Ibuprofen and Impurities Method Transfer from HPLC to U-HPLCThe modified European Pharmacopeia (EP) HPLC method for ibuprofen and related substances has been transferred to U-HPLC , reducing analysis time while maintaining chromatographic integrity.
Sub-2 µm particle packed columns offer advantages over the moretraditional columns packed with 3 and 5 µm particles by providingshorter analysis times, improvements in resolving power, sensitivityand peak capacity. When transferring methods from HPLC to U-HPLCif both particle size and column dimensions are also reduced, significantsavings in analysis time and solvent consumption can be achieved.However, care must be taken to ensure operating flow rate, gradientprofiles and injection volumes are scaled appropriately to obtain anequivalent or superior separation. This application note illustrates thesavings that can be made when transferring a method (adapted fromthe EP) from a 150 x 4.6 mm 5 µm column to a 50 x 2.1 mm columnpacked with 1.9 µm particles.

Results and DiscussionThe method was transferred geometrically to the 50 x 2.1 mm, 1.9 µmcolumn by scaling the flow rate, injection volume and gradient profile togive an equivalent separation in terms of chromatographic efficiency.The chromatographic profiles obtained for the original HPLC method (a)and the geometrically scaled U-HPLC method (b) are shown in the figure above. The resolution (USP) of peaks 5 and 6 is maintained (1.6)while analysis time is reduced by approximately seven-fold (last peakelutes at 46.5 min and 6.5 min, respectively). If column re-equilibrationtime between runs is taken into consideration then an eight-foldreduction in analysis time and a fourteen-fold reduction in solventconsumption were observed with the U-HPLC method.

Porous Graphitic Carbon for the LC/MS Analysis of Hydrophilic PeptidesThe advantages of using porous graphitic carbon (PGC) in the LC/MS analysis of di-, tetra- andpenta-peptides containing polar and basic terminal amino acid residues are demonstrated.
Small hydrophilic peptides are not retained and, therefore, are oftenfound in the flow-through fraction from a C18 LC column, the type ofstationary phase most commonly used for the separation of proteolyticdigests of proteins. The analysis of the flow-through fraction requireseither a stationary phase that can retain the peptides away from thesolvent front, where the biological salts and buffers elute, or a sample clean-up step to remove the salts.1 PGC’s retention mechanisminvolves a charge-induced interaction of the polar analyte with thepolarizable surface of the graphite.2 PGC is an ideal stationary phaseideal to retain and resolve very polar, hydrophilic molecules, whichare normally not retained under reversed-phase LC using typical MScompatible mobile phases. In this application note it is demonstratedhow PGC columns increase capacity factors over alkyl-silica columnsfor small hydrophilic peptides.

Results and DiscussionIn the figure the retention of a di-, tetra- and a penta-peptide is com-pared on the alkyl-silica phase and on PGC. On the alkyl-silica phase,typically used in the separation of proteolytic digests, RGES elutes atthe solvent front, closely followed by DSDPR. The basic (Arg) andalcohol (Ser) terminal residues make these short peptides hydrophilicand difficult to retain under conventional reversed-phase LC/MS conditions. On the PGC column these short peptides are well retainedaway from the solvent front. PGC provides higher retention (capacityfactor) and different selectivity.

On-Line Sample Clean-Up for the LC/MS Analysis ofSmall Molecules in SerumOn-line sample clean-up utilizing SEC for the removal of matrix interferents from biologicalsamples reduces the total time required for analysis and has the added advantage of being easily automated.
Drug discovery/detection commonly focuses on analytes which arepresent in biological matrices. Direct injection of such samples ontoLC and LC/MS systems is problematic as analytes of interest can be‘lost’ in the concentrated matrix peak, plus instrument and columncontamination readily occurs. Traditionally, solid phase extraction (SPE)has been used for sample pre-treatment and clean-up, but this can betime consuming and adds an additional stage to the analytical method.
The ability to automate biological assays, minimize the numberof steps and reduce overall analysis time is becoming increasinglyimportant. On-line sample clean-up utilizing size exclusion chromatog-raphy (SEC) fulfills these criteria. On-line SEC is a two-dimensionalapproach in which serum is injected directly onto a small pore sizeexclusion column and then the analytes, once separated from thematrix, are eluted onto an analytical column. On-line SEC reducessample preparation time, minimizes potential analyte loss and resultsin increased productivity and higher sample throughput.1

