At-Line Reversed Phase Liquid Chromatography for In-Process Monitoring of Inclusion Body Solubilization.

ABSTRACT: Refolding is known as the bottleneck in inclusion body (IB) downstream processing in the pharmaceutical industry: high dilutions leading to large operating volumes, slow refolding kinetics and low refolding yields are only a few of the problems that impede industrial application. Solubilization prior to refolding is often carried out empirically and the effects of the solubilizate on the subsequent refolding step are rarely investigated. The results obtained in this study, however, indicate that the quality of the IB solubilizate has a severe effect on subsequent refolding. As the solubilizate contains chaotropic reagents in high molarities, it is commonly analyzed with sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). SDS-PAGE, however, suffers from a long analysis time, making at-line analytical implementation difficult. In this study, we established an at-line reversed phase liquid chromatography method to investigate the time-dependent quality of the solubilizate. To verify the necessity of at-line solubilization monitoring, we varied the essential solubilization conditions for horseradish peroxidase IBs. The solubilization time was found to have a major influence on subsequent refolding, underlining the high need for an at-line analysis of solubilization. Furthermore, we used the developed reversed phase liquid chromatography method for an in-process control (IPC). In conclusion, the presented reversed phase liquid chromatography method allows a proper control of IB solubilization applicable for tailored refolding.

Off-line mixed-mode liquid chromatography coupled with reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry to improve coverage in lipidomics analysis.

Project description:The confident identification and in-depth profiling of molecular lipid species remain to be a challenge in lipidomics analysis. In this work, an off-line two-dimensional mixed-mode and reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) method combined with high-field quadrupole orbitrap mass spectrometer (Q Exactive HF) was developed to profile lipids from complex biological samples. In the first dimension, 22 different lipid classes were separated on a monolithic silica column with elution order from neutral to polar lipids. A total of 13 fractions were collected and run on a RPLC C30 column in the second dimension for further separation of the lipid molecular species based on their hydrophobicity, with the elution order being determined by both the length and degree of unsaturation in the fatty-acyl chain. The method was applied to analyze lipids extracted from rat plasma and rat liver. Fatty acid methyl ester analysis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to identify the fatty acyls from total lipid extracts, which provided a more confident identification of the lipid species present in these samples. More than 800 lipids were identified in each sample and their molecular structures were confidentially confirmed using tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). The number of lipid molecular species identified in both rat plasma and rat liver by this off-line two-dimensional method is approximately twice of that by one-dimensional RPLC-MS/MS employing a C30 column. This off-line two-dimensional mixed-mode LC-RPLC-MS/MS method is a promising technique for comprehensive lipid profiling in complex biological matrices.

Platelet-Activating Factor Quantification Using Reversed Phase Liquid Chromatography and Selected Reaction Monitoring in Negative Ion Mode.

Project description:Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is a potent biologically active phospholipid that mediates human physiological and pathophysiologic responses. PAF levels increase transiently and are typically assessed by techniques with limitations related to expense, sensitivity, pre-analysis derivatization and interference with isobaric molecules. This study elucidates a facile, accurate liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analytical method for PAF. In negative ion mode using electrospray ionization, collisionally-activated dissociation analysis showed a unique product ion for acetate adducts of PAF molecular species representing the loss of methyl acetate from the polar head group and loss of a part of the acetate group from the sn-2 position. This product ion was exploited for selected reaction monitoring of PAF molecular species following separation by reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Standard calibration responses were determined, and this method was able to detect as low as 100 fmol of PAF. Finally, PAF molecular species were quantified in human neutrophils and monocytes.

Reversed-phase liquid chromatography coupled on-line to estrogen receptor bioaffinity detection based on fluorescence polarization.

