Gritti F. Resolution limits of size exclusion chromatography columns identified from flow reversal and overcome by recycling liquid chromatography to improve the characterization of manufactured monoclonal antibodies. J Chromatogr A 2023; 1705:464219. [PMID: 37499525 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2023.464219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 07/15/2023] [Indexed: 07/29/2023]
Abstract
The flow reversal (FR) technique consists of reversing the flow direction along a chromatographic column. It is used to reveal the origin (such as poor column packing, active sites, or slow absorption/escape kinetics) for the resolution limit of 4.6 mm × 150 mm long columns packed with 1.7 μm 200 Å Bridge-Ethylene-Hybrid (BEHTM) Particles. These columns are used to separate manufactured monoclonal antibodies (mAb, ∼ 150 kDa) from their close impurities (or IdeS fragments, ∼ 100 kDa) by size exclusion chromatography (SEC). FR unambiguously demonstrates that the resolution limit of these SEC columns is primarily due to long-range flow velocity biases covering distances of at least 500 μm across the column diameter. This confirms the existence of center-to-wall flow heterogeneities which cause undesirable tailing for the mAb peak. Because the transverse dispersion coefficient (Dt=1.1 × 10-6 cm2/s) of mAbs across the column diameter is intrinsically low, the bandspreading of the mAb in a single flow direction is in part reversible upon reversing the flow direction. For the very same residence time in the column, the column efficiency is found to increase by +85% relative to that observed under conventional elution mode. The observed peak tailing of the mAb and its sub-units is not caused by active surface sites or by slow absorption/escape from the BEH Particles. Therefore, the most critical mAb impurities (hydrolytic degradation Fab/c and IdeS [Formula: see text] fragments) can only be successfully separated and quantified with acceptable accuracy by adopting alternate pumping recycling liquid chromatography (APRLC). APRLC enables the full baseline separation of the mAb and 100 kDa mAb fragments and partial separation of Fab/c and [Formula: see text] fragments after increasing the number of cycles to ten. It was made possible to accurately measure the relative abundances of the mAb (99.0 ± 0.1%), [Formula: see text] fragment (0.88 ± 0.03%), and Fab/c immunogenic fragment (0.13 ± 0.02%) in less than 45 min for a total mAb sample load of only 5 μg. Still, further improvements are needed to increase the sensitivity of the APRLC method and to reduce the solvent consumption by adopting narrow-bore 2.1 mm i.d. SEC columns.

Abstract
Scarlet morning glory, Ipomoea hederifolia L. (Convolvulaceae), is an ornamental vine native to the Americas with oxytocic, cytotoxic, antipsychotic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. A chemical study of the glycosidic acids from the resin glycosides contained in the aerial parts was carried out, through their isolation as peracetylated derivatives, by recycling preparative liquid chromatography. Structure elucidation was performed by HR-MS in accordance with NMR. Four peracetylated derivatives of glycosidic acids, named hederifolic acids A-D, were identified as heptaglycosides and hexaglycosides linked to 3S,12S-dihydroxyheptadecanoic acid or 12 S-hydroxyheptadecanoic acid. Consequently, hederifolic acids B and D were found to be dehydroxylated homologs at C-3 of the fatty acid aglycones of hederifolic acids A and C, respectively.

Abstract
Herein we present a new high-throughput screening method for carbohydrate syntheses based on cyclic ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (cIMS-MS)-based separations. We rapidly resolved the α/β anomers for carbohydrates with varying protecting groups after only 5 m of cIMS-MS separation and also detected their respective unwanted anomeric impurities at levels lower than 2%. All experiments were performed in 1 minute of total acquisition time demonstrating our method's high-throughput nature. Our methodology was also extended to the separation of an isomeric mixtures of two protected disaccharides illustrating its utility beyond only monosaccharides. We envision our presented workflow as a first step toward the development of a high-throughput screening platform for the rapid and sensitive detection of α/β anomeric selectivities and for trace isomeric/isobaric impurities.

