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) offers different selectivity than reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC). However, our knowledge of the driving force for selectivity is limited and there is a need for a better understanding of the selectivity in HILIC. Quantitative assessment of retention mechanisms makes it possible to investigate selectivity based on understanding the underlying retention mechanisms. In this study, selected model compounds from the Ikegami selectivity tests were evaluated on different polar stationary phases. The study results revealed significant insights into the selectivity in HILIC. First, hydroxy and methylene selectivity is driven by hydrophilic partitioning; but surface adsorption for 2-deoxyuridine or 5-methyluridine reduces the selectivity factor. Furthermore, the retention of 2-deoxyuridine or 5-methyluridine by surface adsorption in combination with the phase ratio explain the difference in hydroxy or methylene selectivity observed among different stationary phases. Investigations on xanthine positional isomers (1-methylxanthine/3-methylxanthine, theophylline/theobromine) indicate that isomeric selectivity is controlled by surface adsorption; however, hydrophilic partitioning may contribute to resolution by enhancing overall retention. In addition, two pairs of nucleoside isomers (adenosine/vidarabine, 2'-deoxy and 3'-deoxyguanosine) provide an example that isomeric selectivity can also be controlled by hydrophilic partitioning if their partitioning coefficients are significantly different in HILIC. Although more data is needed, the current study provides a mechanistic based understanding of the selectivity in HILIC and potentially a new way to design selectivity tests.

Abstract
In this work, a chromatographic method for the separation of carbohydrates was proposed. Tris-(hydroxymethyl)-amine (TRIS) functionalized silica-based hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) stationary was synthesized. The dynamically absorbed borate layer is generated by using borate buffer as a polar modifier due to the complexation of borate with TRIS ligand in the stationary phase. The chromatographic systems were analyzed by the linear solvation energy relationship model. The calculated system constants revealed the enhancement of anionic exchange by the addition of borate in the mobile phase system. In addition, ligand exchange is critical for the retention and elution order of sugars and sugar alcohols. Carbohydrates displayed prolonged retention with different selectivity profiles relating to their complexation coefficients with borate. Experiment results showed that the effect of borate in this chromatographic system was stable within the range of pH 3-7 and borate concentration of 5-15 mM. This work provides a complementary solution for the separation of carbohydrates. It can also be extended to the separation of glycosides.

Abstract
To realize the potential of ionic liquid functionalized silica to prepare mixed-mode and chiral stationary phases, two ionic liquid silane reagents with different anions were synthesized via a high-efficiency click reaction. Then they were decorated onto the surface of silica by a one-step bonding reaction. The functionalized silica was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and elemental analysis (EA). Two stationary phases provided satisfactory performance when compared with a commercial mixed-mode column. Notably, Sil-C10Im-D-BCS with D-3-bromocamphor-8-sulfonate (D-BCS) as anion presented chiral separation capacity towards 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-1-naphthol. The separation mechanism was investigated through multiple pathways, and the results revealed that the prepared stationary phases can retain and separate solutes through multiple interactions, like hydrophobic effect, ion exchange, hydrogen-bond interaction, etc. Quantum chemical calculation (QC) was employed to obtain the optimized structures and the binding energy of anions to cations. The results provided some insights into the retention mechanism from a molecular perspective. This work demonstrated the superiority of ionic liquid functionalized silica as mixed-mode stationary phases and the potential of chiral ionic liquid as chiral selectors.

Abstract
Zwitterions are a promising choice to prepare separation materials because of their hydrophilicity and biocompatibility. We described the preparation of two zwitterionic polymer functionalized stationary phases and evaluation under mixed-mode chromatography. A zwitterionic monomer, S-(4-vinylbenzyl) cysteine (SVC), was synthesized and bonded to silica via reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization to afford a zwitterionic stationary phase, Sil-SVC. A hydrophobic monomer, N-(4-phenylbutan-2-yl) acrylamide (NPA), was copolymerized with SVC onto the stationary phase (Sil-SVCNPA) for comparison. The stationary phases were characterized with FT-IR, TGA, EA, and zeta-potential measurements. Mobile phase composition (ACN content, pH and salt concentration) was varied to study the retention property. Linear solvation energy relationship and Van't Hoff plot were used to investigate the retention mechanism and how chromatographic conditions influenced it. Both stationary phases showed a mixed-mode of RPLC/HILIC/IEC and satisfactory performance in separating hydrophobic analytes (alkylbenzenes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons), hydrophilic nucleotide and bases, and anions, high column efficiency of 60,000 plates·m-1 was achieved. In summary, zwitterionic polymers are attractive options to prepare stationary phases and the retention property can be easily regulated by copolymer.

