A method for the separation, isolation, and identification of phytosterols was developed. A commercial phytosterols mixture, Generol 95S, was fractionated first by adsorption silica gel column chromatography and then separated by means of a semipreparative reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography fitted with a Polaris C8-A column (250 mm x 10 mm i.d., 5 microm) using isocratic acetonitrile:2-propanol:water (2:1:1, v/v/v) as the mobile phase. Milligram scales of six individual phytosterols, including citrostadienol, campesterol, beta-sitosterol, Delta7-avenasterol, Delta7-campesterol, and Delta7-sitosterol, were obtained. Purities of these isolated sterols were 85-98%. Relative response factors (RRF) of these phytosterols were calculated against cholestanol as an authentic commercial standard. These RRF values were used to quantify by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) the phytosterols content in a reference material, oils, and chocolates.  相似文献

Aflatoxins were completely resolved as sharp peaks in the order BU-B2-G1-G2 by high-pressure liquid chromatography on a small particle (10 mum) porous silica gel column in 7-13 min (B1 through G2) by a water-saturated chloroform-cyclohexane-acetonitrile elution solvent (25+7.5+1.0), with detection by ultraviolet absorbance at 360 nm. The relationship between peak height and amount injected was linear over a 5-400 ng range for each aflatoxin. Both retention times and peak heights were highly reproducible, multiple injections of mixed standards giving coefficients of variation of 1.0-1.4% (retention time) and 1.6-2.8% (peak height) for the 4 aflatoxins. Detection was highly sensitive, with mean peak height, mm/ng, of 7.1 (B1), 6.4 (B2), 4.5 (G1), and 4.1(G2), allowing detection of 1-2 ng of each aflatoxin.  相似文献

Two nonvolatile beta-carboline alkaloids were isolated from the Maillard reaction between xylose and tryptophan by solvent extraction and flash silica gel column chromatography. Their structures were elucidated by spectral methods (UV, MS, and NMR) as 1-(1,4-dihydroxybutyl)-beta-carboline and 1-(1,3, 4-trihydroxybutyl)-beta-carboline.  相似文献

A new extraction and chromatographic procedure to quantify free and esterified ergosterol in tomato products was devised. The extraction solution was composed of a dichloromethane/methanol mixture in a 2:1 (v/v) ratio. This extraction solvent allowed for higher ergosterol recovery from tomato products (an average of 25% more) compared to hexane, which is frequently employed for ergosterol extraction. Both free and esterified ergosterol were determined by HPLC reverse-phase chromatography employing a Nova-Pak C-18 column (300 x 3.9 mm), filled with 4 mm average particle size and a guard column of the same material. The elution was performed at a flow rate of 1 mL. min(-1) with a linear gradient of solvent A (methanol/water, 80:20, v/v) and solvent B (dichloromethane). The gradient, starting at sample injection, was from 0 to 50% B for 20 min for the free ergosterol analysis and additional 15 min at 50% B to analyze the ergosterol esters. This technique has proven to be more sensitive for ergosterol determination than other reported chromatographic procedures. Moreover, ergosterol esters, extracted from various fungal sources, separated well and were easily quantified.  相似文献

A simple and highly sensitive reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method (RP-HPLC) has been developed for the determination of steviol (SV) using dihydroisosteviol (DHISV) as an internal standard (IS). SV and DHISV were derivatized by reaction of the acids with 4-(bromomethyl)-7-methoxycoumarin in an aprotic solvent (DMF or acetone). The resulting ester derivatives were separated on an ODS column (250 x 4.6 mm i.d., 5 microm particle size) using fluorescence detection with excitation at 321 nm and emission at 391 nm. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile/water (80:20 v/v) with a flow rate of 1 mL min(-)(1). A linear relationship was observed for concentrations between 0.5 and 50 microg/mL of SV, and the detection limit was 100 pg. For application of this method to samples of beer fortified with stevioside, a simple procedure for extraction of the beer with diethyl ether and derivatization in DMF was applied. Whereas beer samples spiked with SV gave a linear response over the range 0.1-15 microg/mL beer, no SV could be detected in beer samples enriched in stevioside that had been stored for over 3 years. The application of the method to plant samples involved preparation of an acid fraction containing the SV analyte, derivatization, and sample cleanup using small silica columns and thin-layer chromatography. A sensitive determination of 594 ng of steviol present in 100 mg of dry plant material was performed with high precision and accuracy.  相似文献

