Abstract
Membrane proteins (MPs), despite being critically important drug targets for the pharmaceutical industry, are difficult to study due to challenges in obtaining high yields of functional protein. Most current extraction efforts use specialized non-ionic detergents to solubilize and stabilize MPs, with MPs being concentrated by ultrafiltration (UF). However, many detergents are retained during the UF step, which can destabilize MPs and/or interfere with their characterization. Here, we studied the influence of detergent selection on the extraction and UF-based concentration of biomedically-relevant MPs, the light-driven sodium and chloride transporters, KR2 and halorhodopsin (pHR) which are also model proteins for more complex mammalian rhodopsins. We also designed a flat-bottomed centrifugal filter that can concentrate MPs with enhanced removal of free detergents by promoting concentration polarization (CP). We tested the performance of this new filter using four commonly employed MP detergents, octyl-β-D maltoside (OM), decyl-β-D maltoside (DM), dodecyl-β-D maltoside (DDM) and octyl-β-D glucoside (OG), over a range of detergent and salt concentrations. Detergent passage is significantly higher for the flat-bottomed filter achieving up to 2-fold greater sieving of detergent in DM-solubilized pHR system due to the high degree of CP. We observe more efficient, up to 5-fold higher extraction of KR2 in the presence of a longer 12-carbon alkyl chain detergent, DDM compared to a shorter 8-carbon detergent, OM. Assuming complete binding and elution of the extracted protein, DDM-based extraction of KR2 could lead to a potential 7-fold improvement in purification yields compared to conventional methods which yield ∼1 mg MP per liter of cell culture. However, the longer chain detergents like DDM form larger micelles that are difficult to remove by UF. Thus, there exists a trade-off between choosing a detergent that will enable efficient extraction of MP while showing easier removal during subsequent UF. The extraction efficiency and UF-based separation of detergent micelles provide insights for other applications involving detergent-mediated separation/extraction.

Quality by Design approach in the development of a solvent-modified micellar electrokinetic chromatography method: finding the design space for the determination of amitriptyline and its impurities. Anal Chim Acta 2013; 802:113-24.

Abstract
A solvent-modified micellar electrokinetic chromatography method was set up for the simultaneous determination of the tricyclic antidepressant amitriptyline (AMI) and its main impurities. The method was developed following Quality by Design (QbD) principles according to ICH Guideline Q8(R2). QbD approach made it possible to find the design space (DS), where quality was assured. After a scouting phase, aimed at selecting a suitable capillary electrophoresis pseudostationary phase, risk assessment tools were employed to define the critical process parameters (CPPs) to be considered in a screening phase (applied voltage, concentration and pH of the background electrolyte, concentration of the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulphate, of the cosurfactant n-butanol and of the organic modifiers acetonitrile and urea). The effects of the seven selected CPPs on critical quality attributes (CQAs), namely resolution values between critical peak pairs and analysis time, were investigated throughout the knowledge space by means of a symmetric screening matrix. Response surface study was then carried out on four selected CPPs by applying a Doehlert Design. Monte-Carlo simulations were performed in order to estimate the probability of meeting the desired specifications on CQAs, and thus to define the DS by means of a risk of failure map. Additional points at the edges of the DS were tested in order to verify the requirements for CQAs to be fulfilled. A control strategy was implemented by defining system suitability tests. The developed method was validated following ICH Guideline Q2(R1), including robustness assessment by Plackett-Burman design, and was applied to the analysis of real samples of amitriptyline coated tablets.

Abstract
We synthesised and used new type of quaternary ammonium salt [S-(-)-2-hydroxymethyl-1,1-dimethylpyrrolidinium tetrafluoroborate] as effective additive to acidic background electrolytes. We used this quaternary ammonium salt as effective agent for capillary zone electrophoresis separation of model mixture of five tricyclic antidepressants (amitriptyline, nortriptyline, imipramine, desipramine and clomipramine) as model analytes. We observed that addition of S-(-)-2-hydroxymethyl-1,1-dimethylpyrrolidinium tetrafluoroborate ([HMDP](+) [BF(4)](-)) to acidic background electrolytes leads to suppression of magnitude of electroosmotic flow (EOF) and gradually change the direction of the EOF. Baseline separation of five TAs was achieved by using of 91.1 mmol L(-1) (20 gL(-1)) of [HMDP](+) [BF(4)](-) in 25 mmol L(-1) sodium phosphate pH 2.5, where electroosmotic mobility was -11.3 x 10(-9) m(2) V(-1) s(-1). We achieved baseline separation of five TAs with using of [HMDP](+) [BF(4)](-) as water solution too. We observed that [HMDP](+) [BF(4)](-) can be used as buffer additive, which offers relatively smaller anodic electroosmotic flow instead of cationic surfactants that are mostly used for genarating of anodic electroosmotic flow in capillary electrophoresis.

