Solid-phase extraction purification

The determination of nitrite in egg highlights the beneficial aspects of sonoelec-trochemical analysis in difficult matrices. Moreover, the advantages of the technique include significant simplification over the liquid chromatographic procedure currently employed for nitrite detection [69], which involves hot water extraction, protein precipitation and solid-phase extraction / purification.

The development of solid-phase extraction (SPE) absorbents such as silica gel, alumina and Florisil tremendously aided in the purification or cleanup of pesticide residues from water. 

A cleanup procedure is usually carried out to remove co-extracted matrix components that may interfere in the chromatographic analysis or be detrimental to the analytical instrument. The cleanup procedure is dependent on the nature of the analyte, the type of sample to be analyzed, and the selectivity and sensitivity of the analytical instrument used in the analysis. Preliminary purification of the sample extracts prior to chromatographic separation involves liquid-liquid partitioning and/or solid-phase extraction (SPE) using charcoal/Celite, Elorisil, carbon black, silica, or aminopropyl-silica based adsorbents or gel permeation chromatography (GPC). 

Fluorous ligands introduce an ease of purification in that the tagged phosphine ligand, the palladium catalyst complexed ligand, and the oxidized ligand can be completely removed by direct fluorous solid-phase separation (F-SPE) prior to product isolation. Similarly, an example of a fluorous palladium-catalyzed microwave-induced synthesis of aryl sulfides has been reported, whereby the product purification was aided by fluorous solid-phase extraction [91]. 

The utility of a new fluorine supported chiral auxiliary was established in a series of catalyzed and uncatalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions with diphenylnitrone (637b) (Scheme 2.281) (797). The yields and selectivities of the cycloadducts (645a—d) compare favorably with those obtained with conventional Evans-type auxiliaries (798). Purification of the products was greatly improved by using fluorous solid phase extraction (FSPE). 

The assembly of tetrapeptide 19 that contains all possible 0-dipeptide bonds, (03-03)-, (03-02)-, and (02-03), and also a turn inducing 03-(R)-Ala-02-(R)-Val element was achieved employing a Boc-strategy (Scheme 5). A fluorous benzyl group was incorporated in the first amino acid to streamline the purification procedure by fluorous solid phase extraction (LSPE) (Lilippov et al. 2002 de Visser et al. 2003). Thus, the assembly of the fully protected tetrapeptide commenced with the construction of the first 03-03-peptide bond by applying the previously established conditions. A residence time of 3 min at 90°C provided the Boc-protected dipeptide 15 in 91% isolated yield after LSPE. Notably, the product precipitated in the collection flask, which was kept at ambient temperature, indicating the poor solubility of this class of compounds (Hessel et al. 2005). 

In order to study simultaneously the behaviour of parent priority surfactants and their degradation products, it is essential to have accurate and sensitive analytical methods that enable the determination of the low concentrations generally occurring in the aquatic environment. As a result of an exhaustive review of the analytical methods used for the quantification within the framework of the three-year research project Priority surfactants and their toxic metabolites in wastewater effluents An integrated study (PRISTINE), it is concluded that the most appropriate procedure for this purpose is high-performance (HP) LC in reversed phase (RP), associated with preliminary techniques of concentration and purification by solid phase extraction (SPE). However, the complex mixtures of metabolites and a lack of reference standards currently limit the applicability of HPLC with UV- or fluorescence (FL-) detection methods. 

The synthesis of 6-hydroxy fluvastatin with M. rammaniana DSM 62752 gave high conversion (>95 %) in shake flask culture on 400 mL scale with 0.1 g L of fluvastatin as well as on 22 L scale in a Wave bioreactor-fed batch process at a final substrate concentration of 0.4 g L Instead of the partial purification by a second solid-phase extraction described above, 6-hydroxy fluvastatin can be obtained in high purity ( 95 %) by, for example, preparative medium-pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC) on RP18 silica gel. ... 

Surface enhanced laser desorption/ionization (SELDI) is a distinctive form of laser desorption ionization where the target plays an active role in the sample preparation procedure and ionization process [49]. Depending on the chemical or biochemical treatment, the SELDI surface acts as solid phase extraction or an affinity probe. Chromatographic surface is used for sample fractionation and purification of biological samples prior to direct analysis by laser desorption/ ionization. SELDI is mainly applied for protein profiling and in biomarker discovery by comparing protein profiles from control and patient groups. 

Following initial sample extraction, the primary extract must frequently be subjected to some kind of further cleanup including liquid-liquid partitioning, diphasic dialysis, solid-phase extraction, matrix solid-phase dispersion, immunoaffinity chromatography cleanup, liquid chromatography cleanup, or online trace enrichment. In some instances, some of these procedures are used in combination in order to attain higher purification levels.