Abstract
A semi-preparative twin-column recycling liquid chromatography (TCRLC) process was extended from isocratic to gradient elution mode. The main separation challenge is when the sample mixture contains early, nearly coeluting, and late impurities, all at the same time. To further improve classical isocratic TCRLC, the gradient TCRLC (GTCRLC) process was implemented with a 2-position 4-port valve in order to better shave the targeted sample from all these impurities. Prior to fully resolving the target compound(s) from the closest impurities by classical isocratic TCRLC, the added valve enabled full elimination by gradient elution mode of not only the early impurities but also any highly retained late impurities that could contaminate the collected fractions of the target compound(s). This GTCRLC process was entirely automated regarding the initial gradient applied, the recycling conditions, and the actuation times of the two valves. The GTCRLC process was applied for the isolation of a single polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), chrysene, present in a complex PAH mixture. In addition, the GTCRLC process was successfully applied to clean vitamins D2 and D3 from a milk extract and to baseline resolve them.

Rebirth of recycling liquid chromatography with modern chromatographic columns : Extension to gradient elution. J Chromatogr A 2021; 1653:462424.

Abstract
Twin column recycling semi-preparative liquid chromatography (TCRLC) is revived to prepare small amount (∼ 1 mg) of a pure targeted compound, which cannot be isolated by conventional preparative liquid chromatography. In this work, TCRLC is extended to gradient elution. The first step of this modified process consists of a gradient step, which eliminates both early and late impurities. If not discarded, some late impurities could echo during the second isocratic recycling step of the process and compromise the purity level required for the targeted compound. Additionally, the entire gradient TCRLC (GTCRLC) process is automated regarding the eluent composition programmed and the actuation times of two valves: one two-position four-port divert valve enables to shave the targeted compound from early and late impurities during the initial gradient step. The second two-position six-port recycling valve ensures the complete baseline resolution between the band of the targeted compound and those of the closest impurities, which are not fully eliminated after the initial gradient step. The automation of the whole GTCRLC process is achieved by running four preliminary scouting gradient runs (at four different relative gradient times, tgt0= 2, 6, 18, and 54, where t0 is the hold-up column time) for the accurate determination of the thermodynamics (lnk versus φ plots of the retention factor as a function of the mobile phase composition) of the first impurity, the targeted compound(s), and of the last impurity. The automated GTCRLC process was successfully applied for the isolation of a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), chrysene, from a complex mixture of PAHs containing two nearly co-eluting impurities (benzo[a]anthracene and triphenylene) and nine other early/late impurities (sample volume injected: 1 mL, 7.8 mm × 150 mm Sunfire-C18 column, acetonitrile/water eluent mixtures, T= 55 ∘C, 20 cycles, baseline separation in less than two hours). Additionally, the GTCRLC process is advantageously used to isolate and baseline separate the vitamins D2 and D3 initially present in a milk extract mixture (0.3 mL sample injection volume, 7.8 mm × 150 mm Sunfire-C18 column, methanol/water eluent mixtures, T= 65 ∘C, 14 cycles needed in 1.5 hours). These results open promising avenues toward an effective preparation of unknown targeted compounds before further physico-chemical characterization and unambiguous identification.

Abstract
In this work, a methoxy terminated poly dimethylsiloxane modified silica gel material was proposed as a novel stationary phase for reversed-phase liquid chromatography. With 5 μm silica gel as matrix, methoxy terminated poly dimethylsiloxane polymer was grafted by one step chemical bonding reaction. The obtained stationary phase was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and element analysis. To our knowledge, this is the novel methoxy terminated poly dimethylsiloxane bonded stationary phase with good separation efficiency (42107-46988 plates/m for benzene homologues) and high stability (RSD is 0.08-5.09%). Comparing to other traditional columns of the same type, the proposed stationary phase has a wider polarity separation scale and shorter analysis time. In addition to the rapid separation of hydrophobic compound, such column also exhibited great potential in the separation of hydrophilic analytes.

Abstract
Twin-column recycling chromatography with a solvent gradient (TCRC-SG) was investigated with the equilibrium-dispersive chromatography model. The solvent gradient caused by constant addition of a modifier between the two columns created a band compression effect to counterbalance band broadening, so that the target component band neither broadened nor shrunk. Meanwhile, band compression accelerated the separation but prevented excessive separation. Increasing the volume fraction of weak solvent in the modifier and reducing the modifier flowrate enhanced band compression and improved the separation. The effect of column efficiency (number of theoretical plates: 500-1500) on the separation was not significant. According to the separation behavior, a simple operation scheme is proposed to automatically control column switching without needing to determine the adsorption isotherm and designing operating conditions in advance. In comparison with simulated moving bed, TCRC-SG had a higher feed throughput, but consumed more solvent. The results showed that TCRC-SG is favorable for preparative separation.