Leafy vegetables [Basella rubra L., Peucedanum sowa Roxb., Moringa oleifera Lam., Trigonella foenum-graecum L., Spinacia oleracea L., Sesbania grandiflora (L.) Poir., and Raphanus sativus L.] that are commonly used by the rural population in India were evaluated in terms of their main carotenoid pattern. The extracted carotenoids were purified by open column chromatography (OCC) on a neutral alumina column to verify their identity by their characteristic UV-visible absorption spectra. Reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on a C18 column with UV-visible photodiode array detection under isocratic conditions was used for quantification of isolated carotenoids. Acetonitrile/methanol/dichloromethane (60:20:20 v/v/v) containing 0.1% ammonium acetate was used as a mobile phase. The major carotenoids identified by both methods were lutein, beta-carotene, violaxanthin, neoxanthin, and zeaxanthin. Among the carotenoids identified, lutein and beta-carotene levels were found to be higher in these leafy vegetables. Results show that P. sowa and S. oleracea are rich sources of lutein (77-92 mg/100 g of dry wt) and beta-carotene (36-44 mg/100 g of dry wt) compared with other leafy vegetables. The purity of carotenoids eluted by OCC was clarified by HPLC, and they were found to be 92% +/- 3% for neoxanthin, 94% +/- 2% for violaxanthin, 97% +/-2% for lutein and zeaxanthin, and 90% +/- 3% for beta-carotene. It could be recommended to use P. sowa and S. oleracea as rich sources of lutein and beta-carotene for health benefits. The OCC method proposed is relatively simple and provides purified carotenoids for feeding trials.  相似文献

Determination of trace residues of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDDs and PCDFs) in various matrixes is carried out by a limited number of laboratories in the United States, Canada, and other countries. Current methods for analysis of foods and biological tissues include a combination of preparation, extraction, cleanup, isolation, determination, and identity confirmation procedures. Soxhlet, liquid/liquid, solid-phase, and column extraction procedures are used as well as treatment with acid or base before solvent extraction. Cleanup and isolation steps include sulfuric acid partitioning; adsorption chromatography on Florisil, silica gel, or alumina; gel permeation chromatography; multi-stage column chromatography on sulfuric acid silica and alkali silica; carbon column chromatography; and liquid chromatography fractionation with size exclusion, normal-phase, and reverse-phase columns. Activated carbon and multistage chromatographic columns are widely used in cleanup schemes. Isomer-specific identification and quantitation of PCDD and PCDF congeners at parts-per-trillion levels or lower are carried out by high resolution (capillary) gas chromatography (HRGC) and multiple ion detection mass spectrometry. In addition to chemical methods, bioassay procedures have been recommended (e.g., use of monoclonal antibodies, for immunoassay determination of PCDDs and PCDFs).  相似文献

Chromatographic fractionation of crude extracts (C8 extracts) from the protein-enriched flour of commercial field peas (Pisum sativum L.) has been shown here to yield peptide mixtures related to the pea albumin 1b (PA1b) family of cysteine-rich plant peptides. The mixtures were obtained initially by flash chromatography with silica gel. Following elution of soyasaponins and lysolecithins, the end fractions obtained with the use of two flash chromatographic solvent systems displayed activity in a flour disk antifeedant bioassay with the rice weevil [Sitophilus oryzae (L.)]. Chemical properties of these mixtures were compared by thin-layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), IR, MS, and amino acid analyses. The major peptides of C8 extracts, with average masses of 3752, 3757, and 3805 Da, were isolated by anion exchange chromatography. Samples enriched in the peptide of mass 3752 were isolated by cation exchange chromatography. Reduction plus alkylation experiments in combination with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry showed that C8 extracts contained about 10 peptides and, like PA1b, each peptide possessed six cysteine residues (three disulfide bonds). Disulfide bond reduction with 2-mercaptoethanol destroyed the antifeedant activity. The native peptides of C8 extracts were found to be resolved into nine peaks with XTerra HPLC columns operating at alkaline pH. These columns were employed to assess the distribution of pea peptides in the isolated fractions, with photodiode array and electrospray detection.  相似文献

A celulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) coated onto APS silica (Nucleosil, particle size, 7 microm; pore size, 500 A) was used under a reversed-phase condition to measure the enantiomeric ratios of gossypol enantiomers in cottonseeds, flowers, and roots in a number of cultivars samples of different Gossipium species. While unidimensional chromatography was used for measuring the enantiomeric ratio of all the samples of G. hirsutum, G. mustelinum, and in the seeds of G. barbadense, multidimensional chromatography was necessary for the analysis of samples of roots and flowers of G. barbadense. In the latter case, an ODS Hypersil column was used in the first dimension for sample clean up, and the enantiomers were resolved on the second dimension by the chiral column. As expected, all the seed samples of G. hirsutum and G. mustelinum showed the (P)-(+)-enantiomer in excess, whereas the seeds of G. barbadense showed the (M)-(-)-enantiomer. However, (P)-(+)-gossypol was found in enantiomeric excess in three samples examined of roots and in one of flower of G. barbadense. These results are discussed in this paper.  相似文献

An analytical method was developed for determining benzo(a)pyrene in foods, suitable for routine use. The method consists of 4 cleanup steps: (1) alkali cleavage of sample, (2) preliminary silica gel column chromatography, (3) selective extraction with concentrated sulfuric acid, and (4) further silica gel column chromatography. Recoveries of benzo(a)pyrene added to 50 g (or 10 g) food at levels of 0.4 ppb (or 2 ppb) ranged from 70% for short-necked clam and mackeral to 85% for chicken meat. The sulfuric acid extraction step affords a simple method for isolating benzo(a)pyrene from various kinds of interfering substances which could not be separated by existing methods.  相似文献

A method for the determination of aflatoxin B1 in eggs was applicable for aflatoxin B1 in liver, but ineffective for aflatoxin M1 in liver because of poor recovery of added aflatoxin and interferences in thin layer chromatography. The method was modified by the addition of citric acid to the extracting solvent and ammonium sulfate to the extract solution for removing protein. The elution system for silica gel column cleanup was also changed by substituting methanol for acetone, and adding a step for confirmation of aflatoxin M1 identity. The method has been used successfully for survey and research on aflatoxin residues in animal tissues.  相似文献

An isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed for routine analysis of the main carotenoids related to the color of orange juice, using a more selective wavelength (486 nm) in which the absorption in the red-orange region of the visible spectra is maximum. Separation was carried out using as the mobile phase the mixture methanol:acetonitrile:methylene chloride:water (50:30:15:5, v/v/v/v), to which small amounts of butylated hydroxytoluene and triethylamine were added (0.1%). Identification was made by comparison either with standards obtained by thin-layer chromatography or with spectral data previously reported. The reproducibility of the method was remarkable; coefficients of variation for the most polar xanthophylls were under 1 and 4% for retention times and areas, respectively. Its application to Valencia late ultrafrozen orange juices has shown that major carotenoids are lutein + zeaxanthin (36%), lutein 5,6-epoxide (16%), antheraxanthin (14%), and beta-cryptoxanthin (12%).  相似文献

A solid-phase microextraction (SPME) method, coupled to liquid chromatography with diode array UV detection (LC-UV/DAD), for the simultaneous determination of cyclopiazonic acid, mycophenolic acid, tenuazonic acid, and ochratoxin A is described. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a propylamino-bonded silica gel stationary phase using acetonitrile/methanol/ammonium acetate buffer mixture (78:2:20, v/v/v) as mobile phase. SPME adsorption and desorption conditions were optimized using a silica fiber coated with a 60 microm thick polydimethylsiloxane/divinylbenzene film. Estimated limits of detection and limits of quantitation ranged from 3 to 12 ng/mL and from 7 to 29 ng/mL, respectively. The method has been applied to cornflake samples. Samples were subjected to a preliminary short sonication in MeOH/2% KHCO(3) (70:30, v/v); the mixture was evaporated to near dryness and reconstituted in 1.5 mL of 5 mM phosphate buffer (pH 3) for SPME followed by LC-UV/DAD. The overall procedure had recoveries (evaluated on samples spiked at 200 ng/g level) ranging from 74 +/- 4 to 103 +/- 9%. Samples naturally contaminated with cyclopiazonic and tenuazonic acids were found; estimated concentrations were 72 +/- 9 and 25 +/- 6 ng/g, respectively.  相似文献