Abstract
Rapid and effective separation of nucleotides (NTs) and their derivatives is crucial for studying their physiological functions. In this work, we comprehensively evaluated the separation ability of a zwitterionic hydrophilic monolith, i.e., poly(N,N-dimethyl-N-(3-methacrylamidopropyl)-N-(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium betaine-co-N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide) (poly(SPP-co-MBA)) for NTs analysis, including its selectivity, chemical stability under extremely basic condition and compatibility with hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) coupled with mass spectrometry (HILIC-MS). The poly(SPP-co-MBA) monolith exhibited excellent chemical stability, as evidenced by the low relative standard deviation of retention time (0.16-1.05%) after 4000 consecutive injections over one month under strong alkaline elution condition (pH 10). After optimizing the separation conditions, including buffer pH and concentration, organic solvent content and column temperature, four nucleoside triphosphates, five nucleoside diphosphates and five nucleoside monophosphates were baseline separated within 7 min. Additionally, the mixtures containing one nucleoside and its corresponding mono-, di-, and triphosphates were baseline separated within only 3 min, respectively. It is good HILIC-MS compatibility was also confirmed by the satisfactory peak shape and high response of nine NTs. Overall, the proposed poly(SPP-co-MBA) monolith exhibited good mechanical stability and compatibility of HILIC-MS, making it a promising technique for NTs analysis.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have turned out to be one of the best choices to fabricate mixed-mode stationary phases, this work aimed to investigate the possibility and merit of copolymerizing cations and anions as modifications. We prepared two ILs stationary phases, one of which was constructed by copolymerizing cation and anion (p-vinylbenzene sulfonate). Two stationary phases were characterized and comprehensively evaluated. The stationary phases showed great repeatability (RSD <0.87%) and high efficiency (up to 83,810 plate/m). Both stationary phases can operate under a mixed mode of reversed phase/hydrophilic interaction/ion exchange chromatography (RPLC/HILIC/IEC). Chromatographic evaluation results revealed that copolymerized anions endow stationary phase superior selectivity under RPLC and HILIC modes, so hydrophobic terphenyls isomer (under ACN/H2O = 35/65) and hydrophilic nucleotides and bases (under ACN/100 mM NH4FA buffer = 90/10) are better separated. Organic and inorganic anions showed entirely different retention behaviors on two stationary phases, and the mechanism was investigated by linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) and thermodynamic analysis. This work proved that copolymerizing cations and anions of ILs could be a promising method to prepare stationary phases, the retention property and mechanism need further research.

Abstract
In this study, chitosan (CS) and polyacrylic acid (PAA) were used to construct a double-crosslinked network hydrogel, which was employed as the functional material for silica microspheres to prepare a CS/PAA hydrogel modified liquid chromatographic stationary phase. During preparation, octadecene (ODE) was introduced into the CS/PAA hydrogel to improve its hydrophobicity and separation ability. The electrostatic interaction between the amino group of CS and the carboxyl group of PAA effectively prevented the swelling of the CS/PAA hydrogel, which ensured the successful application of the obtained CS/PAA hydrogel@SiO2 in chromatographic analysis. Polar nucleosides/bases and B-vitamins were selectively separated using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography. Hydrophobic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and alkylphenols were effectively separated through reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Moreover, the effective separation of aromatic positional isomers and chiral enantiomers was achieved. This study confirms the potential application of the CS/PAA hydrogel in chromatographic separation. What is noteworthy is that the method developed in this study also provides a feasible strategy to solve the swelling issue associated with the hydrogel-based liquid chromatographic stationary phase.

Abstract
Three structurally similar silane reagents with different terminal groups were prepared and bonded to silica to obtain three structurally similar stationary phases (Sil-Ph-COOH, Sil-Phe and Sil-Ph-NH2). The prepared stationary phases were characterized through elemental analysis (EA) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). These three stationary phases provided acceptable retention repeatability (relative standard deviations between 0.08% and 0.13%) and high column efficiency (7.3 × 104 plates/m for uridine on Sil-Phe). The retention behavior of the three columns was investigated under different chromatographic conditions including different mobile phase ratio, salt concentration, pH etc. The retention mechanisms were explored by linear solvation energy relationships and Van't Hoff plots. Applications in separation under reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPLC), hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and ion exchange chromatography (IEC) mode were investigated. The results showed that the retention capacity of the stationary phases with different terminal groups to the analytes is very different, especially for carboxylic acids, because the surface charges of amino groups and carboxyl groups under weakly acidic conditions produce different electrostatic effects with dissociated carboxylic acids. Finally, the Sil-Phe column was employed to detect ibuprofen extracted from pharmaceutical ibuprofen capsules and vitamins extracted from vitamin tablets.

Characterization of solute-solvent interactions in liquid chromatography systems: A fast method based on Abraham's linear solvation energy relationships. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1277:341672. [PMID: 37604624 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.341672] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/23/2023]
Abstract
The Abraham's solvation parameter model, based on linear solvation energy relationships (LSER), allows the accurate characterization of the selectivity of chromatographic systems according to solute-solvent interactions (polarizability, dipolarity, hydrogen bonding, and cavity formation). However, this method, based on multilinear regression analysis, requires the measurement of the retention factors of a considerably high number of compounds, turning it into a time-consuming low throughput method. Simpler methods such as Tanaka's scheme are preferred. In the present work, the Abraham's model is revisited to develop a fast and reliable method, similar to the one proposed by Tanaka, for the characterization of columns employed in reversed-phase liquid chromatography and particularly in hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography. For this purpose, pairs of compounds are carefully selected in order to have in common all molecular descriptors except for a specific one (for instance, similar molecular volume, dipolarity, polarizability, and hydrogen bonding basicity features, but different hydrogen bonding acidity). Thus, the selectivity factor of a single pair of test compounds can provide information regarding the extent of the dissimilar solute-solvent interactions and their influence on chromatographic retention. The proposed characterization method includes the determination of the column hold-up volume and Abraham's cavity term by means of the injection of four alkyl ketone homologues. Therefore, five chromatographic runs in a reversed-phase column (four pairs of test solutes and a mixture of four homologues) are enough to characterize the selectivity of a chromatographic system. Tanaka's method is also analyzed from the LSER point of view.