* SEC column equilibrated with 100% buffer for 2 min before start of gradient,eluent diverted to waste.
Results and DiscussionTo determine the time to divert the flow to waste after sample injec-tion, a comparison of the injections of serum alone and serum dosedwith the analyte was performed. Figure 1a shows the resultant UVtrace for blank serum. Lamivudine (the least retained of the analytes)was found to elute at ~ 0.8 minutes, therefore the switch valve wasset to direct flow to the analytical column at 0.75 minutes. The majorserum peak elutes earlier at ~ 0.5 minutes and, therefore, is preventedfrom contaminating the analytical column.
The separation of the drugs from serum with on-line SEC teamedwith isocratic analytical separation is depicted in Figure 1b. The percentage recoveries achieved were greater than 100, 89 and 79%for abacavir, lamivudine and zidovudine, respectively. During thecourse of experimentation, over 110 runs were performed with no significant deterioration in column performance observed, illustratingthat the methodology is robust and reproducible.

SPE-LC/ESI/MS Method for the Analysis of Polar Micro Pollutants inEnvironmental WatersAn SPE-LC/ESI/MS method for the analysis of polar degradation products of atrazine allowstheir determination in environmental waters at the 0.1 μg/L level.
Increasingly, environmental protection legislation designates maximumlevels permitted for micro-pollutants in water below the µg/L level.These detection levels require sample preparation and pre-concentrationbecause they are too dilute. In solid phase extraction (SPE), the analytes are extracted provided they are retained by the sorbent andnot eluted too rapidly by the water in the sample. However, traceanalysis of very polar pollutants is still a challenge, since traditionalC18-silica and PS-DVB materials do not adequately retain these compounds.1 Porous graphitic carbon (PGC, Hypercarb) retains highlypolar and water-soluble compounds and is useful for the trace-leveldetermination of polar water pollutants.
This application presents a SPE procedure and LC/ESI/MS methodusing Hypercarb for the analysis of polar degradation products ofatrazine (ammeline - ANE, ammelide - ADE, atrazin-desethyl-desiso-propyl - DEIA, atrazin-desethyl - DEA, atrazin-desisopropyl - DIA, Cyanuricacid - Cya) that allow their detection in water at the 0.1 µg/L level.
Experimental ConditionsSPE

Part Number: 60106-402Volume: 6 mLBed Weight: 500 mgConditioning: 10 mL MeOH followed by 10 mL H2O, vacuum at 3 mm HgApplication: 500 mL, vacuum at 10 mm HgElution: 6 mL (MeOH/THF, 1:1) + 0.1% TFA (stand for 1 min,
vacuum at 3 mm Hg), 6 mL (MeOH/THF, 1:1) + 0.1% TFA(vacuum at 3 mm Hg).
The sample was dried under nitrogen and re-dissolved in 1 mL of H2O.

- ESI ([M - H]-) for cyanuric acidTemperature: 68 °C
Results and DiscussionA typical trace for the separation in LC/ESI/MS is shown in Figure 1.Average recoveries for a pre-concentrated, 500 mL of water spikedwith 0.1 µg/L each of the six polar degradation compounds rangedbetween 75 and 100%. These results demonstrate that the use ofPGC in SPE to extract very polar pollutants from water will allow theloading of high volumes of water when target analyte pre-concentra-tion is required to detect trace pollutants. Also PGC as a stationaryphase for the LC separation retains very polar molecules and allows the use of weakly buffered mobile phases ideal for sensitiveMS detection.

