We were able to detect sulfathiazole in the brood nest honey, but not in the surplus honey (honey stored above the brood nest and available for harvest). The limit of sensitivity was 0.2 ppm. In 1983, Barry and MacEachern (20), using reverse phase HPLC, reported that of nineteen commercial honeys collected by Agriculture Canada inspectors, 8 samples contained sulfathiazole residue at levels ranging from 0.10 to 0.56 ppm. 

Normal phase (NP) was the original mode of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) reported. This uses a polar stationary phase (e.g. sihca, alumina) and non-polar mobile phase. It can also be referred to as adsorption... 

Most cases of isocratic HPLC reported were carried out on reversed-phase chromatography on silica-based ODS (C,8 bonded phase) columns (1) for citrus juices. For mobile phases utilizing C,8 columns, isocratic solvents of 80-82% aqueous acetic acid with acetonitrile were commonly used. A ternary mobile-phase system of water-acetonitrile-glacial acetic acid... 

Saima et al. (2013) reported another Fl-spectrophotometric method for vitamins A and E analysis in pharmaceuticals, infant milk, and blood serum samples using a fer-rozine-Fe(II) detection system. In the presence of vitamin A/E, iron(III) was reduced to iron(II), then the in situ iron(II) reacted with ferrozine to produce a magenta-colored complex with an absorption wavelength of 562 nm. The limits of detection (3s) were 0.06 and 0.03 pg/mL with relative standard deviations (n = 4) in the range of 0.8%-2.8%, respectively. The method was validated by comparing with HPLC reported method (Driskell et al., 1982) and the results have shown that there was no significant difference between the two methods at 95% confidence level. 

Phosphate Esters. The phosphorylation of sucrose using sodium metaphosphate has been reported (78). Lyoptulization of a sodium metaphosphate solution of sucrose at pH 5 for 20 hours followed by storage at 80°C for five days produced a mixture of sucrose monophosphates. These products were isolated by preparative hplc, with a calculated yield of 27% based on all organic phosphate as sucrose monoesters. Small proportions of glucose and fmctose were also formed. 

The analysis of mefloquine in blood, using packed-column sfc, a mobile phase consisting of / -pentane modified with 1% methanol and 0.15% -butylamine, and electron capture detection has been reported (92). The method compares favorably to a previously pubflshed hplc-based procedure having a detection limit of 7.5 ng/mLin 0.1 mL blood sample. 

Simultaneous quantification of the herbicides atra2ine, sima2ine, terbut5la2ine, propa2ine, and prometryne and their principal metabohtes has been reported in natural waters at 3—1500 ng/L concentration (104). The compounds were enriched on graphiti2ed carbon black and analy2ed with hplc and a diode array uv detector. 

Chromatographic methods, notably hplc, are available for the simultaneous deterrnination of ascorbic acid as weU as dehydroascorbic acid. Some of these methods result in the separation of ascorbic acid from its isomers, eg, erythorbic acid and oxidation products such as diketogulonic acid. Detection has been by fluorescence, uv absorption, or electrochemical methods (83—85). Polarographic methods have been used because of their accuracy and their ease of operation. Ion exclusion (86) and ion suppression (87) chromatography methods have recently been reported. Other methods for ascorbic acid deterrnination include enzymatic, spectroscopic, paper, thin layer, and gas chromatographic methods. ExceUent reviews of these methods have been pubHshed (73,88,89). 

For more specific analysis, chromatographic methods have been developed. Using reverse-phase columns and uv detection, hplc methods have been appHed to the analysis of nicotinic acid and nicotinamide in biological fluids such as blood and urine and in foods such as coffee and meat. Derivatization techniques have also been employed to improve sensitivity (55). For example, the reaction of nicotinic amide with DCCI (AT-dicyclohexyl-0-methoxycoumarin-4-yl)methyl isourea to yield the fluorescent coumarin ester has been reported (56). After separation on a reversed-phase column, detection limits of 10 pmol for nicotinic acid have been reported (57). 

Various aspects of the chromatography of vitamin B 2 and related corrinoids have been reviewed (59). A high performance Hquid chromatographic (hplc) method is reported to require a sample containing 20—100 p.g cyanocobalamin and is suitable for premixes, raw material, and pharmaceutical products (60). 

Numerous high pressure Hquid chromatographic techniques have been reported for specific sample forms vegetable oHs (55,56), animal feeds (57,58), seta (59,60), plasma (61,62), foods (63,64), and tissues (63). Some of the methods requite a saponification step to remove fats, to release tocopherols from ceHs, and/or to free tocopherols from their esters. AH requite an extraction step to remove the tocopherols from the sample matrix. The methods include both normal and reverse-phase hplc with either uv absorbance or fluorescence detection. AppHcation of supercritical fluid (qv) chromatography has been reported for analysis of tocopherols in marine oHs (65). 