Abstract
Retention mechanisms in HILIC have been investigated and reported in literature. However, the current understanding of retention mechanisms is qualitative and lacks quantitative details. Previously, mechanism elucidation was based on indirect evidence, and unambiguous assignment of retention mechanisms has not been reported based on direct data. This study aims to quantitatively determine the contributions of two major retention mechanisms in HILIC, hydrophilic partitioning and surface adsorption to the overall retention of neutral compounds. Using the methodologies we developed previously, the phase ratio for adsorbed water layer and distribution coefficients were measured and used to calculate the retention factors contributed by hydrophilic partitioning. The methodology allows the determination of the contribution of surface adsorption simultaneously. The evaluation of five test compounds demonstrates that the retention may be controlled by hydrophilic partitioning, surface adsorption or both depending on compound characteristics. Quantitative assessment of retention mechanisms also makes it possible to better understand the effect of acetonitrile on retention in HILIC.

Abstract
The development of facilely synthetic materials acts an essential role in glycoproteome analysis, especially for the highly efficient enrichment of N-linked glycopeptides. In this work, a facile and timesaving route was introduced in which COFTP-TAPT served as a carrier and poly (ethylenimine) (PEI) and carrageenan (Carr) were successively coated on the surface via electrostatic interaction. The resultant COFTP-TAPT@PEI@Carr showed remarkable performance in glycopeptide enrichment with high sensitivity (2 fmol μL-1), high selectivity (1:800, molar ratio of human serum IgG to BSA digests), large loading capacity (300 mg g-1), satisfactory recovery (102.4 ± 6.0%) and reusability (at least eight times). Due to the brilliant hydrophilicity and electrostatic interactions between COFTP-TAPT@PEI@Carr and positively charged glycopeptides, the prepared materials could be applied in the identification and analysis in the human plasma of healthy subjects and patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. As a result, 113 N-glycopeptides with 141 glycosylation sites corresponding to 59 proteins and 144 N-glycopeptides with 177 glycosylation sites corresponding to 67 proteins were enriched from 2 μL plasma trypsin digests of the control groups and patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, respectively. 22 glycopeptides were identified only from the normal controls and 53 glycopeptides were detected only from the other set. The results demonstrated that this hydrophilic material was promising on a large scale and further N-glycoproteome research.

Application to pharmaceutical formulations. Talanta 2023; 255:124228.

Abstract
In this work, a retention behavior based on mixed-mode reversed-phase (RP)/hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) was observed for benzalkonium chloride (BAK) using a core-shell column functionalized with biphenyl groups. Although in the literature, the U-shaped retention was reported for polar compounds in mixed functionalized phases, in the present work, the behavior was dependent upon the chemical structure of the analyte with mixed functionality (ammonium group, a benzyl group and an alkyl chain) and on the high selectivity of the chromatographic column. The bimodal retention was observed for the four BAK homologues using a content of acetonitrile from 65 to 95% in the mobile phase. The data were adjusted to polynomial equations which allow for modeling and predicting the U-shaped retention. The salt concentration (50 and 100 mM), anion (formate and acetate) and cation (ammonium and triethylammonium) of the salt, pH (4 and 5) in the mobile phase were studied in order to understand their influence on the two retention modes. Significant electrostatic interactions were involved in the two retention modes, especially with a content of acetonitrile higher that 90%. Linear relationships between the retention factors of the four homologues were found in a wide range of %acetonitrile when the salt and triethylamine concentration, pH and nature of salt were changed. The differences found on the retention of the homologues, when increasing the alkyl chain length, were more significant in the RP mode due to predominant hydrophobic interactions. A pH decrease and a salt concentration increase caused a retention decrease for both modes. A decrease on of the retention was observed when acetate anion was replaced by formate anion. The different order of the polynomial equations according to the used mobile phase confirmed its relevant role in the interactions with the analytes and stationary phase. A mobile phase was selected (85% acetonitrile, pH 4 and 100 mM ammonium formate) for the BAK determination in cutaneous, otic and ophthalmic formulations with different active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients. Low sample volume (500 μL) and short analysis time (<5 min) were some of the advantages of the proposed method. In addition, good analytical performance (R2 > 0.999, % RSD <4.5% for intra-day precision and <5.8% for inter-day precision, and recoveries in the 92-105% range) was obtained.