Abstract
The development of versatile mixed-mode stationary phase materials is of important meanings for solving the increasing demands for real sample analysis. Herein, with 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid as the organic ligand and nickel as the metal centre, MOF-74 nanocrystal materials were facilely grafted on the surface of carboxyl-functionalized silica gel via layer-by-layer assembling technique. The structures of the monodisperse MOF-74@SiO2 material were proved by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller specific surface area and pore size analyzer, respectively. Because the introduced 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid is of hydrophilic carboxyl and hydroxyl groups, the packed MOF-74@SiO2 column reveals hydrophilic interaction/reversed-phase mixed-mode retention properties. Compared with commercial C8 column or silica-based column, the MOF-74@SiO2 column shows distrinct separation selectivity in short separation time for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, phenolic compounds and polar sulfonamide compounds. The developed MOF-74@SiO2 column was further successfully applied for the separation and detection of illegal addition of glucocorticoid in children's face cream as well as sulfonamides veterinary drug residues in pure milk. The research provides a simple and convenient approach to prepare multifunctional MOFs-based stationary phase materials.

Abstract
While glycoscience has become well recognized as an indispensable area in biomedical research, studies on the function of individual glycans remains a great challenge due to the lack of tools and methods. One of the greatest impediments to progress in this area is the lack of biomedically relevant complex glycans in sufficient quantity and purity for structural and functional analysis. Despite recent advances in chemoenzymatic synthesis of complex glycans, generating significant amounts of pure glycans is limited to laboratories with specialized expertise. We have previously reported the oxidative release of natural glycans (ORNG) using household bleach, which provides large quantities of biologically relevant glycans that can be a source of glycans in quantities (>mg scale) suitable for functional studies. However, the preparative scale separation of complicated glycan mixtures has not been studied due largely to the fact that gram quantities of starting glycans have not been available until now. Here we report the adoption of closed-loop, recycle HPLC to resolve closely related glycan structures, including complex glycan isomers at preparative scale (10-100 mg).

Abstract
Rhamnan and rhamnan sulfate are naturally occurring carbohydrates that have important biological functions and possible therapeutic applications, but studies are limited to the microheterogeneous mixtures from natural sources. This work reports the first synthesis of any sulfated rhamnan fragments and successful automation of the process with a recently developed automated solution-phase approach using N-iodosuccinimide/trimethylsilyl triflate (NIS/TMSOTf) promotor and levulinoyl ester deprotection conditions. The automated solution-phase activation/deprotection approach was initially able to create alpha 1 → 2, 1 → 3 type rhamnan di- and trisaccharide in moderate yields. Once these targets were achieved, a process to use SO3•pyridine complex in DMF for sulfation compatible with an automated solution-phase liquid handling system was developed and successfully applied to carbohydrate sulfation to create two rhamnan sulfate fragments with differing monosulfation patterns.

Abstract
Background The separation of isomeric compounds from a mixture is a recurring problem in chemistry and phytochemistry research. The purification of pharmacologically active ginsenoside Rb3 from ginseng extracts is limited by the co-existence of its isomer Rb2. The aim of the present study was to develop an enzymatic elimination-combined purification method to obtain pure Rb3 from a mixture of isomers. Methods To isolate Rb3 from the isomeric mixture, a simple enzymatic selective elimination method was used. A ginsenoside-transforming glycoside hydrolase (Bgp2) was employed to selectively hydrolyze Rb2 into ginsenoside Rd. Ginsenoside Rb3 was then efficiently separated from the mixture using a traditional chromatographic method. Results Chromatographic purification of Rb3 was achieved using this novel enzymatic elimination-combined method, with 58.6-times higher yield and 13.1% less time than those of the traditional chromatographic method, with a lower minimum column length for purification. The novelty of this study was the use of a recombinant glycosidase for the selective elimination of the isomer. The isolated ginsenoside Rb3 can be used in further pharmaceutical studies. Conclusions Herein, we demonstrated a novel enzymatic elimination-combined purification method for the chromatographic purification of ginsenoside Rb3. This method can also be applied to purify other isomeric glycoconjugates in mixtures.

