Highly Sensitive Chiral Analysis in Capillary Electrophoresis

Chiral capillary electrophoresis in food analysis.

This review article addresses the different chiral capillary electrophoretic methods used to study and characterize foods and beverages through the enantiomeric separation of different food compounds such as amino acids, pesticides, polyphenols, etc. This work intends to provide an updated overview on the main applications of such enantioselective procedures together with their main advantages ...

Cyclodextrine Screening for the Chiral Separation of Carvedilol by Capillary Electrophoresis

Carvedilol is administered as a racemic mixture of the R(+)- and S(-)-enantiomers, although it was demonstrated that the two enantiomers exhibit different pharmacological effects and stereoselective pharmacokinetics. The aim of this study was the evaluation of several native and derivatized cyclodextrines as chiral selectors for the separation of carvedilol enantiomers. Stereoselective interact...

An Introduction to Chiral Analysis by Capillary Electrophoresis

Chiral Analyses of Pollutants by Capillary Electrophoresis

The determination of enantiomeric composition of chiral xenobiotics and pollutants is a very difficult job due to their low amounts and poor detection by commonly used UV detector. But this sort of analysis is an important issue from the health point of view. The chiral analyses of these notorious pollutants by capillary electrophoresis have been discussed in this article. This review discusses...