Abstract
Glycosylation is one of the most significant and abundant posttranslational modifications in mammalian cells. It mediates a wide range of biofunctions, including cell adhesion, cell communication, immune cell trafficking, and protein stability. Also, aberrant glycosylation has been associated with various diseases such as diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, inflammation, immune deficiencies, congenital disorders, and cancers. The alterations in the distributions of glycan and glycopeptide isomers are involved in the development and progression of several human diseases. However, the microheterogeneity of glycosylation brings a great challenge to glycomic and glycoproteomic analysis, including the characterization of isomers. Over several decades, different methods and approaches have been developed to facilitate the characterization of glycan and glycopeptide isomers. Mass spectrometry (MS) has been a powerful tool utilized for glycomic and glycoproteomic isomeric analysis due to its high sensitivity and rich structural information using different fragmentation techniques. However, a comprehensive characterization of glycan and glycopeptide isomers remains a challenge when utilizing MS alone. Therefore, various separation methods, including liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, and ion mobility, were developed to resolve glycan and glycopeptide isomers before MS. These separation techniques were coupled to MS for a better identification and quantitation of glycan and glycopeptide isomers. Additionally, bioinformatic tools are essential for the automated processing of glycan and glycopeptide isomeric data to facilitate isomeric studies in biological cohorts. Here in this review, we discuss commonly employed MS-based techniques, separation hyphenated MS methods, and software, facilitating the separation, identification, and quantitation of glycan and glycopeptide isomers.

Abstract
The structural properties of ionic liquid stationary phases have a considerable effect on their separation selectivity. However, the difference of the chromatographic retention behavior of different regioisomeric ionic liquid stationary phases has rarely been investigated. In this study, three regioisomeric ionic liquid silane reagents were prepared by photoinitiated ene-click chemistry and bonded to silica by one-pot method to fabricate three new stationary phases (Sil-C2Im-C8, Sil-C6Im-C4, and Sil-C9Im-C1). All three stationary phases showed promising retention repeatability and efficiency. The retention behavior of the three stationary phases was investigated under various chromatographic conditions. The retention mechanism was further investigated by the linear energy solvation relationship and Van't Hoff plots. The stationary phases exhibited mixed-mode retention mechanisms. The π-π, hydrogen bonding, ion-exchange, and hydrophilic interactions with analytes were the weakest when the imidazole ions were embedded in the innermost part of the alkyl chains, while the interactions were the strongest when the imidazole ions were embedded in the middle of the alkyl chains. The three stationary phases provided great but different separation performances towards nucleosides, nucleobases, aromatic acids, alkyl benzenes, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons due to the influence of imidazole ion position.

Abstract
The transfer of neutral compounds between immiscible phases in chromatographic or environmental systems can be described by six solute properties (solute descriptors) using the solvation parameter model. The solute descriptors are size (McGowan's characteristic volume), V, excess molar refraction, E, dipolarity/polarizability, S, hydrogen-bond acidity and basicity, A and B, and the gas-liquid partition constant on n-hexadecane at 298.15 K, L. V and E for liquids are accessible by calculation but the other descriptors and E for solids are determined experimentally by chromatographic, liquid-liquid partition, and solubility measurements. These solute descriptors are available for several thousand compounds in the Abraham solute descriptor databases and for several hundred compounds in the WSU experimental solute descriptor database. In the first part of this review, we highlight features important in defining each descriptor, their experimental determination, compare descriptor quality for the two organized descriptor databases, and methods for estimating Abraham solute descriptors. In the second part we focus on recent applications of the solvation parameter model to characterize environmental systems and its use for the identification of surrogate chromatographic models for estimating environmental properties.

Abstract
We compared the separation selectivities of 19 different hydrophilic interaction chromatography columns. The stationary phases included underivatized silica and hybrid particles, cyano-bonded silica, materials with neutral ligands such as amide, diol, pentahydroxy, and urea, zwitterionic sorbents, and mixed-mode materials with amine functionalities. A set of 77 small molecules was used to evaluate the columns. We visualized the retention behavior of the different columns using retention time correlation plots. The analytes were classified as cations, anions, or neutral based on their estimated charge under the separation conditions. This involved adjusting the dissociation constants of the analytes for the acetonitrile content of the mobile phase and experimentally determining the pH of the mobile phase containing 70% acetonitrile. The retention correlation plots show that the selectivity differences strongly depended on ionic interactions. Comparisons of the neutral stationary phases (e.g., diol vs. amide) showed more similar selectivity than did comparisons of neutral columns versus columns with cation or anion exchange activity (bare silica or amine columns, respectively). The zwitterionic columns did not behave as perfectly neutral. The correlation plots indicated that they exhibited either cation or anion exchange activity, although to a lesser degree than the silica and amine-containing stationary phases.

