A Retention-Matching Strategy for Method Transfer in Supercritical Fluid Chromatography: Introducing the Isomolar Plot Approach.

ABSTRACT: A strategy to match any retention shifts due to increased or decreased pressure drop during supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) method transfer is presented. The strategy relies on adjusting the co-solvent molarity without the need to adjust the back-pressure regulator. Exact matching can be obtained with minimal changes in separation selectivity. To accomplish this, we introduce the isomolar plot approach, which shows the variation in molar co-solvent concentration depending on the mass fraction of co-solvent, pressure, and temperature, here exemplified by CO₂-methanol. This plot allowed us to unify the effects of the co-solvent mass fraction and density on retention in SFC. The approach, which was verified on 12 known empirical retention models for each enantiomer of six basic pharmaceuticals, allowed us to numerically calculate the apparent retention factor for any column pressure drop. The strategy can be implemented either using a mechanistic approach if retention models are known or empirically by iteratively adjusting the co-solvent mass fraction. As a rule of thumb for the empirical approach, we found that the relative mass fraction adjustment needed is proportional to the relative change in the retention factor caused by a change in the pressure drop. Different proportionality constants were required to match retention in the case of increasing or decreasing pressure drops.

Widely-targeted quantitative lipidomics method by supercritical fluid chromatography triple quadrupole mass spectrometry.

Project description:Lipidomics, the mass spectrometry-based comprehensive analysis of lipids, has attracted attention as an analytical approach to provide novel insight into lipid metabolism and to search for biomarkers. However, an ideal method for both comprehensive and quantitative analysis of lipids has not been fully developed. Here, we have proposed a practical methodology for widely targeted quantitative lipidome analysis using supercritical fluid chromatography fast-scanning triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry (SFC/QqQMS) and theoretically calculated a comprehensive lipid multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) library. Lipid classes can be separated by SFC with a normal-phase diethylamine-bonded silica column with high resolution, high throughput, and good repeatability. Structural isomers of phospholipids can be monitored by mass spectrometric separation with fatty acyl-based MRM transitions. SFC/QqQMS analysis with an internal standard-dilution method offers quantitative information for both lipid class and individual lipid molecular species in the same lipid class. Additionally, data acquired using this method has advantages, including reduction of misidentification and acceleration of data analysis. Using the SFC/QqQMS system, alteration of plasma lipid levels in myocardial infarction-prone rabbits to the supplementation of EPA was first observed. Our developed SFC/QqQMS method represents a potentially useful tool for in-depth studies focused on complex lipid metabolism and biomarker discovery.-Takeda, H., Y. Izumi, M. Takahashi, T. Paxton, S.

Supercritical Fluid Extraction and Chromatography of Lipids in Bilberry.

Project description:A supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) method has been developed for the extraction of lipids in bilberry. Experimental design was used to optimize pressure, temperature and extraction time using CO2 as solvent. Best SFE condition for total lipids was 450 bar, 60 °C and 45 min. The SFE method was compared to conventional Bligh & Dyer (B&D) extraction. The amount of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) was found to be 4.84 ± 0.06 mg and 4.564 ± 0.003 mg per g of the freeze-dried bilberry sample for the developed SFE and B&D methods, respectively, while the amount of total lipids was found to be 54.40 ± 6.06 mg and 65.70 ± 0.67 mg per g of sample for SFE and B&D, respectively. This discrepancy between FAME and total lipids could be explained by the presence of wax esters, sterol esters, carotenoids and phospholipids, as determined by supercritical fluid chromatography.

Preparative supercritical fluid chromatography for lipid class fractionation-a novel strategy in high-resolution mass spectrometry based lipidomics.

Project description:In this work, a lipidomics workflow based on offline semi-preparative lipid class-specific fractionation by supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) followed by high-resolution mass spectrometry was introduced. The powerful SFC approach offered separation of a wide polarity range for lipids, enabled enrichment (up to 3 orders of magnitude) of lipids, selective fractionation of 14 lipid classes/subclasses, and increased dynamic range enabling in-depth characterization. A significantly increased coverage of low abundant lipids improving lipid identification by numbers and degree (species and molecular level) was obtained in Pichia pastoris when comparing high-resolution mass spectrometry based lipidomics with and without prior fractionation. Proof-of-principle experiments using a standard reference material (SRM 1950, NIST) for human plasma showed that the proposed strategy enabled quantitative lipidomics. Indeed, for 70 lipids, the consensus values available for this sample could be met. Thus, the novel workflow is ideally suited for lipid class-specific purification/isolation from milligram amounts of sample while not compromising on omics type of analysis (identification and quantification). Finally, compared with established fractionation/pre-concentration approaches, semi-preparative SFC is superior in terms of versatility, as it involved only volatile modifiers and salt additives facilitating any follow-up use such as qualitative or quantitate analysis or further purification down to the single lipid species level.