EPA Method 610: Increasing Analysis ThroughputVarying GC column dimensions and running conditions can significantly reduce run timesleading to increased throughput.
The pressure of heavy workload and the continuing need to improveproductivity in a modern environmental laboratory requires a highthroughput of samples. With advances in sample preparation methods,GC analysis time is becoming the rate-determining step for manyanalyses.
This application note demonstrates the combination of severalmethod approaches for speeding up environmental analyses usingtwo TRACE™ TR-5MS (5% phenyl polysiphenylene-siloxane coated)columns. The key outcome is the reduction in analysis time whilemaintaining resolution, elution order and sensitivity, using readilyavailable techniques such as alteration of column length, oven temperature ramp, column ID and film thickness. The sample used for the comparison is the 16 component standard mixture used in EPA 610 (polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons).

Results and DiscussionFigure 1 illustrates the reduction in analysis time from 45 to 5 minutesby decreasing the column length, ID and film thickness and simultane-ously using a faster temperature program and running at constantpressure, which increases the linear velocity at the beginning of therun where the peaks are well separated.

Rapid Analysis of Priority Phenolic Pollutants with Hypersil GOLD 1.9 μm and U-HPLCTransferring a method for the analysis of priority phenolic pollutants using Hypersil GOLDcolumns to U-HPLC significantly increases analysis speed and sensitivity
Phenolic compounds are of environmental importance due to their relatively high toxicity at low levels and their presence in environmentalwaters and organic matter, following degradation of a range of industrial products such as pesticides and herbicides.
Reverse-phase liquid chromatography (RP-LC) has been shown toeffectively separate and detect a range of phenolic compounds at lowppb levels, following various extraction methods. Such methods providea realistic alternative to traditional analytical approaches using gaschromatography (GC), which tend to be hindered by lengthy samplepreparation/analysis times and difficulty in derivitization of certainphenols. We now demonstrate the effect of using Hypersil GOLD and1.9 µm particles on the separation and analysis speed of a number ofpriority phenols cited within the US Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) and European Union (EU) lists of priority pollutants.1, 2

Results and DiscussionA number of priority phenols can be successfully separated usingHypersil GOLD columns. Method transfer from 5 µm to 1.9 µm particlesand shorter column lengths allows significantly faster analysis times(a reduction of approximately three times in this example), whilemaintaining excellent resolution and reducing peak widths, resultingin increased peak heights and improved sensitivity.

Nandrolone AnalysisAs steroid use becomes more complex, doping control agencies need a highly sensitive, discriminatory tool to detect these drugs. Hypersil GOLD columns provide symmetrical peakshapes leading to enhanced sensitivity and separation of structurally similar steroids.
The use of anabolic and androgenic steroids by athletes help them toincrease muscle mass and improve athletic performance. Steroid use isbanned in competitive sport, and doping control laboratories regularlytest competitors at all levels, both at competitions and in trainingsessions, to ensure they are not gaining an unfair advantage over others by chemically assisting their performance.
At large sporting events, the number of samples submitted isvery large. Both the testing laboratories and sports governing bodiesare under a great deal of pressure to detect banned drugs, such asnandrolone, as quickly and efficiently as possible. Since many steroidsdo not remain in the body in an unchanged format, the testing labora-tories also need to detect analytes resulting from the degradation ofthe original parent drug, or produced by the action of the parent drugon other biological analytes. These secondary analytes are often struc-turally similar to the parent drug.
High sample throughput of structurally similar compoundsrequires a column chemistry that can easily resolve individual analytesand generate sharp, symmetrical peaks for ultimate quantificationconfidence. An important requirement of the analytical method is itssensitivity. Athletes who do not want to be caught taking perform-ance-enhancing drugs will often cease taking the drugs for a periodof time before competition to allow the drug to leave their bodies.Often, trace levels of the drug will still be present after this time.Using a column that offers enhanced resolution and sensitivity providesgreater opportunity for drug detection.

