Column configurations and cladding techniques were investigated in detail. Three novel approaches have been developed for the synthesis of bimodal porous rods. Out of these three methods, gel-casting was adopted for the synthesis of silica monoliths with ordered mesopores and uniform macropores; the use of colloidal templates and dual phase separation has been successfully implemented for the synthesis of carbon monoliths with well-controlled meso- and macro- porosities. The formation of mesopores in carbon materials has been further studied in the microphase separation of block copolymers. Electrochemical modification of carbon monoliths was discovered to be an efficient method for converting covalently bonded functionalities to carbon monoliths. N,N’-diethylaminobenzene has been attached to carbon surface for the separation of proteins and protein digests. The performances of carbon-based monolithic columns were studied intensely through frontal analysis and Van Deemter plot. Temperature and pressure effects were also investigated in carbon-based columns. The density of bonding on the modified carbon monoliths was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis. iii CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION .......................................................................................................................1 1.1 The background of chromatography................................................................................................1 1.2 Components of an HPLC system......................................................................................................3 1.3 The history of particulate columns...................................................................................................5 1.4 The nature of monolithic columns....................................................................................................7 1.5 Development of monolithic columns ................................................................................................9 1.6 The classification of monolithic HPLC columns............................................................................11 1.7 Goals of this work..........................................................................................................................15 CHAPTER 2: CONFIGURATIONS OF MONOLITHIC COLUMNS .......................................................................18 2.1 New challenges associated with monolithic columns.....................................................................18 2.2 Polymer-lined stainless steel-tubing encasing ...............................................................................20 2.2.1 Materials for column fabrication ............................................................................................................ 21 2.2.2 General procedure for column encasing................................................................................................. 21 2.2.3 Discussion of the preparation procedure ................................................................................................ 22 2.3 Glass-shrinking encapsulation.......................................................................................................24 2.3.1 Setup and shrinking procedure for glass tubing...................................................................................... 25 2.3.2 Key points for glass shrinking................................................................................................................ 26 2.4 Polymerization encapsulation (polymer coating) ..........................................................................27 2.4.1 Materials for polymer coating ................................................................................................................ 27 2.4.2 General procedure for fabrication of polymer-coated monolithic columns ............................................ 28 2.4.3 Discussion of the polymer-coated column configuration ....................................................................... 29 2.5 Multicapillary-array configuration for microbore monolithic columns ........................................29 CHAPTER 3: PREPARATION OF MONOLITHIC SILICA COLUMNS VIA GEL-CASTING ......................................32 3.1 Silica monolithic columns with ordered mesopores and tunable macrochannels..........................32 3.2 The fabrication of silica monolithic columns.................................................................................35 3.2.1 Materials and instruments ...................................................................................................................... 35 3.2.2 The synthesis of mesoporous silica particles.......................................................................................... 36 3.2.3 Gel-casting of silica particles into a monolithic rod ............................................................................... 36 iv 3.2.4 Fabrication and surface modification of silica columns ......................................................................... 37 3.2.5 HPLC application................................................................................................................................... 38 3.3 Results and discussion ...................................................................................................................38 3.4 Conclusion .....................................................................................................................................43 CHAPTER 4: CARBON MONOLITHIC COLUMNS MADE BY COLLOIDAL TEMPLATES......................................44

  • Identification Criteria for Qualitative Assays Incorporating Column Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry
    WADA Technical Document – TD2010IDCR Document Number: TD2010IDCR Version Number: 1.0 Written by: WADA Laboratory Committee Approved by: WADA Executive Committee Approval Date: 08 May, 2010 Effective Date: 01 September, 2010 IDENTIFICATION CRITERIA FOR QUALITATIVE ASSAYS INCORPORATING COLUMN CHROMATOGRAPHY AND MASS SPECTROMETRY The ability of a method to identify a compound is a function of the entire procedure: sample preparation; chromatographic separation; mass analysis; and data assessment. Any description of the method for purposes of documentation should include all parts of the method. The appropriate analytical characteristics shall be documented for a particular assay. The Laboratory shall establish criteria for identification of a compound. 1.0 Sample Preparation The purpose of the sample preparation and chromatographic separation is to present a relatively pure chemical component from the sample to the mass spectrometer. The sample purification step can significantly change both the performance of the chromatographic system and the mass spectrometer. For example, a change in extraction solvent can selectively remove interferences and matrix components that might otherwise co-elute with the compound of interest. In addition, selective preparation procedures such as immunoaffinity extraction or fractions collected from high performance liquid chromatography separation can provide a solution that is nearly devoid of any other compounds. 2.0 Chromatographic Separation 2.1 Gas Chromatography • For capillary gas chromatography, the retention time (RT) of the analyte shall not differ by more than two (2) percent or ±0.1 minutes (whichever is smaller) from that of the same substance in a spiked urine sample, Reference Collection sample, or Reference Material analyzed contemporaneously; • Alternatively, the laboratory may choose to use relative retention time (RRT) as an acceptance criterion, where the retention time of the peak of interest is measured relative to a chromatographic reference compound (CRC).

When the template is removed, the polymer is “imprinted” with the shape of the template and with complementary functional groups that can bind to the template. The imprinted polymer can be used as a stationary phase in affinity chromatography. Molecular Imprinting Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC) • Based on the interaction of a hydrophobic stationary phase with a hydrophobic region of a solute such as a protein • A protein can have hydrophilic regions that make it soluble in water and hydrophobic regions interacting with a hydrophobic stationary phase • Proteins are adsorbed on the hydrophobic surface when the aqueous mobile phase contains high salt concentration • Eluent strength is increased by decreasing the salt concentration Hydrophilic Interaction Chromatography (HILIC) • Most useful for small molecules too polar to be retained by reversed-phase HPLC • Stationary phases are strongly polar • The mobile phase contains ≥ 80% polar organic solvent mixed with water Hydrophilic Interaction Chromatography (cont.) • Solute equilibrates between the mobile phase and a layer of aqueous phase on the surface of the stationary phase • Eluent strength is increased by increasing the fraction of water in the mobile phase.
