    Notes: Summary A modified valve arrangement for zone-electrophoretic sample treatment (ZEST)-which is coupled on-line with column liquid chromatography — is used to pretreat biological (plasma) samples. Carry-over of plasma proteins depends on the pH of the electrophoresis buffer. The determination of propranolol, metoprolol, cromolyn and salicylic acid demonstrates that both basic and acidic analytes can be isolated from the plasma matrix with high selectivity. Analogous piperazines, with different protein binding properties, were used to study the influence of protein binding on the recovery. It is shown that high protein can cause a decreased recovery.

    Notes: Summary An on-line trace-enrichment system, using a bifunctional membrane extraction-disk cartridge, has been combined with a column liquid chromatography separation for the simultaneous determination of basic, neutral and acidic pollutants in surface water. The enrichment device consisted of a specially constructed holder containing both C-18 and cation-exchange disks. The holder can contain up to 25 disks of 0.5 mm thickness and 4.6 mm diameter. Before trace enrichment of 20 ml of surface water (pH 3.0), calcium ions were removed from the sample by means of an oxalic acid precipitation. Desorption of the cartridge was at elevated temperature using reversed-phase gradient elution; detection was performed with a diode-array UV absorbance detector. The detection limits for the test compounds in surface water are typically 0.5–2 μg/l; the calibration graphs are linear from the lower limit of determination up to 50 μg/l.

    Notes: Summary A two-dimensional, column liquid chromatographic system is used for the determination of the D- and L-enantiomers of amino acids in biological samples. Separation of the amino acids is first on ion-exchange column by gradient elution with a sodium citratesodium chloride buffer. Enantioseparation is by subsequent injection of 3 μl heart-cuts of the individual amino acids onto a second column with a chiral crown ether stationary phase. Finally, fluorescence detection is after post-column labelling of the amino acids using ano-phthalaldehyde-2-mercaptoethanol reagent solution. The high separation power and selectivity of the system allow processing of complex samples with hardly any additional treatment and the determination of small quantities of D-amino acids in the presence of excess L-form. Applicability of the system is illustrated by the determination of D- and L-aspartate, serine, glutamate and alanine in various complex biological samples, such as protein hydrolysates, urine and biotechnological and food samples. Data are given on detectability, repeatability and linearity.

    Notes: Summary Commercially available equipment from two manufacturers served to set up an automated system for the precolumn phase-transfer-catalyzed dansylation of phenolic steroids, using ethynyl estradiol (EE) and estradiol (E) as model compounds. Using different mixing techniques, the on-line determination of EE and E in 200μl untreated urine samples was achieved at a rate of 3–8 analyses per hour. Detection limits were calculated to be 3–5 ng/ml. Calibration curves in urine were linear over two orders of magnitude with r=0.999 (n=5) for EE and r=0.999 (n=6) for E. The repeatability of the determination of EE in urine (1μg/ml) was 3.9% (RSD; n=20) and of E (1.5μl/ml) 3.8% (RDS; n=10). The use of plasma instead of urine in the on-line procedures was not possible due to rapid formation of emulsions, but E and EE were determined in 100μl plasma samples using a mild off-line mixing procedure in 10min. Detection limits were calculated to be ca 10ng/ml. A reaction detector, based on a solvent-segmented system, was developed for the on-line post-column dansylation of phenols and was coupled with a reversed-phase LC system. The highly selective system showed excellent linearity over at least two orders of magnitude with r=0.9999 (n=6) for both phenol and 2,5-dimethylphenol. The reproducibility was good with RSD values of around 2%. Detection limits for loop injections from standard solutions were calculated to be between 4 and 11ng.

    Notes: Summary The design of a new valve arrangement for zone-electrophoretic sample treatment (ZEST) coupled online with high performance liquid chromatography is described. Characteristics of this valve, such as the internal heat development as a function of the current, have been investigated. By using quinidine and desipramine as model compounds it is shown that charged compounds can be isolated from biological samples, in about 15 min, with high selectivity. The carry-over of proteins to the analytical column has been compared with the carry-over using a pre-column sample clean-up method. The detection limits of quinidine and hydroquinidine (50 ng/ml), using zone-electrophoretic sample treatment coupled with column liquid chromatography, are in the same range as with direct injections using pre-columns.