B: ACNIsocratic: 43:57Flow Rate: 1.0 mL/minDetection: UV at 254 nmTemperature: 25 °C
Results and DiscussionThe chromatogram shown in Figure 1 demonstrates the fast analysisof steroids. The run time of less than 5 minutes using isocratic conditions allows rapid sample turnaround and helps reduce overallanalysis cost. Hypersil GOLD’s ultra-pure base silica and state-of-the-art bonding generate highly symmetrical peaks, and allow structurallysimilar analytes to be positively differentiated from each other,decreasing the risk of inaccurate peak identification, and increasingpeak height, both of which improve the confidence in the method.

HPLC Analysis of FOX-7 using a Porous Graphitic Carbon ColumnThe strong retention properties of porous graphitic carbon (PGC) for very polar analytes were used to retain and analyse FOX-7 (2,2-dinitro-ethene-1,1-diamine) with HPLC.
The explosive FOX-7 is an extremely polar compound which is verydifficult to retain in conventional reversed phase conditions withoutthe addition of an ion pair reagent. When using a C18 column understandard conditions FOX-7 elutes with the solvent front.1
PGC is a material that provides strong retention of very polarcompounds. The retention mechanism involves a charge-inducedinteraction of the polar analyte with the polarizable surface of thegraphite.2 This so-called “polar retention effect on graphite” (PREG)can be controlled by the use of electronic modifiers, which competewith the polar analytes to the surface of the graphite reducing retention.3 In this application note the retention of FOX-7 is demonstratedon PGC using a mobile phase containing an electronic modifier, eitherTFA or ammonia.
Experimental Conditions
Column: Hypercarb™ 5 µm, 100 x 3 mmPart Number: 35005-103030Mobile Phase: A1: H2O + 1% TFA
A2: H2O + 1% NH3B1: ACN + 1% TFAB2: ACN/ H2O/ NH3 (96:3:1)
Gradient: Time (min) % B (B1 or B2)0 03 07 100
24 100Flow Rate: 0.8 mL/minInjection Volume: 10 µLDetection: UV at 278 or 272 nm
Results and DiscussionDue to the PREG, FOX-7 did not elute with an acceptable retentioneven when a strong organic eluent such as acetonitrile was used.When 1% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) was added to the mobile phase,as a competitive electronic modifier, the polar retention was reducedand the analyte eluted at 14 minutes with good peak shape (Figure1a). The suppression of polar interaction was also possible using abasic modifier, ammonia (NH3) in the mobile phase, in which case theretention time was 11 minutes (Figure 1b). This methodology wassuccessfully applied to the analysis of possible by-products in thesynthesis of FOX-7.1

GC/MS Analysis of Performance Enhancing Drugs in RacehorsesConventional GC/MS methods for the analysis of performance enhancing drugs in racehorses can be made faster while maintaining chromatographic integrity.
Horse racing worldwide is a multi-billion dollar industry and there canbe substantial rewards for winning. The horse racing testing laboratoriesaround the world form the defense against doping to ensure races arefair and horses are safe and healthy. As the requirement for checkingperformance enhancing drugs in race horses increases, throughputand analysis time become an important consideration in methoddevelopment.
This application note looks at method options to reduce analysistime while maintaining chromatographic parameters such as resolutionand selectivity. As an illustration, a GC/MS method for a standarddoping drugs test mixture was developed using a 0.25 mm internaldiameter (ID) TRACE TR-5MS column. This column showed good separation of nine compounds in approximately 22 minutes. Themethod was then transferred to a shorter, narrower bore column toreduce the time required for analysis.

Results and DiscussionThe time required for the separation of nine doping drugs was successfully reduced by two-thirds by decreasing the GC columnlength from 30 to 15 m, the column ID from 0.25 to 0.15 mm, and bymaking the temperature program faster. In transferring methods toachieve a faster analysis time without changing elution order, the oneparameter that must not change is the phase of the column. The chromatograms in Figure 1 demonstrate that the selectivity and resolution were unaffected by the new parameters. By optimizingthese parameters the total analysis time for this range of drugs wasreduced from 22 (Figure 1a) to approximately 7 minutes (Figure 1b).This increase in speed can have a great effect on the throughputcapability of the lab and the productivity of the instruments.
Figure 1: The analysis time of drugs in race horses is drastically reduced fromover 22 min with a 30 m column (a) to about 7 min by using a shorter 15 m TR-5MS column (b).

