Precolumn diastereomerization and micellar electrokinetic chromatography on a plastic microchip: rapid chiral analysis of amino acids.

Chiral micellar electrokinetic chromatography-laser induced fluorescence of amino acids in foods: analysis of vinegars

Poly(dimethylsiloxane) microchip for precolumn reaction and micellar electrokinetic chromatography of biogenic amines.

We have demonstrated that precolumn derivatization and capillary electrophoresis separation on a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microchip can be realized as efficient as those on glass microchips. In an optimized condition of micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC), using 25 mM sodium borate buffer (pH 10.0) with 25 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and 5% v/v methanol, the electroosmotic fl...

Use of poly(sodium oleyl-L-leucylvalinate) surfactant for the separation of chiral compounds in micellar electrokinetic chromatography.

A chiral amino acid-based monomeric and polymeric surfactant, sodium oleyl-L-leucylvalinate) (L-SOLV) and poly(sodium oleyl-L-leucylvalinate) (poly-L-SOLV) were synthesized and used for chiral separations in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC). Poly-L-SOLV was used successfully in the separation of various enantiomers of neutral, acidic, and basic analytes such as 1,1'-bi-2-napthol, 1...

Novel anionic copolymerized surfactants of mixed achiral and chiral surfactants as pseudostationary phases for micellar electrokinetic chromatography.

One disadvantage of amino acid-based chiral selectors for micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) is that either they have very low solubility or are insoluble at acidic pHs. In order to increase solubilities at lower pHs, we have synthesized a highly water-soluble achiral surfactant and copolymerized it with an amino acid-based chiral surfactant. These two surfactants were polymerized ei...

Quantitation of chiral amino acids from microalgae by micellar electrokinetic chromatography and laser induced fluorescence detection

Running Title: Chiral analysis of microalgae amino acids by MEKC-LIF ABSTRACT In this work, a chiral and a non-chiral micellar electrokinetic chromatography with laser-induced fluorescence detection (MEKC-LIF) have been combined to identify and quantify a group of D-and L-amino acids (D/L-aa) in different microalgae samples. The combination of the non-chiral and chiral-MEKC-LIF methods made eas...