Determination of halogenated contaminants in human adipose tissue   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
A method has been developed for determination of organochlorine contaminants in human adipose tissue. After fat extraction from the tissue with acetone-hexane (15 + 85, v/v), organochlorines were fractionated from fat by gel permeation chromatography with methylene chloride-cyclohexane (1 + 1, v/v) as solvent. After Florisil column cleanup, the GPC extract was analyzed by capillary column gas chromatography using 2 columns of different polarity. Compound identity was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using selected ion monitoring. Recoveries for fortification levels of 10-500 ng/g were greater than 80% except for trichlorobenzene and hexachlorobutadiene (ca 60%).  相似文献

Bitter gourd ( Momordica charantia L.) pericarp, placenta, and seed extracts were previously shown to induce apoptosis in HL60 human leukemia cells. To determine the active component that induces apoptosis in cancer cells, bitter gourd ethanol extract was fractionated by liquid-liquid partition and silica gel column chromatography. Several fractions obtained by silica gel column chromatography inhibited growth and induced apoptosis in HL60 cells. Among them, fraction 7 had the strongest activity in inhibiting growth and inducing apoptosis in HL60 cells. A component that induced apoptosis in HL60 cells was then isolated from fraction 7 by another silica gel column chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a C18 column and was identified as (9Z,11E,13E)-15,16-dihydroxy-9,11,13-octadecatrienoic acid (15,16-dihydroxy alpha-eleostearic acid). 15,16-Dihydroxy alpha-eleostearic acid induced apoptosis in HL60 cells within 5 h at a concentration of 160 microM (50 microg/mL). (9Z,11E,13E)-9,11,13-Octadecatrienoic acid (alpha-eleostearic acid) is known to be the major conjugated linolenic acid in bitter gourd seeds. Therefore, the effect of alpha-eleostearic acid on the growth of some cancer and normal cell lines was examined. alpha-Eleostearic acid strongly inhibited the growth of some cancer and fibroblast cell lines, including those of HL60 leukemia and HT29 colon carcinoma. alpha-Eleostearic acid induced apoptosis in HL60 cells after a 24 h incubation at a concentration of 5 microM. Thus, alpha-eleostearic acid and the dihydroxy derivative from bitter gourd were suggested to be the major inducers of apoptosis in HL60 cells.  相似文献

In this study, N-(2-aminoethyl)salicylaldimine bonded silica gel was synthesized and characterized using Fourier transform infrared and C, H, N elemental analysis. The analytical conditions such as the pH and volume of the solution, flow rates of the sample solution and the type of eluent to achieve the simultaneous preconcentration of Cu(II), Ni(II), Cd(II) and Zn(II) were optimised using the modified silica gel loaded column using a solid phase extraction technique. Samples (50?C500?ml) containing metal ions at optimal pH of 8 were passed through the column filled with the modified silica gel at 7?ml min?1 and then elution was achieved using 5?ml of 0.25?M HCl. The concentrations of metal ions in the eluates were determined using flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). The effects of matrix ions were also studied and none of the major ions interfered to the proposed method. The accuracy of the developed method was validated using a certified reference water sample (Ontario Lake water, NWTMDA-54.4). The method was successfully applied to the analysis of various natural water samples. The adsorption capacities of the modified silica gel for Cu(II), Ni(II), Cd(II) and Zn(II) ions were determined and found to be 0.332, 0.261, 0.130 and 0.375?mmol g?1, respectively.  相似文献