Impact of Methanol Adsorption on the Robustness of Analytical Supercritical Fluid Chromatography in Transfer from SFC to UHPSFC.

Project description:In supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), the retention of a solute depends on the temperature, density, pressure, and cosolvent fraction. Here, we investigate how the adsorption of the cosolvent MeOH changes with pressure and temperature and how this affects the retention of several solutes. The lower the pressure, the stronger the MeOH adsorption to the stationary phase; in addition, at low pressure, perturbing the pressure results in significant changes in the amounts of MeOH adsorbed to the stationary phase. The robustness of the solute retention was lowest when operating the systems at low pressures, high temperatures, and low cosolvent fractions in the eluent. Here, we found a clear relationship between the sensitivity of MeOH adsorption to the stationary phase and the robustness of the separation system. Finally, we show that going from classical SFC to ultrahigh-performance SFC (UHPSFC), that is, separations conducted with much smaller packing diameters, results in retention factors that are more sensitive to fluctuations in the flow rate than with traditional SFC. The calculated density profiles indicate only a slight density drop over the traditional SFC column (3%, visualized as lighter → darker blue in the TOC), whereas the drop for the UHPSFC one was considerably larger (20%, visualized as dark red → light green in the TOC). The corresponding temperature drops were calculated to be 0.8 and 6.5 °C for the SFC and UHPSFC systems, respectively. These increased density and temperature drops are the underlying reasons for the decreased robustness of UHPSFC.

Evaluation of an amide-based stationary phase for supercritical fluid chromatography.

Project description:A relatively new stationary phase containing a polar group embedded in a hydrophobic backbone (i.e., ACE®C18-amide) was evaluated for use in supercritical fluid chromatography. The amide-based column was compared with columns packed with bare silica, C18 silica, and a terminal-amide silica phase. The system was held at supercritical pressure and temperature with a mobile phase composition of CO2 and methanol as cosolvent. The linear solvation energy relationship model was used to evaluate the behavior of these stationary phases, relating the retention factor of selected probes to specific chromatographic interactions. A five-component test mixture, consisting of a group of drug-like molecules was separated isocratically. The results show that the C18 -amide stationary phase provided a combination of interactions contributing to the retention of the probe compounds. The hydrophobic interactions are favorable; however, the electron donating ability of the embedded amide group shows a large positive interaction. Under the chromatographic conditions used, the C18 -amide column was able to provide baseline resolution of all the drug-like probe compounds in a text mixture, while the other columns tested did not.

Separation of Isomeric Forms of Urolithin Glucuronides Using Supercritical Fluid Chromatography.

Project description:Urolithins are gut microbiota metabolites produced in humans after consuming foods containing ellagitannins and ellagic acid. Three urolithin metabotypes have been reported for different individuals depending on the final urolithins produced. After absorption, they are conjugated with glucuronic acid (phase II metabolism), and these are the main circulating metabolites in plasma and reach different tissues. Different regioisomeric isomers of urolithin glucuronides have been described. Still, their identification and quantification in humans have not been properly reported due to resolution limitations in their analysis by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. In the present study, we report a novel method for separating these isomers using supercritical fluid chromatography. With this method, urolithin A 3- and 8-glucuronide, isourolithin A 3- and 9- glucuronide, and urolithin B 3-glucuronide (8-hydroxy urolithin 3-glucuronide; 3-hydroxy urolithin 8-glucuronide; 3-hydroxyurolithin 9-glucuronide; 9-hydroxyurolithin 3-glucuronide; and urolithin 3-glucuronide) were separated in less than 15 min. The proposed method was applied to successfully analyze these metabolites in urine samples from different volunteers belonging to different metabotypes.

Quantitative determination of major alkaloids in Cinchona bark by Supercritical Fluid Chromatography.