Analysis of Aromatic Amines Produced by Degradation of Azo DyesHypersil GOLD columns generate highly symmetrical, narrow peaks to provide the ultimate sensitivity and quantification required for the accurate analysis of closely related,highly basic analytes.
Sixty-five percent of the organic colorants in use around the world areazo dyes.1 They provide intense, bright colors that are stable andhighly cost-effective due to the simple manufacturing methods. Theirmanufacture is also environmentally friendly as it takes place in water,so there is little solvent disposal or recycling required afterwards. Themajority of azo dyes are not considered dangerous; only about 5% areconsidered potentially hazardous because, under reduction conditions,they degrade to produce aromatic amines, a small number of which areclassified as being carcinogenic or potentially carcinogenic to humans.
New legislation by the European Commission to protect publichealth proposes that an amendment to Council Directive 76/769/EEC,“Marketing and Use of Azo Colorants” be made to restrict the use ofazo dyes.2,3 In order to protect human health, those azo dyes, whichcan break down under reductive conditions to release any of a groupof defined aromatic amines, are prohibited from being used in thoseconsumer goods that are considered to have regular skin contact(such as wristwatch straps, bed linen, textiles, toys etc). The EUDirective 2002/61/EC lists 22 aromatic amines which are banned andthus need to be monitored. The detectable amount of any aromaticamine should not exceed 30ppm in the finished articles or in the dyedparts thereof. Thus, sensitive and accurate analytical methods arerequired to monitor these aromatic amines.
The challenge for the chromatographic analysis of aromaticamines is that these are basic compounds with closely related struc-tures, occurring at low levels. Older type A and B, L1 bonded-phasesilica column chemistries have been used in the past to assay highlybasic amines but have required the addition of a competitive amine inthe mobile phase to obtain symmetrical peaks. Today, the accurateHPLC quantification of these amines requires an analytical columnthat can easily replace older L1-type columns in analytical methodswithout the requirement for excessive method revalidation and onethat can distinguish between structurally similar compounds and pro-vide highly symmetrical peaks.

GC Analysis of Biodiesel Using a High Temperature CarboraneModified Siloxane Phase ColumnA TRACE TR-HT5 high temperature stable GC column has been used to monitor the productionof biodiesel B100.
The manufacture of biodiesel involves the conversion of triglycerides(usually from vegetable oils) in the presence of an alcohol, to the corresponding ester. In this conversion, ethanol produces ethyl estersand methanol produces methyl esters. Methanol is the more commonlyused alcohol and rape seed oil (canola) is the most common startingmaterial. Biodiesel made from new rapeseed oil is referred to as RME(Rapeseed Methyl Esters), and that made from used cooking oil ofuncertain origin, is referred to as FAME (Fatty Acid Methyl Ester)biodiesel. After the reaction is complete, glycerol, a reaction by-product,and methanol (or ethanol) are removed as they adversely affect performance. The objective of the reaction is complete transesterifi-cation of the oil resulting in a fuel with a low viscosity, low flashpoint, low boiling point and with low concentrations of triglycerides.When used as a direct replacement for diesel, the fuel is referred toas biodiesel B100.
This application note demonstrates how a high temperature stable TRACE TR-HT5 column (5% phenylpolycarborane-siloxane) and the TRACE GC Ultra were used to monitor the conversion oftriglycerides to FAMEs for a production run of B100.1
Experimental Conditions
SamplesSamples of B100 (from recycled vegetable oil) were obtained directlyfrom the manufacturer and derivatized according to ASTM methodD6584.2 References and internal standards are as specified in ASTMMethod D6584.2

Results and DiscussionThe chromatograms obtained for the recycled vegetable oil startingmaterial and the biodiesel B100 final product, after removal of theglycerol and methanol, are shown in the Figure 1. The triglyceridesappear to be fully converted to esters by the end of the transesterifi-cation reaction. The biodiesel met the specification set is EN14214for both triglycerol and free glycerol.3

