A sweeping-micellar electrokinetic chromatography method for the detection of three chlorophenols in cosmetic samples

Separation of preservatives in cosmetic products by micellar electrokinetic chromatography.

This paper describes the methodological optimization and validation of a simple micellar electrokinetic chromatography for the rapid simultaneous separation of 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one, methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben. By using a 30 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.2) containing 30 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), an applied voltage of 10 kV and a separation temperatu...

Micellar electrokinetic chromatography with laser-induced fluorescence detection applied to the analysis of biological samples

Determination of corticosterone and 17-hydroxycorticosterone in plasma and urine samples by sweeping techniques using micellar electrokinetic chromatography.

The analysis of corticosterone in mouse blood serum (metabolic-stress experiment) and 17-hydroxycorticosterone in human urine (exercise-stress experiment) samples by means of capillary electrophoresis/UV absorbance in conjunction with online sample concentration techniques is described. The use of normal MEKC had an analyte detection limit of 7 microg/ml (S/N=3); whereas when online sample conc...

Processes involved in sweeping as sample enrichment method in cyclodextrin-modified micellar electrokinetic chromatography of hydrophobic basic analytes.

Sweeping is an enrichment method in MEKC, which includes following steps: stacking/destacking of the micelles, sweeping of analyte by the stacked/destacked micelles, destacking/stacking of the swept analyte zone and additional focusing/defocusing due to the retention factor gradient effect (RFGE). In this study, we investigate additional processes, regarding online focusing in cyclodextrin-modi...