Abstract
Amino groups in proteins can react with aldehyde groups in aldoses or keto groups in ketoses, e.g., D-glucose and D-fructose, yielding Schiff bases that rearrange to more stable Amadori and Heyns products, respectively. Analytical strategies to identify and quantify each glycation product in the presence of the corresponding isomer are challenged by similar physicochemical properties, impeding chromatographic separations, and by identical masses including very similar fragmentation patterns in tandem mass spectrometry. Thus, we studied the separation of seven peptide families, each consisting of unmodified, glucated, and fructated 15mer to 22mer peptides using reversed-phase (RP) and hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC). In RP-HPLC using acidic acetonitrile gradients, unglycated peptides eluted ~ 0.1 to 0.8 min after the corresponding glycated peptides with four of seven peptides being baseline separated. Isomeric glucated and fructated peptides typically coeluted, although two late-eluting peptides were partially separated. Neutral eluents (pH 7.2) improved the chromatographic resolution (Rs), especially in the presence of phosphate, providing good and often even baseline separations for six of the seven isomeric glycated peptide pairs with fructated peptides eluting earlier (Rs = 0.7 to 1.5). Some glucated and unmodified peptides coeluted, but they can be distinguished by mass spectrometry. HILIC separated glycated and unmodified peptides well, whereas glucated and fructated peptides typically coeluted. In conclusion, HILIC efficiently separated unmodified and the corresponding glycated peptides, while isomeric Amadori and Heyns peptides were best separated by RP-HPLC using phosphate buffered eluents.

Abstract
Retention prediction of monoamine neurotransmitters has been compared for the generally applied linear solvent-strength model and quadratic polynomial three-parameter model. The design of experiments protocol has been applied to plan linear gradients within the experimental space with altered gradient time, mobile phase flowrate, and column temperature. Relative prediction errors increased at elevated temperature, which is more significant for the linear solvent-strength model when compared to the polynomial model. On the other hand, the predefined design of experiments space controls the retention time errors, as predictions for LC conditions that are outside of the plan are much less accurate and should be avoided. The final part of the work deals with the effect of extracolumn band dispersion on the peak capacity of linear gradients at various gradient times, mobile phase flowrates, and column temperature. The peak capacity determined for corrected experimental data were consistent with the published results dealing with the optimization of peak capacity in gradient elution.

Abstract
AbstractThe Abraham linear free energy relationship model has been used to characterize a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) silica column with acetonitrile/water and methanol/water mobile phases. Analysis by the model for acetonitrile/water mobile phases points to solute volume and hydrogen bond basicity as the main properties affecting retention, whereas solute hydrogen bond acidity, dipolarity and polarizability practically do not affect it. Formation of a cavity is easier in acetonitrile-rich mobile phases than in the aqueous stationary phase, and hence increase of solute volume decreases retention. Conversely, hydrogen bond acidity is stronger in the aqueous stationary phase than in the acetonitrile-rich mobile phase and thus an increase of solute hydrogen bond basicity increases retention. Results are similar for methanol/water mobile phases with the difference that solute hydrogen bond acidity is significant too. Increase in hydrogen bond acidity of the solute decreases retention showing that methanol mobile phases must be better hydrogen bond acceptors than acetonitrile ones, and even than water-rich stationary phases. The results are like the ones obtained in zwitterionic HILIC columns bonded to silica or polymer supports for acetonitrile/water mobile phases, but different for solute hydrogen bond acidity for a polymer bonded zwitterionic column with methanol/water mobile phases, indicating that bonding support plays an important role in HILIC retention. Comparison to RPLC characterized systems confirms the complementarity of HILIC systems to RPLC ones because the main properties affecting retention are the same but with reversed coefficients. The least retained solutes in RPLC are the most retained in HILIC.

Abstract
Various polar stationary phases have become available for hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) and help drive continuous applications in biomedical, environmental and pharmaceutical areas in the past decade. Although the stationary phases for HILIC have been reviewed previously, it is an appropriate time to take another look at the progresses during the past five years. The current review provides an overview of the polar stationary phases commercially available for HILIC applications in an effort to assist scientists in selecting suitable columns. New types of stationary phase that were published in literature in the past five years are summarized and discussed. The trend in stationary phase research and development is also highlighted. Of particular interest is the experimental evidence for direct interactions of polar analytes with the ligands of the stationary phases under HILIC conditions. In addition, two different approaches have been developed to delineate the relative significance of the partitioning and adsorption mechanisms in HILIC, representing an important advancement in our understanding of the retention mechanisms in HILIC.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a highly infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has infected more than 235 million individuals and led to more than 4.8 million deaths worldwide as of October 5 2021. Cryo-electron microscopy and topology show that the SARS-CoV-2 genome encodes lots of highly glycosylated proteins, such as spike (S), envelope (E), membrane (M), and ORF3a proteins, which are responsible for host recognition, penetration, binding, recycling and pathogenesis. Here we reviewed the detections, substrates, biological functions of the glycosylation in SARS-CoV-2 proteins as well as the human receptor ACE2, and also summarized the approved and undergoing SARS-CoV-2 therapeutics associated with glycosylation. This review may not only broad the understanding of viral glycobiology, but also provide key clues for the development of new preventive and therapeutic methodologies against SARS-CoV-2 and its variants.