Project description:Chinoline alkaloids found in Cinchona bark still play an important role in medicine, for example as antimalarial and antiarrhythmic drugs. For the first time Supercritical Fluid Chromatography has been utilized for their separation. Six respective derivatives (dihydroquinidine, dihydroquinine, quinidine, quinine, cinchonine and cinchonidine) could be resolved in less than 7?min, and three of them quantified in crude plant extracts. The optimum stationary phase showed to be an Acquity UPC2 Torus DEA 1.7??m column, the mobile phase comprised of CO2, acetonitrile, methanol and diethylamine. Method validation confirmed that the procedure is selective, accurate (recovery rates from 97.2% to 103.7%), precise (intra-day ?2.2%, inter-day ?3.0%) and linear (R2???0.999); at 275?nm the observed detection limits were always below 2.5??g/ml. In all of the samples analyzed cinchonine dominated (1.87%-2.30%), followed by quinine and cinchonidine. Their total content ranged from 4.75% to 5.20%. These values are in good agreement with published data, so that due to unmatched speed and environmental friendly character SFC is definitely an excellent alternative for the analysis of these important natural products.

Signal enhancement in supercritical fluid chromatography-diode-array detection with multiple injection.

Project description:To circumvent the detrimental effects of large-volume injection with fixed-loop injector in modern supercritical fluid chromatography, the feasibility of performing multiple injection was investigated. By accumulating analytes from a certain number of continual small-volume injections, compounds can be concentrated on the column head, and this leads to signal enhancement compared with a single injection. The signal to noise enhancement of different compounds appeared to be associated with their retention on different stationary phases and with type of sample diluent. The diethylamine column gave the best signal to noise enhancement when acetonitrile was used as sample diluent and the 2-picolylamine column showed the best overall performance with water as the sample diluent. The advantage of multiple injection over one-time large-volume injection was proven with sulfanilamide, with both acetonitrile and water as sample diluents. The multiple injection approach exhibited comparable within- and between-day precision of retention time and peak area with those of single injections. The potential of the multiple injection approach was demonstrated in the analysis of sulfanilamide-spiked honey extract and diclofenac-spiked ground water sample. The limitations of this approach were also discussed.

Fast and Ultrasensitive Glycoform Analysis by Supercritical Fluid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:The glycoform of a therapeutic monoclonal antibody (mAb) has a significant impact on its effector function as well as its safety and pharmacokinetics. Glycoform heterogeneity is influenced by various factors, including the producing cells and cell culture processes. Therefore, accurate glycoform characterization is essential for drug design, process optimization, manufacturing, and quality control of therapeutic mAbs. In this study, we developed a fast, quantitative, and highly sensitive analytical platform for glycan profiling by supercritical fluid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (SFC-MS/MS) and applied the technique to the glycan structural analysis of mAbs. To achieve both the highest sensitivity and the most comprehensive glycan profiling, we integrated our energy-resolved oxonium ion monitoring (Erexim) method with SFC-MS to construct a new SFC-Erexim technology. An 8 min analysis of bevacizumab, nivolumab, ramucirumab, rituximab, and trastuzumab by SFC-Erexim detected a total of 102 glycoforms, with a detection limit of 5 attomoles. The dynamic range of glycan abundance was over 6 orders of magnitude for bevacizumab analysis by SFC-Erexim compared to 3 orders of magnitude for conventional fluorescence HPLC analysis. This method revealed the glycan profile characteristics and lot-to-lot heterogeneity of various therapeutic mAbs. We were also able to detect a series of structural variations in pharmacologically important glycan structures. The SFC-MS-based glycoform profiling method will provide an ideal platform for the in-depth analysis of precise glycan structure and abundance.

Hyphenation of Supercritical Fluid Chromatography and NMR with In-Line Sample Concentration.

Project description:By coupling supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in-line, a powerful analytical method arises that enables chemically specific analysis of a broad range of complex mixtures. However, during chromatography, the compounds are diluted in the mobile phase, in this case supercritical CO2 (scCO2), often resulting in concentrations that are too low to be detected by NMR spectroscopy or at least requiring excessive signal averaging. We present a hyphenated SFC-NMR setup with an integrated approach for concentrating samples in-line, which are diluted in scCO2 during chromatography. This in-line concentration is achieved by controlled in-line expansion of the scCO2. As a proof of concept four isomers of vitamin E (tocopherol) were isolated by SFC, concentrated in-line by expanding CO2 from 120 to 50 bar, and finally shuttled to the NMR spectrometer fitted with a dedicated probehead for spectroscopic characterization of microfluidic samples. The abundant isomers were readily detected, supporting the viability of SFC-NMR as a powerful analytical tool.