Characterization of High Boiling Components in Petroleum Productsusing Hypersil GOLD and LC/MSA fast and robust characterization of non- and semi-volatile components found in petroleumproducts is achieved, using a Hypersil GOLD 1.9 μm column and LC-MS.
The characterization of petroleum products is usually carried outusing GC and GC/MS due to the high volatility of a number of thecomponents. However, a significant portion of these products are highboiling or non/semi volatile and are difficult to analyze using GC/MSdue to volatilization or molecular weight limitations. LC/MS does notsuffer from such problems. Traditionally, however, such separationshave been marred by lengthy analysis times and hydrocarbon contam-ination of the MS interface. Now, using Hypersil GOLD 1.9 µm particlecolumns, together with a patented ‘cone wash’ integrated into theSurveyor MSQ Plus ESI source, a fast, uninterrupted and robust analysis is possible.

Acrylamide in Cooked FoodThe excellent retention, peak shape and reproducibility of Hypercarb columnsallows accurate measurement of acrylamide in a wide variety of foods.
In April 2002, a research group at the Swedish National FoodAdministration published a paper in The Analyst demonstrating thepresence of acrylamide at elevated levels in cooked food.1 Acrylamideis a suspected carcinogen and although no link has been provenbetween acrylamide and cancer in humans, the World HealthOrganization has described its presence in food as “a major concern”.
Acrylamide is formed naturally in foods with high starch contentduring cooking, with elevated concentrations of acrylamide detectedin french fries, potato chips, breads and processed cereals, particularlyafter cooking using a microwave. Consequently, several food agenciesand proficiency testing schemes are recommending more research todetermine ways to minimize its concentration in food. These findingsattracted worldwide attention, increasing demand for fast, sensitiveanalytical methods.
Traditional methods of analysis for acrylamide involve samplederivatization followed by gas chromatography. This application notereports a simple and accurate method for the analysis of acrylamidein cooked food using the polar retention capacity of Hypercarbcolumns for a faster LC/MS technique.
Acrylamide has a high degree of polarity and shows limited capacity to interact with silica-based hydrophobic (C18) bonded phases.Such silica based columns show poor quantitation at the picogramlevel, as acrylamide elutes with the column void volume and is difficult to distinguish from other polar sample constituents.
Hypercarb (100% porous graphitic carbon) has a polarizable surfacethat is able to form charge induced dipole interactions with polar molecules which have a permanent dipole. This dipole-dipole interactionresults in strong retention of polar analytes, which are not retainedon silica-based phases. This capability to create charge induced interactions gives Hypercarb far greater retention for polar compoundsthan silica-based phases.

Results and DiscussionThis method gives a retention time of 1.8 minutes for acrylamide with k' = 3.6, which gives adequate retention beyond the column voidvolume for accurate quantification (Figure 1a). This is highlighted bythe linearity of response for the method over a concentration range 1 to 1000 ng/mL, as shown in Figure 1b.