Relative significance of hydrophilic partitioning and surface adsorption to the retention of polar compounds in hydrophilic interaction chromatography. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1184:339025. [PMID: 34625265 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2021.339025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2021] [Revised: 07/28/2021] [Accepted: 09/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
It is commonly acknowledged that the retention of non-ionized polar analytes on polar stationary phases is governed by hydrophilic partitioning and surface adsorption. However, it has been difficult to evaluate whether partitioning or adsorption is the dominant mechanism for a specific polar compound on a polar stationary phase. We have developed a simple method based on the thermodynamic principle of partitioning to quantitatively investigate the retention contributed by the partitioning or adsorption mechanism. By varying phase ratio through changing salt concentration in the mobile phase, we were able to determine the distribution coefficients of cytosine between the adsorbed water layer and the mobile phase containing various levels of acetonitrile. The retention factors of cytosine attributed to partitioning and adsorption were quantitatively determined. The results demonstrate that the dominant retention mechanism for cytosine is hydrophilic partitioning on ZIC-HILIC, XBridge Amide and LUNA-HILIC columns.

Abstract
In order to make up for the deficiencies of traditional C18 column for separating strong polar compounds, combined with the good hydrophilicity of carbon dots (CDs), novel octadecylamine-derived CDs denoted as C18-CDs are designed, synthesized and applied in RPLC/HILIC mixed-mode chromatography with good separation performance towards both hydrophobic and hydrophilic compounds. C18-CDs are synthesized by simple one-step solvothermal method using octadecylamine and citric acid as carbon sources, and C18-CDs with proper polarity are collected through column chromatography purification. This C18-CDs decorated silica column showed good separation performance for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and alkylbenzenes under RPLC mode. Hydrophilic compounds including sulfonamides, nucleosides and nucleobases also achieved good resolution in HILIC mode. Hydrophobic and π-π stacking interactions play major retaining roles in RPLC, whereas hydrophilic partitioning and hydrogen bond interactions turn to the main retention interactions under HILIC mode. This C18-CDs/SiO2 column was applied for the fast detection of chloramphenicol in milk without complex sample pretreatment process. Quantitative relationship between the peak area and the concentration of chloramphenicol was established with linear equation of A = 1677c + 173. Satisfactory spiked recoveries in the range of 94.1-109.0% were obtained. This work not only proposes a simple method for improving the polarity of C18 column through forming octadecane into CDs, but also provides novel CDs with certain hydrophobicity/hydrophily suitable for mixed-mode chromatography.

Abstract
Methionine (MET) is combined with paracetamol (PAR) in a pain relief soft capsule in order to prevent the haematologic damage of paracetamol. A hydrophillic liquid chromatographic (HILIC) method was developed for simultaneous determination of PAR and MET in the combined formulation. Various analytical conditions were investigated, and the final method was chosen using silica column (150 × 4,6 mm; 5 μm), mobile phase of acetonitrile - aqueous solution of 10 mM formic acid 5 mM diethylamine (60:40, v/v), UV detection at 254 nm for PAR and 210 nm for MET. The method was validated according to ICH guidelines in terms of selectivity, linearity, accuracy, precision and robustness. The method was successfully applied for quantitation of both compounds in soft capsule preparations bought from the market. Notably, in this study, a novel approach was proposed to improve peak shape of amino acid - a problem often observed in HILIC. The addition of diethylamine to mobile phase shortened the retention time of MET and significantly improved peak shape on both silica and cyano columns, due to electrostatic interaction competition and silanol end-capping effect. The result of this research demonstrated the advantages of HILIC in simultaneous analysis of a polar compound amino acid, especially in combination with a less polar substance. The use of diethylamine as a mobile phase modifier to enhance peak shape is a new suggestion that can be used in further studies on amino acid analysis by HILIC.

Abstract
It has been confirmed that endogenous glycopeptide plays an important role in a variety of pathological and physiological processes. However, direct analysis of endogenous glycopeptide is still a great challenge owing to the low abundance of endogenous glycopeptides and the presence of a large number of interfering substances such as large-sized proteins and heteropeptides in complex biological sample. Herein, we reported a novel bowl-like mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticle modified by carrageenan (denoted as MPDA@PEI@CA) with strong hydrophilicity and size-exclusion effect for high specificity enrichment of endogenous glycopeptides. Thanks to the suitable pore channel structure as well as strong hydrophilic surface, the as-prepared MPDA@PEI@CA nanoparticles exhibited prominent performance in enrichment of N-linked glycopeptide with ultrahigh selectivity (1:5000 M ratio of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) digests/bovine serum albumin (BSA) digests), low detection limit (5 fmol μL-1), outstanding size-exclusion ability (1:1000 mass of HRP/BSA), and unique reusability (five times). 125 N-glycosylation sites of 134 glycopeptides from 65 glycoproteins were identified from 2 μL sample of human serum treated with the MPDA@PEI@CA nanoparticles, which manifested the ability to enrich endogenous N-linked glycopeptides from complex biological samples. These results indicated that the bowl-like MPDA@PEI@CA nanoparticles with novel structure prepared in this work had great potential for glycopeptidome analysis.

