چکیده

Capillary electrophoresis is widely used in the forensic community for the analysis of Short Tandem Repeat DNA. The CE system used in most forensic laboratories allows the user to modify standard operational protocols to accommodate some samples that fall outside of interpretational guidelines. We have made operational changes and monitored system resolution and the ability of the software to identify alleles as a result of these modifications. Increased amount of amplified product in the injection preparation, lengthened injection times or repeated injections of the same sample were all investigated along with variations in run voltages. Certain protocol modifications offer some advantages to the analysis of STRs and may allow the analyst to avoid extraction of additional portions of crime scene samples to achieve interpretable results.

Application of Guanidine Hcl to Improve Enantioseparation of a Model Basic Drug, Cetirizine, By Capillary Electrophoresis Using Sulfated Β-Cyclodextrin

A common approach in resolving enantiomers of chiral basic drugs by capillary electrophoresis (CE) is to use cyclodextrins (especially their anionic derivatives) as chiral selector in the acidic buffer (pH ≤ 3) in normal or reversed (carrier) mode. Then, some organic modifiers are added to the buffer solution if the resolution is not satisfactory. In case of cetirizine (CTN), applying the same ...

Chiral Separation of Basic and Zwitterionic Drugs by Highly Sulfated Cyclodextrins Using Short-End Injection Capillary Electrophoresis Highly Sulfated Cyclodextrins Using Short-End Injection Capillary Electrophoresis

Due to high resolution power of sulfated cyclodextrins (HS-CDs), utilization of these selectors for chiral resolution of 7 basic and 2 zwitterionic drugs have been examined. Experiments were performed on a HP3DCE instrument equipped with an on-column diode array UV absorbance detector. Fused silica capillaries with an inner diameter of 50 ?m, an outer diameter of 365 ?m, and a total length of 4...
