Enantioseparation of chiral sulfoxides and sulfinate esters by capillary electrophoresis.

Forty-one chiral sulfoxides and sulfinate esters were separated using sulfated beta-cyclodextrin and carboxymethyl beta-cyclodextrin as chiral selectors. Binding constants of some analytes to both chiral selectors were measured in order to examine and help explain the observed migration behavior and enantioselectivity trends. Overall, sulfated beta-cyclodextrin separated a greater number of compounds, and had better separating capabilities than did carboxymethyl beta-cyclodextrin for these analytes. This was true even though all of the analytes showed much stronger binding to carboxymethyl beta-cyclodextrin than to sulfated beta-cyclodextrin. General procedures to optimize the separation, by varying pH, selector concentration, and organic modifier concentration were examined and discussed. Chiral selector concentration had the greatest effect on enantioseparation, with higher concentrations of selector giving better peak-to-peak separations. Organic modifier had an adverse affect on resolution, with increasing amounts giving lower mobility differences. Lastly, pH had only a minimal effect on separation.

Some properties of a measure of resolution in gel electrophoresis and capillary zone electrophoresis.

The most commonly used measure of resolution for chromatographic and electrophoretic separations does not take into account the possibility of there being different amounts of each of the molecular species. A modification of a measure of resolution recently suggested by Aldroubi and Garner (BioTechniques 1992, 13, 620-624) can incorporate this effect explicitly. Their criterion for resolution is based on the time to observe a valley of specified magnitude separating two peaks. We examine how this measure depends on different physically relevant parameters that characterize the system.

Analysis of explosives via microchip electrophoresis and conventional capillary electrophoresis: a review.

The upsurge in terrorist activity has generated tremendous demand for innovative tools capable of detecting major industrial, military, and home-made (improvised) explosives. Fast, sensitive, and reliable detection of explosives in the field is a very important issue in nowadays. CE, especially in its miniaturized format (lab-on-a-chip), offers great possibilities to create portable, field deployable, rapidly responding, and potentially disposable devices, allowing security forces to make the important decisions regarding the safety of civilians. This article overviews the microchip and conventional capillary electrophoretic techniques for analysis of a wide variety of explosive compounds and mixtures.