Analysis of Water-Soluble Vitamins on a Polar Endcapped C18Stationary PhaseWater-soluble vitamins are retained and resolved using a Hypersil GOLD aQ column andmobile phase conditions which are ideal for sensitive detection using positive ESI.
Vitamins are a group of chemically unrelated compounds which occur in small amounts in biological materials. Because of their nutritional importance, it is necessary to have sensitive and robustanalytical methods to determine vitamins in food materials anddietary supplements.
HPLC is commonly used for the determination of vitamins, butthe analysis of water-soluble vitamins by reversed phase HPLC(RP–LC) can be challenging since these compounds have very differ-ent chemical structures and therefore exhibit different retentionbehaviors. The smaller, more polar vitamins such as thiamine showlittle retention in RP–LC, whereas the more hydrophobic vitaminssuch as riboflavin are well retained. Gradient conditions are neces-sary to elute all analytes within a reasonable analysis time.Moreover, polar vitamins are difficult to retain on typical reversedphase columns unless high concentrations of non-volatile buffers oreven ion pairing reagents are used. These mobile phase conditionsare not amenable to high sensitivity LC/MS methods.
The use of a polar endcapped C18 phase has the advantage ofretaining the polar water-soluble vitamins sufficiently to allow foraccurate quantification, even when acidic, volatile mobile phase addi-tives are used. The polar functional group used to endcap HypersilGOLD aQ media provides an interaction mechanism in addition to thedispersive interaction with the alkyl chain, by which polar compoundscan be retained and resolved. Additionally, because this phase is builtupon the technology of Hypersil GOLD™ silica, symmetrical and efficientpeaks are obtained even with weakly buffered mobile phases.
Experimental Conditions
Column: Hypersil GOLD aQ™, 5 µm, 150 x 4.6 mmPart Number: 25305-154630Mobile Phase: A: H2O + 0.1% Formic acid
B: ACN + 0.1% Formic acidGradient: 4% B for 3 min then to 100% B by 12 minFlow Rate: 1.0 mL/minDetection: UV at 266 nmTemperature: 25 °C
Results and DiscussionThe six water-soluble vitamins are retained and separated on aHypersil GOLD aQ column using a gradient of water and acetonitrilewith 0.1% formic acid, conditions which promote good ionization forsensitive detection in positive electrospray. Analysis is completed inless than 8 minutes and the peak shape is very symmetrical for allanalytes. Transfer of this method to LC/MS will only require reductionof the column internal diameter to 2.1 mm and reduction of flow rateto 0.2 mL/min.
Figure 1: The analysis of water-soluble vitamins on a polar endcapped C18phase illustrates the enhanced retention of polar compounds using HypersilGOLD aQ columns.

Selectivity Screening in the HPLC Analysis of CatechinsThe selectivity changes that can be obtained with alkyl chain, cyano and perfluorinatedchemistries when using generic mobile phases are illustrated for a mixture of catechins. Thisapproach for stationary phase screening can significantly reduce method development time.
In traditional Chinese medicine, green tea has been used as an astrin-gent, cardiotonic, central nervous stimulant and a diuretic. Most ofthe healthful properties of green tea are attributed to the catechins,which are polyphenols with a flavonoid structure. The selectivity ofthree column chemistries for the high performance liquid chromatog-raphy (HPLC) separation of a mixture of catechins was evaluated.
Following the success of the Hypersil GOLD stationary phase forproviding extremely symmetrical peaks, even for very basic analytes,additional chemistries have been developed using the same highlypure silica support and robust bonding process. These include cyanoand perfluorinated chemistries. Hypersil GOLD CN offers a cyanochemistry with alternative selectivity for reversed phase and can alsobe used for normal phase separations. Hypersil GOLD PFP has apentafluorophenyl ligand that provides extra selectivity for halogenatedcompounds. It also performs well for molecules which contain severalnitro, hydroxyl, carboxyl or other polar groups and that may not bewell retained or resolved on alkyl chain phases. The introduction of afluorine group in the stationary phase causes significant changes inthe solute-stationary phase interactions. The carbon-fluorine bond ismore polar than the carbon-hydrogen bond, which explains the extraselectivity and retention observed for compounds containing halogensand polar functional groups.

Results and DiscussionThe series of chromatograms shows the effect of changing the columnchemistry on the separation of catechins when a generic mobilephase is used. The Hypersil GOLD PFP produces a change in elutionorder of analytes 2 and 3, compared with the alkyl chain phase. Theextra retention of epigallocatechin gallate over epicatechin is thoughtto be caused by the additional substituted ring, which interacts withthe phenyl ring on the perfluorinated stationary phase.
Similarly, these analytes also switch elution order on theHypersil GOLD CN column. This column also shows another reversalof elution order between gallocatechin gallate and epicatechin gallate.This is likely to be caused by the additional hydroxy group in gallocat-
echin gallate. Screening different column chemistries with a genericmobile phase can significantly reduce method development time inreverse phase HPLC.