Abstract
A non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) method coupled to indirect absorbance detection has been developed for the separation of the three positional isomers of monosulfated fucose. The optimized electrolyte was composed of 12 mM ethanolamine, 2 mM trimesic acid buffer in a methanol-ethanol (1:1, v/v) mixture. As the retained electrolyte entails no separating agent other than the pH buffer, the NACE separation of the positional isomers has been ascribed mainly to selective ion-pairing with the electrolyte counter-ion and the possibility of a selective solvation effect in the alcohol mixture. In the absence of pure isomeric standards, peak identification was completed by MS and NMR spectroscopy and selective enzymatic desulfation. This method should be of interest for the structure elucidation of monosulfated fucose-based polysaccharides and for the screening of sulfoesterase of unknown activity.

Abstract
Capillary electrokinetic separation techniques offer high efficiency and peak capacity, and can be very useful for the analysis of samples containing a large variety of (unknown) compounds. Such samples are frequently met in impurity profiling of drugs (detection of potential impurities in a pharmaceutical substance or product) and in general sample profiling (determination of differences or similarities between samples). In this paper, the potential, merits, and limitations of electrokinetic separation techniques for profiling purposes are evaluated using examples from literature. A distinction is made between impurity profiling, forensic profiling and profiling of natural products, and the application of capillary zone electrophoresis, micellar electrokinetic chromatography, and capillary electrochromatography in these fields is discussed. Attention is devoted to important aspects such as selectivity, resolution enhancement, applicability, detection, and compound confirmation and quantification. The specific properties of the various electrokinetic techniques are discussed and compared with more conventional techniques as liquid chromatography.

Abstract
The use of capillary electrophoresis (CE) for clinically relevant assays is attractive since it often presents many advantages over contemporary methods. The small-diameter tubing that holds the separation medium has led to the development of multicapillary instruments, and simultaneous sample analysis. Furthermore, CE is compatible with a wide range of detectors, including UV-Vis, fluorescence, laser-induced fluorescence, electrochemistry, mass spectrometry, radiometric, and more recently nuclear magnetic resonance, and laser-induced circular dichroism systems. Selection of an appropriate detector can yield highly specific analyte detection with good mass sensitivity. Another attractive feature of CE is the low consumption of sample and reagents. However, it is paradoxical that this advantage also leads to severe limitation, namely poor concentration sensitivity. Often high analyte concentrations are required in order to have injection of sufficient material for detection. In this regard, a series of devices that are broadly termed 'analyte concentrators' have been developed for analyte preconcentration on-line with the CE capillary. These devices have been used primarily for non-specific analyte preconcentration using packing material of the C18 type. Alternatively, the use of very specific antibody-containing cartridges and enzyme-immobilized microreactors have been demonstrated. In the current report, we review the likely impact of the technology of capillary electrophoresis and the role of the CE analyte concentrator-microreactor on the analysis of biomolecules, present on complex matrices, in a clinical laboratory. Specific examples of the direct analysis of physiologically-derived fluids and microdialysates are presented, and a personal view of the future of CE in the clinical environment is given.

Abstract
More than 25 years of developing doping control methods have led to comprehensive screening and confirmation procedures for stimulants, narcotics and beta-blockers. Much of this work has been initiated and/or improved by the late Prof. Dr. Manfred Donike. The methodological approach covered in this overview was applied to doping control procedures during the XXV Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain, in 1992 and the XVII Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway, in 1994. Urine samples are screened through a combination of two analytical methods that are complementary: (a) gas chromatographic analysis of the parent compound and unconjugated metabolites, following single-step sample extraction and detection by a nitrogen-specific detector based on a retention index identification system and (b) gas chromatographic analysis including also conjugated drugs and metabolites after hydrolysis, solid-phase extraction, derivatisation and mass spectrometric detection. Confirmation and identification is always performed by gas chromatographic separation and full scan mass spectrometric detection. These methods facilitate the rapid screening and confirmation of more than 100 stimulants, narcotic analgesics and beta-blockers in urine for at least 24 h after the intake of a pharmaceutical dose. Application of the methods ensures high quality standards for the unequivocal identification of doping agents as well as a rapid turnaround time for sample analyses.
