In the separation channel, the membrane adsorption and aggregation of proteins affected by the carrier fluid (CF) composition lead to changes in analyte recovery and size distribution, thereby restricting the application of AF4 to biomolecules. Different pH levels (6.2, 7.4, 8.2), several types of cations (Na<sup>+</sup>, K<sup>+</sup>, Mg<sup>2+</sup>) and various ion strengths (0-0.1 mol/L)were studied to demonstrate the influence of carrier fluid composition on the membrane adsorption and aggregation of proteins. The results revealed the following:a) higher ion strength of CF resulted in a greater degree of membrane adsorption and aggregation; b) the zeta potential, determined by the pI of the protein and the pH of the CF, influenced the adsorption and aggregation; c) divalent cations (Mg<sup>2+</sup>) caused serious adsorption and aggregation. The experimental results can help us achieve better recovery and mitigate aggregate formation by using the optimal CF components in future AF4 studies. Moreover, the findings indicate that AF4 would find extensive application in protein biochemistry assays.</p>","PeriodicalId":206652,"journal":{"name":"Se pu = Chinese journal of chromatography","volume":"36 5","pages":"480-486"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2018-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"36420262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The extraction methods of carotenoids from different types of samples were also established. Separation and quantification was achieved by using a Diamonsil C18 column (250 mm x 4.6 mm i.d., 5 microm), and a mobile phase of acetonitrile and ethyl acetate were used with the following gradient elution: 100% acetonitrile at the first 15 min, then ethyl acetate increased to 100% in the next 10 min, at last 100% acetonitrile for 5 min with a flow rate of 1 mL/min, temperature of 25 degrees C and monitored with a photodiode array detector at 450 nm. The external standard calibration curves were used for quantification. There were good linear correlations for the four carotenoids. The correlation coefficients were between 0.999 4 and 0. 999 7. The detection limits were 0.4-0.5 mg/L. The recoveries of four carotenoids in tablet samples were 95.3%-98.7% with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.89%-2.0%. The recoveries of four carotenoids in powder samples were 93.7%-98.8% with RSDs of 0.89%-2.8%. The recoveries of four carotenoids in oil samples were 97.1%-99.2% with RSDs of 0.42%-1.2%.

It was proposed that the retention time in GC is affected by three main factors for RX compounds, alkyl group R, substituted group X, and interaction between R and X. Using four parameters, the eigenvalue of bonding orbital-connection matrix EVM, the polarizability effect index of alkyl group PEI, the mass content for substituted group X, and the partial charge deltaN(H) on hydrogen atom of the group X, a quantitative structure-retention correlation model with correlation coefficient (r) of 0.9948 and standard deviation (S) of 0.0991 was obtained for the 37 RX compounds.