The successful separation of xanthate-related compounds by high performance Hquid chromatography (hplc) methods has been reported (91—93). The thin-layer chromatography procedure has been used to determine the nature of the alcohols in a xanthate mixture. A short mn of 3 cm at a development time of 25 min gives a complete separation of C —alkanol xanthates (94). 

Avilamycins. At least 16 avilamycins have been reported (14,15,29) and are Hsted in Table 2. Avilamycins A (mp 181—182) and C (mp 188—189) are the primary components (14) produced by the strain Streptomjces viridochromogenes. Stmctures have been estabhshed based on chemical degradation, nmr, and x-ray analysis. Stmctures for the rest of the compounds have been assigned based on nmr and fab ms (14) interpretations. Avilamycins F and H have only one chlorine atom in the phenoHc ring. Relative hplc retention times for all the avilamycins have been recorded (14). 

Cyclodextrin stationary phases utilize cyclodextrins bound to a soHd support in such a way that the cyclodextrin is free to interact with solutes in solution. These bonded phases consist of cyclodextrin molecules linked to siUca gel by specific nonhydrolytic silane linkages (5,6). This stable cyclodextrin bonded phase is sold commercially under the trade name Cyclobond (Advanced Separation Technologies, Whippany, New Jersey). The vast majority of all reported hplc separations on CD-bonded phases utilize this media which was also the first chiral stationary phase (csp) developed for use in the reversed-phase mode. 

Determination of ethyleneamines in air can be accomplished by absorbing the amines on NITC (1-naphthyl isothiocyanate) treated XAD-2 resin, then desorbing the derivative from the treated tubes and quantifying the amount using high performance Hquid chromatography (hplc). Sensitivity is reported as 0.37 and 0.016 mg/m for EDA and DETA, respectively, pet sample (153,154). 

The recent development and comparative application of modern separation techniques with regard to determination of alkylphosphonic acids and lewisite derivatives have been demonstrated. This report highlights advantages and shortcomings of GC equipped with mass spectrometry detector and HPLC as well as CE with UV-Vis detector. The comparison was made from the sampling point of view and separation/detection ability. The derivatization procedure for GC of main degradation products of nerve agents to determine in water samples was applied. Direct determination of lewisite derivatives by HPLC-UV was shown. Also optimization of indirect determination of alkylphosphonic acids in CE-UV was developed. Finally, the new instrumental development and future trends will be discussed. 

Early [1, 2] it was reported about RP-HPLC the separation of amino derivatives of 3-chloro-l,4-naphtoquinone with methanol mobile phase. In some cases changing organic modificator in eluent leads to the progress in effectiveness of sepai ation. In present work the compaiison was performed for separation of some amino derivatives of 3-chloro-I,4-naphtoquinone by RP-HPLC with methanol and acetonitrile eluent. It has been shown that certain differences exist for vaiious derivatives mentioned above. 

Biosensors ai e widely used to the detection of hazardous contaminants in foodstuffs, soil and fresh waters. Due to high sensitivity, simple design, low cost and real-time measurement mode biosensors ai e considered as an alternative to conventional analytical techniques, e.g. GC or HPLC. Although the sensitivity and selectivity of contaminant detection is mainly determined by a biological component, i.e. enzyme or antibodies, the biosensor performance can be efficiently controlled by the optimization of its assembly and working conditions. In this report, the prospects to the improvement of pesticide detection with cholinesterase sensors based on modified screen-printed electrodes are summarized. The following opportunities for the controlled improvement of analytical characteristics of anticholinesterase pesticides ai e discussed ... 

Multidimensional HPLC offers very high separation power when compared to monodimensional LC analysis. Thus, it can be applied to the analysis of very complex mixtures. Applications of on-line MD-HPLC have been developed, using various techniques such as heart-cut, on-column concentration or trace enrichment applications in which liquid phases on both columns are miscible and compatible are frequently reported, but the on-line coupling of columns with incompatible mobile phases have also been studied. 

Different transfer techniques and type of interfaces have been developed. Most of the applications involve normal-phase HPLC conditions, although reversed-phase coupled with capillary GC has also been reported. 

The analysis of sterols, sterols esters, erythrodiol and uvaol, and other minor components of oils and fats, is usually carried out by normal-phase HPLC-HRGC by using a loop-type interface and the concurrent eluent evaporation technique, as reported in the papers cited by Mondello et al. (48) (up to 1995) and in more recent papers (49, 50). More recently, reversed-phase LC-GC methods have been... 

Gas chromatography (GC) has also been used for preparative purposes, but is restricted to relatively volatile racemates such as anesthetics, pheromones or monoterpenes and, therefore, very few applications are reported. Nevertheless, in the cases to which GC may be applied, it could be considered as an economical alternative to HPLC. Most of the resolutions of enantiomers were performed on cyclodex-trin-derived CSPs [109, 144-153], and only on very few occasions were other chiral selectors used [153].