Abstract
We report on the development of an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for simultaneously measuring eight biomarkers of volatile organic compound (VOC) exposure, with potential application to e-cigarette aerosol biomonitoring. Phenylmercapturic acid (PMA) and trans, trans-muconic acid (tt-MA) are metabolites of benzene; 2-aminothiazoline-4-carboxylic acid (ATCA) is a metabolite of cyanide; N-2-furoylglycine (N2FG) is a metabolite of furfural and furfuryl alcohol; 5-hydroxymethylfuroic acid (HMFA), 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furoylglycine (HMFG), and 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) are metabolites of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural; and 5-hydroxy-N-methylpyrrolidone (5HMP) is a metabolite of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone. A pentafluorophenyl-modified silica column was used for chromatographic separation. The overall run time for the method is about 6 min per sample injection. The method has low to sub-nanograms per milliliter sensitivity, linearity over 3 orders of magnitude, and precision and accuracy within 15%. The method was used to measure human urine samples. Results showed that people with known benzene exposure (daily cigarette smokers) had higher levels of tt-MA and PMA compared with non-smokers. The method is advantageous for high-throughput analysis of selected VOC metabolites in large-scale, population-based studies such as the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Quantifying these urinary biomarkers is important to public health efforts to understand human exposure to VOCs from various sources, including tobacco products and electronic nicotine delivery systems.

Acid-mediated N-iodosuccinimide-based thioglycoside activation for the automated solution-phase synthesis of α-1,2-linked-rhamnopyranosides. PURE APPL CHEM 2019.

Abstract
Abstract
Carbohydrate structures are often complex. Unfortunately, synthesis of the range of sugar combinations precludes the use of a single coupling protocol or set of reagents. Adapting known, reliable bench-chemistry reactions to work via automation will help forward the goal of synthesizing a broad range of glycans. Herein, the preparation of di- and tri-saccharides of alpha 1→2 rhamnan fragments is demonstrated using thioglycoside donors with the development for a solution-phase-based automation platform of commonly used activation conditions using N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) with trimethylsilyl triflate. Byproducts of the glycosylation reaction are shown to be compatible with hydrazine-based deprotection conditions, lending broader functionality to this method as only one fluorous-solid-phase extraction step per coupling/deprotection cycle is required.

Abstract
Presented herein are two complementary approaches to the synthesis of the core N-glycan pentasaccharide. The first, a traditional manual approach in solution, makes use of the H-bond-mediated aglycone delivery method for the highly diastereoselective introduction of the β-mannosidic linkage at room temperature. The synthesis of the core pentasaccharide was also accomplished using an high-performance liquid chromatography-assisted automated approach. The overall assembly was swift (8 h) and efficient (31%).

Abstract
Common carbohydrate protecting group reactions under continuous flow processes are reported in the context of producing partially-protected glucose building blocks from levoglucosan. Benzyl ether protection was demonstrated without the use of NaH using barium oxide, which, however, pointed to the need for forms of this catalyst not as susceptible to close packing under flow. Acylation conditions were developed under continuous flow in acetonitrile and avoiding pyridine. Ring-opening the derivatized levoglucosan with propanethiol was also demonstrated producing S-alkyl 2,4-di-O-benzyl-glucopyranoside building block in 2 rather than 12 steps in increased overall yield.

Abstract
Advances in carbohydrate chemistry have certainly made common oligosaccharides much more accessible. However, many current methods still rely heavily upon specialized knowledge of carbohydrate chemistry. The application of automated technologies to chemical and life science applications such as genomics and proteomics represents a vibrant field. These automated technologies also present opportunities for their application to organic synthesis, including that of the synthesis of oligosaccharides. However, application of automated methods to the synthesis of carbohydrates is an underdeveloped area as compared to other classes of biomolecules. The overarching goal of this review article is to present the advances that have been made at the interface of carbohydrate chemistry and automated technology.
