HPLC in Enzymatic Analysis

The use of High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) techniques in the study of enzymatic reactions has grown significantly since the publication of the first edition of this highly successful book: the role of enzymes in biological research has expanded; the application of HPLC and enzymes has extended to more disciplines; advances in separation techniques and instrumentation have increased the capability of HPLC; and the discovery of new enzymes has spawned new methods of analysis.

High Performance Liquid Chromatography in Enzymatic Analysis, Second Edition addresses these developments in its coverage of the refinements of HPLC methods and their use in a wide range of laboratory applications. It offers the same practical approach found in the first edition, incorporates a wealth of new information into existing chapters, and adds new chapters to deal with new applications, including capillary electrophoresis, forensic chemistry, microdialysis, and the polymerase chain reaction. Topics include:
* Application of HPLC to the assay of enzymatic activities
* Concepts and principles of HPLC, including the latest technological advances
* Concepts and principles of capillary electrophoresis (CE)
* Strategy for design of an HPLC/CE system for assay of enzyme activity
* Preparation of enzymatic activities from tissues and single cells
* Analysis of enzymatic activities in body fluids, including chromatobiosis
* HPLC for the identification of new enzymatic activities
* Fundamentals of the polymerase chain reaction
* HPLC in forensics
* Survey of enzymatic activities assayed by the HPLC method, including many new categories
* Multienzyme systems, including many new examples
* HPLC in the analysis of contaminated food

"It is the ability of HPLC to accomplish separations completely and rapidly that led to its original application to problems in the life sciences, particularly those related to purification. An analysis of the literature revealed that this technique was used primarily for the purification of small molecules, macromolecules such as peptides and proteins, and more recently, antibodies. This application to purification has all but dominated the use of the method, and there has been a plethora of books, symposia, and conferences on the use of HPLC for these purposes. However, it was only a matter of time before others began to look beyond and to explore the possibilities that result from the capacity to make separations quickly and efficiently." --from the preface to the First Edition

Easy to read and full of practical advice and hundreds of diagrams and examples, High Performance Liquid Chromatography in Enzymatic Analysis, Second Edition is an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and laboratory workers in analytical chemistry and biochemistry, molecular biology and cell biology, and for anyone interested in keeping up with this fast-growing field.

High-Performance Gradient Elution: The Practical Application of the Linear-Solvent-Strength Mode

Gradient elution demystified

Of the various ways in which chromatography is applied today, few have been as misunderstood as the technique of gradient elution, which presents many challenges compared to isocratic separation. When properly explained, however, gradient elution can be less difficult to understand and much easier to use than often assumed.

Written by two well-known authorities in liquid chromatography, High-Performance Gradient Elution: The Practical Application of the Linear-Solvent-Strength Model takes the mystery out of the practice of gradient elution and helps remove barriers to the practical application of this important separation technique. The book presents a systematic approach to the current understanding of gradient elution, describing theory, methodology, and applications across many of the fields that use liquid chromatography as a primary analytical tool.

This up-to-date, practical, and comprehensive treatment of gradient elution:
* Provides specific, step-by-step recommendations for developing a gradient separation for any sample
* Describes the best approach for troubleshooting problems with gradient methods
* Guides the reader on the equipment used for gradient elution
* Lists which conditions should be varied first during method development, and explains how to interpret scouting gradients
* Explains how to avoid problems in transferring gradient methods

With a focus on the use of linear solvent strength (LSS) theory for predicting gradient LC behavior and separations by reversed-phase HPLC, High-Performance Gradient Elution gives every chromatographer access to this useful tool.

Oxidative Stress and Antioxidant Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology)

onald Armstrong updates and expands his highly praised Free Radical and Antioxidant Protocols (Humana, 1998) with a collection of new and valuable methods for evaluating the pertubations in cell function resulting from increased oxidative stress. Presented in a user-friendly, step-by-step format, these readily reproducible techniques cover both free radical-derived and antioxidant biomarkers. The methodologies demonstrated include ELISA, HPLC, infrared spectroscopy, gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy, immunoblotting, electroelution fractionation, isoelectric focusing, voltametry, and electron paramagnetic resonance imaging. Special emphasis is given to the separation of complex mixtures of plant antioxidants, soft drug design to protect from toxic oxidative metabolites, in vitro oxidation conditions, and correcting for random measurement error to improve statistical interpretation.

HPLC Practical Guide

This book answers two basic questions regarding chromatography; it focuses on how compounds can high-performance liquid be separated and on why particular compounds are separated by liquid chromatographic methods. It consists of six chapters: Basic Concepts of HPLC; Instrumentation: Preparation, Testing and Selectivity of Stationary Phase Materials; Selection of the Eluent; Separation Based on an Improved Column Efficiency; Influence of
Physical Chemistry on Separations in Liquid Chromatography. The focus is on the basic considerations in liquid chromatography rather than the applications but there are also sections on trouble-shooting. The book is concerned mainly with the selection of a packing material and the preparation of the eluent. Theoretical optimization is demonstrated using the chromatography of simple chemicals, to aid the understanding of liquid chromatography by graduate students. The examples given go beyond what can be found in general textbooks
on liquid chromatography. The separations can be easily understood from the differences in properties of familiar compounds known to undergraduate students.The chromatographic separations described are based on solubility using molecular properties. The selection of chromatographic mode and column is analysed using solubility parameters. The separation factor cc is described in detail by physical and chemical parameters. Discussion of instrumentation focuses on high-efficiency operation and is concerned with degassing, the time constant, flow cell design, connectors and trouble-shooting. Packing materials and their synthesis and surface modification, liquid chromatographic analysis of surface activity and the evaluation of packed columns, including the measurement of void volume, are also considered.

Development and Validation of HPLC Methods For Analytical And Preparative Purposes

Liquid chromatography (LC) is a separation method of great importance to the chemical, pharmaceutical and biotechnological industry. The principle is that a sample of a solution of the substances is injected into a column of an porous material (stationary phase) and a liquid (mobile phase) is pumped through the column. The separation of substances is based on differences in rates of migration through the column arising from different partition of the substances between the stationary and the mobile phase. Depending on the partition behavior of the different types of substances, these will elute at different times from the column outlet.