Project description:We describe the development and validation of a high-resolution screening (HRS) platform which couples gradient reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) on-line to estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) affinity detection using fluorescence polarization (FP). FP, which allows detection at high wavelengths, limits the occurrence of interference from the autofluorescence of test compounds in the bioassay. A fluorescein-labeled estradiol derivative (E2-F) was synthesized and a binding assay was optimized in platereader format. After subsequent optimization in flow-injection analysis (FIA) mode, the optimized parameters were translated to the on-line HRS bioassay. Proof of principle was demonstrated by separating a mixture of five compounds known to be estrogenic (17beta-estradiol, 17alpha-ethinylestradiol and the phytoestrogens coumestrol, coumarol and zearalenone), followed by post-column bioaffinity screening of the individual affinities for ERalpha. Using the HRS-based FP setup, we were able to screen affinities of off-line-generated metabolites of zearalenone for ERalpha. It is concluded that the on-line FP-based bioassay can be used to screen for the affinity of compounds without the disturbing occurrence of autofluorescence.

Quantification of residual AEBSF-related impurities by reversed-phase liquid chromatography.

Project description:During research of a broadly neutralizing antibody (bNAb) for HIV-1 infection, site-specific clipping was observed during cell culture incubation. Protease inhibitor, 4-(2-aminoethyl) benzenesulfonyl fluoride (AEBSF), was supplemented to the cell culture feeding to mitigate clipping as one of the control strategies. It led to the need and development of a new assay to monitor the free AEBSF-related impurities during the purification process. In this work, a reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC-UV) method was developed to measure the total concentration of AEBSF and its major degradant product, 4-(aminoethyl) benzenesulfonic acid (AEBS-OH). This quantitative approach involved hydrolysis pre-treatment to drive all AEBSF to AEBS-OH, a filtration step to remove large molecules, followed by RPLC-UV analysis. The method was qualified and shown to be capable of measuring AEBS-OH down to 0.5 μM with good accuracy and precision, which was then applied for process clearance studies. The results demonstrated that a Protein A purification step in conjunction with a mock ultrafiltration/diafiltration (UF/DF) step could remove AEBSF-related impurities below the detection level. Overall, this study is the first to provide a unique approach for monitoring the clearance of free AEBSF and its related degradant, AEBS-OH, in support of the bNAb research.

Thermodynamic Insights into the Separation of Carotenoids in Reversed-Phase Liquid Chromatography.

Project description:The retention mechanism of four major carotenoids, two xanthophylls (i.e., lutein and zeaxanthin) and two carotenes (i.e., lycopene and ?-carotene), was investigated in reversed-phase liquid chromatography with the aim of thermodynamic analysis. The experimental variables considered in this study were the composition of mobile phase (MP) and the temperature. Chromatographic elutions were undertaken under linear, isocratic conditions by using a C18 stationary phase, four different MP compositions (by varying the ratio methanol/acetonitrile from 66.5/28.5 to 47.5/47.5 v/v), and column temperatures in the range 283-313 K. Traditional Van't Hoff analysis has been used to estimate changes of standard enthalpy (?H°) and Gibbs free energy (?G°) associated with the solute transfer from the mobile to the stationary phase at each mobile phase composition. The thermodynamic quantities have been correlated to the structure of investigated carotenoids and their interaction with the octadecyl silica stationary phase.

Nanoparticle Formulation Composition Analysis by Liquid Chromatography on Reversed-Phase Monolithic Silica.

Project description:Multifunctional nanoparticle (NP) formulations for medical purposes have already found their way toward envisaged translation. A persistent challenge of those systems is, next to NP size analysis, the compositional analysis of the NPs with the polymer as the matrix component and the encapsulated drug, particularly in a quantitative manner. Herein, we report the formulation of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) NPs by nanoprecipitation and the analysis of their integrity and size by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Those NPs feature a variety of encapsulated drugs including the well-known ibuprofen (Ibu) as well as dexamethasone (Dex) and dexamethasone acetate (DexAce), with the latter being of potential interest for clinical treatment of SARS-CoV-2 patients. All those dissolved formulation compositions have been subjected to liquid chromatography on reversed-phase silica monolithic columns, allowing to quantitatively assess amounts of small molecule drug and NP constituting PLGA polymer in a single run. The chromatographically resolved hydrophobicity differences of the drugs correlated with their formulation loading and were clearly separated from the PLGA matrix polymer with high resolution. Our study identifies the viability of reversed-phase monolithic silica in the chromatography of both small drug molecules and particularly pharmapolymers in a repeatable and simultaneous fashion, and can provide a valuable strategy for analysis of diverse precursor polymer systems and drug components in multifunctional drug formulations.

