A reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was established for the simultaneous determination of 12, 13-dihydroxyeuparin and glycyrrhizic acid in Yanyanfang mixture. A Grace Apollo C18 column (250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) was used as the stationary phase and the mobile phase was composed of acetonitrile and aqueous phosphoric acid (0.2%, v/v). Gradient elution was carried out...

A procedure is described for purification of a factor (D-factor)-inducing differentiation of mouse myeloid leukemic cells (M1) into macrophages from serum-free mouse L929 cell-conditioned medium. The procedure included ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose, Sephadex G-200 and phenyl-Sepharose column chromatographies, reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography on a C18 hydroph...

A rapid method for detecting deoxynivalenol (DON), also known as vomitoxin, was developed. DON was extracted from grains and other samples with acetonitrile-4% potassium chloride solution (9 + 1). Impurities that would interfere with detection were removed on a C18 silica gel reverse phase column. Water was removed from eluates on a hydrophilic matrix column. DON was detected by thin layer chro...

The human acetylation genotype was determined by measuring urinary caffeine metabolites by use of a modification of a previously published HPLC method. The problem of separation of 7-methylxanthine (7X) from 1-methyluric acid (IU) in urine extracts was achieved by adding a phenyl column, in tandem with a C18 reverse-phase column, by means of a methanol:aqueous acetic acid gradient elution syste...

A method for the determination of Thiamethoxam in bee samples was set up by means of high performance liquid chromatography with an electrochemical detector and post-column photochemical reactor (HPLC-h nu-ED). Analytical method was based on a rapid sample extraction procedure with acetone, followed by chromatographic separation into a C18-RP column isocratically operated by 60 mM phosphate buf...

A high-performance liquid chromatographic multiresidue method was developed for the determination of 8 penicillin compounds (benzylpenicillin, phenoxymethylpenicillin, ampicillin, amoxicillin, nafcillin, oxacillin, cloxacillin, and dicloxacillin) at trace levels in muscle tissue. This method involves extraction of the penicillins with phosphate buffer pH 9 followed by cleanup and concentration ...

We describe a micro-scale method for determining serum theophylline. The chromatography system includes a muBondapack C18 column and acetonitrile, 70 ml/liter of sodium acetate buffer (10 mmol/liter, ph 4.0) as the mobile phase. Test serum or plasma, 30 mul, is mixed with an equal quantity of a solution containing the internal standard, beta-hydroxyethyltheophylline in acetonitrile/sodium aceta...

A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the determination of azadirachtin (A and B) residues in bovine muscle has been developed. Azadirachtin is a neutral triterpene and chemotherapeutic agent effective in controlling some pest flies in horses, stables, horns and fruit. The actual HPLC method uses an isocratic elution and UV detection. Liquid-liquid extraction and solid-phas...

The purpose of the present work was to develop and validate a reliable and effective method for the analysis of Shengmai injection and its raw materials by reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography. The Kromasil C18 column (5 μm, 4.6 mm × 250 mm)was used. Water containing 0.01% phosphoric acid and acetonitrile were used as mobile phases with gradient elution. The detection wavelengths w...

We developed a high-performance liquid-chromatographic separation of five steroids (estriol, estradiol, cortisol, progesterone, and testosterone), eluting with a water-acetonitrile gradient from a reversed-phase (C18) column. By applying a simplex search algorithm to maximize a chromatographic-response function, we sought to optimize the original conditions of the chromatographic analysis, whic...