Amphipathic carbon quantum dots-functionalized silica stationary phase for reversed phase/hydrophilic interaction chromatography. Talanta 2021; 226:122148.

Abstract
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are considered as good chromatographic separation materials. However, due to the hydrophily of the synthesized CQDs, their applications in HPLC are limited to HILIC for separating strong polar compounds only. In this work, a novel amphipathic CQDs with both hydrophobicity and hydrophily is developed as mixed-mode stationary phase for RPLC/HILIC. To give CQDs certain hydrophobicity, 1,8-diaminooctane is chosen as one of the carbon sources for introducing alkyl chain into CQDs. The amphipathic CQDs modified silica (CQDs/SiO2) stationary phase has typical characteristic of RPLC/HILIC. Both hydrophobic and hydrophilic compounds including alkylbenzenes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, nucleosides and bases, amino acids, β-adrenoceptor blockers and agonists, sulfonamides, antibiotics and alkaloids obtain satisfactory separation on this CQDs/SiO2 column. 14 nucleosides and bases commonly existing in living organisms achieve good separation on this amphipathic CQDs/SiO2 column within 25 min and the resolutions reach 1.33-13.83 with an average column efficiency of 18,800. The retention mechanism of this novel CQDs/SiO2 column is investigated by linear solvation energy relationship model. It is found that hydrophobic interaction, π-π stacking, hydrogen-bonding and electrostatic interactions are main retention interactions under RPLC mode. This work provides a new approach for synthesis of amphipathic CQDs. Also, it indicates that amphipathic CQDs with versatile functional properties have great prospect in separation science.

Abstract
Achiral packed column supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) has shown an important regain of interest in academic and industrial laboratories in the recent years. In relation to this increased concern, major instrument manufacturers have designed some stationary phases specifically for SFC use. SFC stationary phases have been widely examined over the last two decades, based on the use of linear solvation energy relationships (LSER), which relate analyte retention to its properties and to the interaction capabilities of the chromatographic system. The method provides some understanding on retention mechanisms (normal phase, reversed phase or mixed-mode) and the possibility to compare stationary phases on a rational basis, especially through a spider diagram providing a visual classification. The latter can be used as a primary tool to select complementary stationary phases to be screened for any separation at early stages of method development, before optimization steps. In this context, the characterization of the 14 columns from the Shim-pack UC series (Shimadzu Corporation, Kyoto, Japan), which are dedicated to SFC and more broadly to unified chromatography (UC), was performed, using the LSER methodology. As in previous works, seven descriptors, including five Abraham descriptors (E, S, A, B, V) and two descriptors describing positive and negative charges (D- and D+) were first employed to describe interactions with neutral and charged analytes. Secondly, two more descriptors were introduced, which were previously employed solely for the characterization of enantioselective systems and expressing shape features of the analytes (flexibility F and globularity G). They brought additional insight into the retention mechanisms, showing how spatial insertion of the analytes in some stationary phases is contributing to shape separation capabilities and how folding possibilities in flexible molecules is unfavorable to retention in other stationary phases.

Abstract
Herein, commercially available columns employed in hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) were characterized by determining their ability to selectively distinguish the minute structural differences between small molecules such as nucleosides and xanthines in complex sample matrices. Principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to the data obtained from structurally similar analytes, and the results showed that HILIC columns could generally be classified into two groups: (i) silane-modified columns that were prepared from either native silica particles or silica particles modified with low-molecular-weight silanes and (ii) polymer-modified columns obtained from silica particles functionalized with organic polymers. These two groups could be further subdivided based on the functionalities attached to the respective stationary phases. These results were confirmed via cluster analysis by preparing a dendrogram using the morphology-based selectivity parameters associated with the respective columns. We were able to determine the selectivity of columns for the OH groups, i.e., α(OH) and the prevailing pH conditions (cation- and anion-exchanging natures) on the surface of the respective stationary phases; α(theobromine/theophylline) was employed to obtain a similar two-dimensional plot. This test scheme, in which five compounds were analyze for each column, was helpful for understanding the impact of factors such as the hydrophilicity, degree of hydration, acidity/basicity, or the weak ion-exchange nature of the respective stationary phases on the separation characteristics of new HILIC stationary phases. The selectivity of columns for the CH2 group was also examined. The cation-exchange nature of the HILIC columns significantly influenced native silica columns and some polymer-modified columns. Herein, 45 commercially available HILIC columns were classified according to this method, and the results proved useful for understanding distinct separation characteristics of each HILIC column, enabling improved column selection.

The results show that polarizability and cavity formation interactions increase retention, whereas dipole and hydrogen bonding interactions favours partition to the mobile phase and thus, they decrease retention. The coefficients of the ionic descriptors measure the effect of the electrostatic interactions and their contribution to partition of the cation or anion between the two mobile and stationary chromatographic phases. A new LFER model for application to the retention of partially dissociated acids and bases is derived averaging the descriptors of the neutral and ionic forms according to their degrees of ionization in the mobile phase. This new LFER model is satisfactorily compared to other literature modified Abraham models for a set of 498 retention data of partially dissociated acids and bases. All tested models require the calculation of the ionization degrees of the compounds at the measuring pH. Calculation of the ionization degrees in the chromatographic mobile phase (i.e. from pH and pKa in the eluent) give good correlations for all tested models. However, estimation of these ionization degrees from pH - pKa data in pure water gives biased estimations of the retention of the partially ionized solutes.