Optimized nonlinear gradients for reversed-phase liquid chromatography in shotgun proteomics.

Project description:Reversed-phase liquid chromatography has become the preferred method for separating peptides in most of the mass spectrometry-based proteomics workflows of today. In the way the technique is typically applied, the peptides are released from the chromatography column by the gradual addition of an organic buffer according to a linear function. However, when applied to complex peptide mixtures, this approach leads to unequal spreads of the peptides over the chromatography time. To address this, we investigated the use of nonlinear gradients, customized for each setup at hand. We developed an algorithm to generate optimized gradient functions for shotgun proteomics experiments and evaluated it for two data sets consisting each of four replicate runs of a human complex sample. Our results show that the optimized gradients produce a more even spread of the peptides over the chromatography run, while leading to increased numbers of confident peptide identifications. In addition, the list of peptides identified using nonlinear gradients differed considerably from those found with the linear ones, suggesting that such gradients can be a valuable tool for increasing the proteome coverage of mass spectrometry-based experiments.

Retention behavior of isomeric polycyclic aromatic sulfur heterocycles in reversed-phase liquid chromatography.

Project description:Retention indices for 70 polycyclic aromatic sulfur heterocycles (PASHs) were determined using reversed-phase liquid chromatography (LC) on a monomeric and a polymeric C18 stationary phase. Molecular shape parameters [length, breadth, thickness (T), and length-to-breadth ratio (L/B)] were calculated for all the compounds studied. Correlations between the retention on the polymeric C18 phase and PASH geometry (L/B and T) were investigated for six specific PASH isomer groups with molecular mass (MM) 184Da, 234Da, 258Da, 284Da, 334Da, and 384Da. Similar to previous studies for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), PASH elution order on the polymeric C18 phase was generally found to follow increasing L/B values. Correlation coefficients for retention vs L/B ranged from r=0.45 (MM 184Da) to r=0.89 (MM 284Da). In the case of smaller PASHs (MM?258Da), the location of the sulfur atom in the bay-region of the structure resulted in later than expected elution of these isomers based on L/B. In the case of the larger PASHs (MM?284Da), nonplanarity had a significant influence on earlier than predicted elution based on L/B values.

The ionic liquid isopropylammonium formate as a mobile phase modifier to improve protein stability during reversed phase liquid chromatography.

Project description:The room temperature ionic liquid isopropylammonium formate (IPAF) is studied as a reversed phase HPLC mobile phase modifier for separation of native proteins using a polymeric column and the protein stability is compared to that using acetonitrile (MeCN) as the standard organic mobile phase modifier. A variety of important proteins with different numbers of subunits are investigated, including non-subunit proteins: albumin, and amyloglucosidase (AMY); a two subunit protein: thyroglobulin (THY); and four subunit proteins: glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). A significant enhancement in protein stability is observed in the chromatograms upon using IPAF as a mobile phase modifier. The first sharper peak at about 2min represented protein in primarily the native form and a second broader peak more retained at about 5-6min represented substantially denatured or possibly aggregated protein. The investigated proteins (except LDH) could maintain the native form within up to 50% IPAF, while a mobile phase, with as low as 10% MeCN, induced protein denaturation. The assay for pyruvate using LDH has further shown that enzymatic activity can be maintained up to 30% IPAF in water in contrast to no activity using 30% MeCN.
