An assay method to quantify ondansetron (OND), granisetron (GRA) and tropisetron (TRO) in goat plasma has been successfully developed and validated. This method procedure for the analysis of OND, GRA and TRO was involved of extracting samples with hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) solid phase extraction (SPE) and determination by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectroscopy. An SPE method for the simultaneous extraction of OND, GRA and TRO with high efficiency and selectivity was developed.

Unbonded silicon oxynitride and silica high-performance liquid chromatography stationary phases have been evaluated and compared for the separation of basic compounds of differing molecular weight, pK , and log D using aqueous/organic mobile phases. The influences of percentage of organic modifier, buffer pH, and concentration in the mobile phase on base retention were investigated on unbonded silicon oxynitride and silica phases. The results confirmed that unbonded silicon oxynitride and silica phases demonstrated excellent separation performance for model basic compounds and both the unbonded phases examined possessed a hydrophobic/adsorption and ion-exchange character.

The retention characteristics of a silicon oxynitride stationary phase for carbohydrate separation were studied in hydrophilic interaction chromatography mode. Four saccharides including mono-, di-, and trisaccharides were employed to investigate the effects of water content and buffer concentration in the mobile phase on hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography retention. For the tested saccharides, the silicon oxynitride column demonstrated excellent performance in terms of separation efficiency, hydrophilicity, and interesting separation selectivity for carbohydrates compared to the bare silica stationary phase.

Silica has been widely used as HPLC column packing material. However, the fact that base can attack the silanol and dissolve the silica embarrasses the utilization of silica stationary phase in high pH mobile phases (pH >8). In our previous research, the use of porous spherical silicon oxynitride (sph-SiON) material from high temperature nitridation of silica microspheres as stationary phase for HPLC has been explored, and the sph-SiON is stable to alkaline mobile phases and demonstrates excellent separation of a variety of polar compounds in hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) mode.

A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was established to determine the Huperzine A in the extract of Huperzia serrata. After extracted by methanol/ water/formic acid (10/90/0.2, v/v/v), the sample was filtered for HPLC analysis.
