Abstract
A hydrophilic silica-based stationary phase with surface bound N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc-silica) was prepared in house and characterized physically via Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and chromatographically over a wide range of mobile phase compositions. While both FTIR and TGA confirmed the attachment of the GlcNAc ligands to the silica surface, the chromatographic evaluation of GlcNAc-silica with polar and slightly polar standard solutes (e.g., sugars, nucleic acid fragments, phenolic, and benzoic acid derivatives) yielded the typical hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) behaviors in the sense that retention increased with increases in solute polarity and the organic content (i.e., acetonitrile) of the hydro-organic mobile phase (i.e., ACN-rich mobile phase). Sugars derivatized with 1-naphthylamine (1-NA) and 2-aminoanthrcene (2-AA) such as xylose, glucose, and short chains maltooligosaccharides constituted the most polar species for HILIC retention evaluation, and in addition, the maltooligosaccharides offered a polar homologous series for gauging the hydrophilicity of GlcNAc-silica in analogy with alkylbenzene homologous series and other nonpolar homologues for evaluating the hydrophobicity of non-polar stationary phases. On the other hand, the benzoic acid and phenolic acid derivatives were the probe solutes for evaluating the HILIC retention dependence of ionizable solutes on the pH of the mobile phase. Similarly, the nucleobase and nucleoside weak basic solutes as well as some typical cyclic nucleotide acidic solutes allowed for the examination of the dependence of solute retention on the pH of the mobile as well as the polarity of the species.

J Chromatogr A 2023; 1695:463933. [PMID: 36966604 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2023.463933] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/19/2023]
Abstract
The facile preparation of a monolithic capillary column with surface bound polar ligands for use in hydrophilic interaction capillary electrochromatography is described. It involved the conversion of poly(carboxyethyl acrylate[CEA]-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate[EDMA]) precursor monolith (the so-called carboxy monolith) into a Tris bonded monolith by a post-polymerization functionalization process in the presence of a water soluble carbodiimide, namely N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N´-ethylcarbodiimidehydrochloride. The carbodiimide assisted conversion, allowed the covalent attachment of the carboxyl group of the precursor monolith to the amino group of the Tris ligand via a stable amide linkage. This resulted in the formation of Tris poly(CEA-co-EDMA) monolith, which exhibited the typical retention behavior of hydrophilic interaction stationary phase when analyzing polar and slightly polar neutral or charged compounds. In fact, neutral polar species such as dimethylformamide, formamide and thiourea were retained in the order of increased polarity with acetonitrile rich mobile phase. Also, neutral p-nitrophenyl maltooligosaccharides (PNP-maltooligosaccharides) served as a polar homologous series for gauging the hydrophilicity of the Tris poly(CEA-co-EDMA) monolith, thus forming a versatile testing homologous series for other hydrophilic columns. Other polar anionic species (e.g., hydroxy benzoic acids and nucleotides) and weakly polar anionic compounds (e.g., dansyl amino acids and phenoxy acid herbicides) as well as polar weak bases namely nucleobases and nucleosides were used to probe the hydrophilic characters of the Tris poly(CEA-co-EDMA) monolith. The various polar and weakly polar compounds just mentioned revealed the wide potentiality of the hydrophilic interaction column under investigation.

Abstract
Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MrgX2) has been identified to be critical in drug-induced pseudo-allergic reactions and allergic diseases. Herein, an affinity high-performance liquid chromatography was established for the specific detection and enrichment of MrgX2. Substance P was used as an affinity ligand and immobilized on a glutaraldehyde-modified amino silica gel. The successful grafting of substance P was characterized by infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and nitrogen adsorption and desorption analyzes. The prepared materials were then used as the stationary phase to investigate the retention behavior of MrgX2 recombinant protein on the affinity column. The results obtained with the analytical techniques show the specificity and selectivity of the MrgX2 recombinant protein on the affinity column. The repeatability and reproducibility for the analysis of MrgX2 on the NH2-Silico@GD@SP column show relative standard deviation (RSD) values lower than the acceptance criteria of 2 and 5% of retention time, and RSD of peak areas < 7%. The RSD value of the results obtained for the control of the activity of the prepared columns respond to the acceptance criteria of 5% and proves that the NH2-Silico@GD@SP column are stable until 48 h. The suitability of the NH2-Silico@GD@SP column offline SEC system has been tested by using MrgX2 as positive control. The results of this experiment indicate that the offline system may be used to analyze the retention fraction. MrgX2 extracted from human mast cells LAD2 was also verified. An obvious retention can be observed and the natural MrgX2 was concentrated 114.6 times compared with the original complex components by using the affinity column. These results may provide a new approach for the specific detection and enrichment of G-protein-coupled receptors.

Abstract
The modification of the surface of silica gel to prepare hydrophilic chromatographic fillers has recently become a research interest. Most researchers have grafted natural sugar-containing polymers onto chromatographic surfaces. The disadvantage of this approach is that the packing structure is singular and the application scope is limited. In this paper, we explore the innovative technique of grafting a sugar-containing polymer, 2-gluconamidoethyl methacrylamide (GAEMA), onto the surface of silica gel by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). The SiO2-g-GAEMA with ATRP reaction time was characterized by Fourier infrared analysis, Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and elemental analysis. As the reaction time lengthened, the amount of GAEMA grafted on the surface of the silica gel gradually increased. The GAEMA is rich in amide bonds and hydroxyl groups and is a typical hydrophilic chromatography filler. Finally, SiO2-g-GAEMA (reaction time = 24 h) was chosen as the stationary phase of the chromatographic packing and evaluated with four polar compounds (uracil, cytosine, guanosine, and cytidine). Compared with unmodified silica gel, modified silica gel produces sharper peaks and better separation efficiency. This novel packing material may have a potential for application with highly isomerized sugar mixtures.