Abstract
In this work, the correlations between retention behavior and lipophilicity of a large set of hydrophilic neutral and ionic analytes were studied based on three hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) stationary phases, including zwitterionic, crosslinked diol and triazole stationary phases. It was found that HILIC, due to the diversity of retention mechanism, is a more complex chromatography separation mode than reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) which has been widely accepted for lipophilicity assessment. Because electrostatic interactions contributed to the overall retention of the charged solutes on all three stationary phases, ion-strength of the mobile phase kept the same during the whole experiment. After the correlations between retention factor log k and water volume fraction Φ were investigated, the mixed retention model was revealed to be more suitable for HILIC retention behavior than other single models including partitioning and adsorption model. Moreover, in order to bridge the relationship between HILIC log k and lipophilicity parameter log D, net charge ne and Abraham solvation parameter were introduced in the quantitative structure-retention relationship (QSRR) model. Although the correlation coefficients between log D and log k were still moderate, the significant improvement in correlation has made HILIC a potential choice as the complement of RPLC for log D measurement.

Abstract
New zwitterionic (ZIC) stationary phases (SPs) are synthesized with the click and conventional bonding of tyrosine to silica gel. Infrared spectra and elemental analysis demonstrate the successful click and conventional bonding of this ZIC group on silica particles by the surface coverage including 2.36 and 0.75 µm m-2, respectively. Given the above-mentioned explanation, the present study evaluated the retention mechanism and chromatographic manners of polar compounds on these new materials under hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) conditions. Based on the results, the Click-Tyrosine Stationary Phase provided good HILIC characteristics when it was applied to separate phenolic compounds, amino acids, alkaloids, and nucleobases compared to bare silica gel SP and even conventional tyrosine SPs. Further, this new Click-Tyrosine-SP represented appropriate HILIC features and column efficiency (the theoretical plate number was up to 50,000 plates m-1 for thebaine). Furthermore, the study investigated the effect of solute polarity (the number of the hydroxyl group of phenolic compounds) and hydrophobicity (the number of the side chain of aliphatic amino acids) on retention behaviors. Finally, some important factors were studied as the potential variables for guiding the retention behavior of the polar compound in HILIC condition including solvent composition, salt concentration, and the buffer pH of the mobile phase.

Abstract
In reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC), positively charged basic compounds yield broad and asymmetric peaks, as a result of ionic interactions with free silanols that remain on conventional silica-based columns. Diverse solutions have been proposed to mask the silanophilic activity, which is translated to an improved peak shape. In this work, the chromatographic performance of hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) was evaluated as an alternative to the addition of an ionic liquid (IL) to the aqueous-organic mobile phase used with RPLC columns, for the analysis of eight β-adrenoceptor antagonists. ILs change the behavior of RPLC stationary phases owing to adsorption on their surface. Meanwhile, in HILIC, a layer of adsorbed water is formed on the stationary phase surface. The association of cationic basic compounds with the adsorbed additive ions, hydrophilic partitioning on the HILIC columns, and other interactions, give rise to complex retention mechanisms. The chromatographic behavior was examined in terms of retention, elution strength, selectivity, peak shape and resolution, using acetonitrile-water mobile phases buffered at pH 3. Both chromatographic modes, RPLC with added IL and HILIC, proved to be a viable solution to the problem of poor peak shape for basic compounds.

Abstract
The mixed-mode chromatographic behavior was estimated for imidazoline and serotonin receptor ligands, and their related compounds on dual hydrophilic/reversed phase stationary phase. The Box-Cox transformation was used to obtain the most suitable mathematical equations which describe the mixed-mode retention. Optimal equations were found for the optimization parameter (λ): λ = -1, λ = -0.5, λ = 0, λ = 0.5, and λ = 1. The proposed equations show satisfactory characteristics compared to standard multimodal and quadratic approaches. For a wide range of volume fractions of the mobile phase modifier, crossing between hydrophilic and reversed phase interactions (the turning point) was defined in terms of the minimal retention and the minimum value of the volume fraction of the aqueous eluent in the mobile phase. The cubic spline interpolation was used as a reference method for estimation of the turning point. It was found out that the newly proposed equations can be used as alternative mathematical forms for the description of the dual retention mechanism and for the evaluation of the turning point. Three new experimental descriptors of the mixed-mode retention were proposed. Two descriptors quantitatively characterize hydrophilic (log kH) and reversed phase (log kR) interactions, while the third one (log kA) refers to the average retention for the whole HILIC/RP range. It was established that the main factors which control dual nature of the mixed-mode retention are lipophilicity, dipol-dipol, van der Waals and hydrogen bonding interactions. It was concluded that the newly proposed estimations of the retention data reliably characterize the mixed-mode chromatographic behavior.