    Notes: Summary An automated liquid chromatographic system is described using immunoaffinity precolumns for sample pretreatment. The system consists of a column-switching unit allowing preconcentration from a large volume of sample (e.g. 15 ml of urine) onto an immunoaffinity precolumn (containing polyclonal antibodies immobilized on Sepharose). After sorption, the analytes are desorbed by a mixture of two cross-reacting solutes, followed by reconcentration on a C-18-bonded silica precolumn, and then separation on a C-18-bonded silica analytical column. Using oestrogen steroids as model compounds and UV absorbance detection, the minimum detectable concentration is ca. 200 ng/l with a repeatability of 6–8%. The total analysis time is 45 min which allows the unattended analysis of 30 samples per day. The features of the sample pretreatment method, especially of the immunoselective desorption, are evaluated and the general applicability of the system is discussed.

    Notes: Summary An isocratic column liquid chromatographic system with UV absorbance detection at 230 nm has been developed for the rapid trace-level determination of a large number of polar pollutants in water. The systems contains two precolumns, in series, which are packed with a styrenedivinylbenzene (PLRP-S) polymer. The second precolumn is also loaded with sodium dodecylsulphate before use. Each precolumn is combined with a PLRP-S analytical column, and aqueous acetonitrile mixtures (pH 3) are used for the separation of neutral as well as acidic and basic pollutants. With 10-ml water samples the detection limits for all analytes, in tap water, are in the low to sub μg/l range. Relevant analytical data are reported and the advantage of using a dodecylsulphate-loaded precolumn over a cation-exchange precolumn is discussed.

    Notes: Summary A practical liquid chromatographic early-warning system for polar pollutants in water ought to have detection limits at a level below a microgram per litre. Using ultraviolet absorbance detection this normally necessitates trace enrichment of the samples. In this study ten different sorbents have been tested with respect to their enrichment capacity. The hydrophobic polymeric PLRP-S material, in combination with a C-18 modified analytical column, proved to be the best choice. The influence of humic substances, present in surface water, was also studied. Lowering of the sample pH, resulted in a significant increase in the interferences due to the humic substances.

    Notes: Summary Trace enrichment on a precolumn packed with copolymer material, coupled on-line with reversed-phase, column liquid chromatography-particle beammass spectrometry (RPLC-PB-MS) has been used for both target and non-target analysis of water samples. RPLC is carried out on a C-18-bonded silica column using a linear acetonitrile-0.1 M ammonium acetate gradient. Using optimised PB-MS conditions and 100–250 ml water samples, the detection limits for several phenylureas are in the 0.03–0.05 μg l−1 range using the full-scan mode; repeatability is good and the LC-PB-MS system is robust. Several surface and drinking water samples have been analysed and low levels of various environmental contaminants have been identified using electron impact mass spectra. Applying chemical ionisation with methane as reagent gas in both the positive and negative mode in conjunction with PB-MS provides relevant confirmatory information.

    Notes: Summary A procedure is described for the (non-target) screening of hetero-atom-containing compounds in tap and waste water by correlating data obtained by gas chromatography (GC) using atomic emission (AED) and mass selective (MS) detection. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) was coupled on-line to both GC systems to enable the determination of microcontaminants at the 0.02–1 μg L−1 level in 7–50 mL of aqueous sample. The screening was limited to compounds present in at least one heteroatom-selective GC-AED trace above a predetermined concentration level. These compounds were identified by their partial formulae (AED) and the corresponding mass spectra, which were obtained from the GC-MS chromatogram via the retention index concept. The potential of the approach was demonstrated by the identification of target compounds as well as all unknowns present in tap and waste water above the predetermined threshold of 0.05 μg L−1 (tap water) or 0.5 μg L−1 (waste water).
