Abstract
现有自由流电泳(FFE)装置因不具备在线检测功能,其实用性仍然存在明显不足。针对这一问题,该工作发展了一种多通道电容耦合式非接触电导检测(MC-C4D)装置并开发了自动测量软件。MC-C4D装置采用了并行分时的非接触电导检测技术,即由多个同样的非接触电导检测模块并行排列,而单个电导检测模块又由多个非接触电导检测池组成,采用模拟开关切换这些检测池,能够分时检测流经相应检测池溶液的电导率。多个电导检测模块的检测池总数等于FFE的组分数,它们分别串行接入到FFE各流路中,这样MC-C4D装置就可在线并行分时在线测量各组分溶液的电导率。为验证所设计MC-C4D装置的检测性能,采用配制的氯化钾标准溶液作为检测对象对MC-C4D装置进行了标定和测试。实验数据表明,MC-C4D装置电导率检测范围为0.015~2.5 mS/cm,检出限(LOD)为0.002 mS/cm,日内相对标准偏差(RSD, n=3)为2.31%,测量相对误差(RE)为3.03%和通道间测量相对偏差为1.60%,这些参数表明该装置检测范围较大,LOD低,重复性好,准确性高,通道间测量相对偏差小。另外,将MC-C 4D装置应用于往复式自由流等电聚焦电泳(RFFIEF)在蛋白质聚焦过程中对各组分溶液电导率进行实时在线检测,结果表明,所开发的MC-C4D装置不仅可实现对FFE各组分溶液电导率的实时在线检测,而且还可在RFFIEF实验中辅助掌握分离的实验进度,提高FFE装置的实用性。

Dong S, Jiang Z, Liu Z, Chen L, Zhang Q, Tian Y, Sohail A, Khan MI, Xiao H, Liu X, Wang Y, Li H, Wu H, Liu W, Cao C. Purification of low-abundance lysozyme in egg white via free-flow electrophoresis with gel-filtration chromatography. Electrophoresis 2020; 41:1529-1538. [PMID: 32529672 DOI: 10.1002/elps.201900479] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2019] [Revised: 05/29/2020] [Accepted: 05/31/2020] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
As an effective separation tool, free-flow electrophoresis has not been used for purification of low-abundance protein in complex sample matrix. Herein, lysozyme in complex egg white matrix was chosen as the model protein for demonstrating the purification of low-content peptide via an FFE coupled with gel fitration chromatography (GFC). The crude lysozyme in egg while was first separated via free-flow zone electrophoresis (FFZE). After that, the fractions with lysozyme activity were condensed via lyophilization. Thereafter, the condensed fractions were further purified via a GFC of Sephadex G50. In all of the experiments, a special poly(acrylamide- co-acrylic acid) (P(AM-co-AA)) gel electrophoresis and a mass spectrometry were used for identification of lysozyme. The conditions of FFZE were optimized as follows: 130 μL/min sample flow rate, 4.9 mL/min background buffer of 20 mM pH 5.5 Tris-Acetic acid, 350 V, and 14 °C as well as 2 mg/mL protein content of crude sample. It was found that the purified lysozyme had the purity of 80% and high activity as compared with its crude sample with only 1.4% content and undetectable activity. The recoveries in the first and second separative steps were 65% and 82%, respectively, and the total recovery was about 53.3%. The reasons of low recovery might be induced by diffusion of lysozyme out off P(AM-co-AA) gel and co-removing of high-abundance egg ovalbumin. All these results indicated FFE could be used as alternative tool for purification of target solute with low abundance.

Stastna M. Continuous flow electrophoretic separation - Recent developments and applications to biological sample analysis. Electrophoresis 2019; 41:36-55. [PMID: 31650578 DOI: 10.1002/elps.201900288] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2019] [Revised: 10/08/2019] [Accepted: 10/10/2019] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
Continuous flow electrophoretic separation with continuous sample loading provides the advantage of processing volumes of any sizes, as well as the benefit of a real-time monitoring and optimization of the separation process. In addition, the spatial separation of the sample enables collecting multiple separated components simultaneously and in a continuous manner. The separation is usually performed in mild buffers without organic solvents and detergents (sample biological activity is retained) and it is carried out without usage of a solid support in the separation space preventing the interaction of the sample with it (high sample recovery). The method is used for the separation of proteins/peptides in proteomic applications, and its great applicability is to the separation of the cells, cellular organelles, vesicles, membrane fragments, and DNA. This review focuses on the electrophoretic separation performed in a continuous flow and it describes various electrophoretic modes and instrumental setups. Recent developments in methodology and instrumentation, the integration with other techniques, and the application to the biological sample analysis are discussed as well.