A rapid and sensitive method for quantifying parthenolide in feverfew herb (Tanacetum parthenium) was developed that is significantly faster than those reported in the literature. The extraction system consisted of acetonitrile/water (90:10, v/v) in a bottle with stirring for 30 min. Both Soxhlet and bottle-stirring extractions were studied. Samples were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography with a Cosmosil C18-AR column (150 x 4.6 mm, 5 microm, 120 A). The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile/water (55:45, v/v) with a flow rate of 1.5 mL/min and UV detection at 210 nm. Analysis time was 6 min, with a detection limit of 0.10 ng on column. The calibration curve was linear over a range of 0.160-850 microg/mL parthenolide with R(2) = 0.9999. Replicate tests indicated good reproducibility of the method with an RSD% = 0.88 (n = 10). Spike recovery of parthenolide was found to be 99.3% with an RSD% = 1.6 (n = 6).  相似文献

A new furostanol pentaoligoside and spirostanol tetraoligoside were isolated for the first time from yam tubers (Dioscorea pseudojaponica Yamamoto) from Taiwan, together with four known yam saponins, methyl protodioscin, methyl protogracillin, dioscin, and gracillin. Their structures were characterized as 26-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-22alpha-methoxyl-(25R)-furost-5-en-3beta,26-diol, 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-O-([alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)]-O-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)])-beta-D-glucopyranoside, and (25R)-spirost-5-en-3beta-ol 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-O-([alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)]-O-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)])-beta-D-glucopyranoside. The structural identification was performed using LC-MS and 1H and 13C NMR. The methanol extract of yam tubers was fractionated by XAD-2 column chromatography using a methanol/water gradient elution system to yield furostanol and spirostanol glycoside fractions. Preparative high-performance liquid chromatography, employing a C18 column and a mobile phase of methanol/water (69:31, v/v), was used to separate each furostanol glycoside, whereas a mobile phase of methanol/water (79:21, v/v) was used to resolve the individual spirostanol glycosides. The conversions from steroid saponins to diosgenin after acid hydrolysis were around 68 and 90% for furostanol and spirostanol glycosides, respectively.  相似文献

A rapid method is described for extraction and cleanup of raw and processed milk for determination of aflatoxins M1 and M2 by using a C18 Sep-Pak/silica gel cleanup column combination. Aflatoxins are separated by normal phase liquid chromatography and their concentrations are determined by fluorescence detection in a silica gel-packed flow cell. Recoveries ranged from 99 to 103% with coefficients of variation less than 2% for M1 levels of 0.117-1.17 ng/mL added to raw milk. Similar recoveries were obtained for M2. The coefficient of variation for analysis of 5 subsamples of naturally contaminated milk was less than 1%. Agreement with the official method is satisfactory. Each sample requires less than 25 mL solvent and 10 min actual handling time. Sample chromatograms show no interferences in the M1-M2 elution region and no late-eluting peaks, which permits spacing injections at 13-20 min intervals. Aflatoxin levels as low as 0.03 ppb may be determined by this procedure. Extracts have also been analyzed by thin layer chromatography.  相似文献

High pressure liquid chromatographic determination of aflatoxins in corn.   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
A high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method is proposed for determining aflatoxins in corn. The sample is extracted with methanol-10% NaCl (4 + 1), pigments are precipitated with zinc acetate, and the extract is cleaned up on a small (2 g) silica gel column. Aflatoxins in the purified extract are resolved by normal phase HPLC on a microparticulate (10 micrometer) silica gel column with water-saturated chloroform-cyclohexane, acetonitrile solvent, and detected by fluorescence on a silica gel-packed flowcell. The method was compared with chloroform-water extraction of the official CB method on 15 samples of contaminated corn. In 5 of the 6 samples containing aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, and G2, methanol-10% NaCl extracted more aflatoxin than did cloroform-water, as measured both by HPLC and by thin layer chromatography. In samples containing only B1 and B2, the 2 extraction solvents were virtually equivalent. Agreement was good between HPLC and TLC for each extraction solvent. Average recovery of aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, and G2 added to yellow cornmeal at 3 levels was greater than 90%.  相似文献
