Study of β-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes with volatile molecules geraniol and α-terpineol enantiomers in solid state and in solution

© 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Geraniol and α-terpineol are insoluble in water volatile compounds. α-Terpineol is a potentially important agent for medical applications. Formation of molecular complexes with β-cyclodextrin would lead to the increase of water solubility and bioavailability. β-Cyclodextrin forms 2:2 inclusion complexes with both enantiomers of α-terpineol and their precursor geraniol. Solid state complexes are thoroughly characterized by single X-ray crystallography and their stability over vast range of temperatures is proven by TG analysis. Intermolecular host-guest, host-host and guest-guest interactions give good insight into the nature of formed inclusion complexes. Stability constants of the complexes in solution are determined by HPLC

Micellar electrokinetic chromatography with bile salts for separation of flavanone diastereomers

Sodium cholate and sodium deoxycholate were applied in the micellar electrokinetic chromatography technique as separating agents for the diastereomers of flavanone glycosides. The effects of the organic solvent buffer modifier, bile salt type and concentration were evaluated for enhancing distereomer separation. The critical micelle concentration of sodium cholate and sodium deoxycholate in the applied running buffer was determined. The bi nding constants of flavanone glycosides to bile salts micelle were estimated. The elaborated analytical method was used to analyse the flavanone fraction of bitter orange (Citrus aurantium) and grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) juice.Cholan sodu i deoksycholan sodu zostały zastosowane w technice micelarnej elektrokinetycznej chromatografii cieczowej jako czynnik rozdzielający diastereomery glikozydów flawanonów. Oceniono wpływ rozpuszczalnika organicznego jako modyfikatora buforu, typu soli żółciowej oraz jej stężenia na wzmocnienie rozdzielenia diastereomerów. Wyznaczono krytyczne stężenie micelarne cholanu sodu i deoksycholanu sodu w zastosowanym buforze rozdzielającym. Oszacowano stałe trwałości glikozydów flawanonów z micelami soli żółciowych. Opracowana metoda została wykorzystana do analizy frakcji flawanonowej w soku gorzkiej pomarańczy (Citrus aurantium) i grejfruta (Citrus paradise)

Bile acid sodium salts as chiral modifiers of mobile phase in high performance liquid chromatography

W pracy opisano zastosowanie cholanu sodu i deoksycholanu sodu, jako modyfikatorów fazy ruchomej w wysokosprawnej chromatografii cieczowej. Własności enancjoseparacyjne micelarnych faz chiralnych dla optycznie czynnych pochodnych binaftyli: fosforanu- 1,1’- -binaftylo-2,2’-diylu oraz 1,1’-binaftylo-2,2’-diolu. Zbadano proces adsorpcji cholanu i deoksycholanu sodu na fazie C18. Zbadano wpływ stężenia i typu surfaktantu, jak również rodzaj i stężenie dodatku organicznego (n-alkohol) na proces rozpoznania chiralnego przez badane układy micelarne.In the paper the application of sodium cholate and sodium deoxycholate as modifiers of mobile phase in high performance liquid chromatography was described. Enantioseparation properties of micellar chiral phases were studied for optically active derivatives of binaphthyls: 1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diyl hydrogenphosphate and 1,1'-binaphthalene-2,2'-diol. The process of adsorption of sodium cholate and sodium deoxycholate on C18 phase was studied. The influence of type and concentration of surfactant as well as type and concentration of organic additive (n-alcohol) on process of chiral recognition was investigated. It has been found that enantiorecognition of bile salts micelle increase with the increase of the chain length of n-alcohol

Platinum uptake by mustard (Sinapis alba L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) plants

The ability of platinum uptake by hydroponically cultivated plants - Indian mustard (Sinapis alba L.) and Anawa maize (Zea mays L.) - was investigated. The efficiency of the transport of platinum compounds from the roots to above ground organs was estimated. For platinum determination in plant samples, digested in closed system with microwave energy, very sensitive analytical methods were applied - adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV) and mass spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). For validation of the obtained results the recovery of platinum was examined. The accumulation factors (AF) of platinum: more then 800 and 400 for roots of Indian mustard and Anawa maize, respectively and about 90 and 30 for above ground organs of both species were found

Platinum bioaccumulation by mustard plants (Sinapis alba L.)

The ability of hydroponically cultivated Indian mustard plants (Sinapis alba L.) to accumulate platinum was investigated. The Pt-bioaccumulation in leaves, stem and shoots of plants growing for 2 and 4 weeks at Pt-concentration of 50 and 500 ěg/L was compared. The relation between dry and fresh weight was also estimated. Adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV) and mass spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS) were applied for determination of Pt. Increasing Pt-concentration from 50 to 500 ěg/L in the medium causes: (1) reduction of the root tissue hydration level at unchanged modification in aboveground parts of the plants and (2) decrease of the Pt transfer factor (TF) for roots and increase for leaves and stem. Duration of the culture influenced on Pt-accumulation in roots and in aboveground organs of mustard plants. Transfer factor for Pt between 560 and 1600 makes Indian mustard plants one at Pt-hyperaccumulators. Distribution of Pt-bioaccumulation in the plant organs may be useful for biomonitoring of platinum in the environment
