[Methods and techniques of capillary electrophoresis for drug screening].

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) shows enormous potential for application in new drug research and development. Because of the aqueous medium employed as the running buffer in CE, drug screening can be carried out in an environment similar to that in physiological testing media. Drug screening methods based on CE are different from other instrumental measurements in vitro.

Study on improvement of chiral separation of capillary electrophoresis based on cyclodextrin by deep eutectic solvents.

For the first time, the mechanism of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) improving chiral separation by capillary electrophoresis has been studied. The capillary electrophoresis chiral separation has been improved by using DESs as the auxiliary additive. Taking tropicamide, homatropine hydrochloride, ofloxacin, atenolol and propranolol hydrochloride as model chiral separation targets and cyclodextrin (CD) as the chiral selector, and the effects of DESs on the chiral separation resolution were investigated on the basis of optimized conditions.

A SPE Method with Two MIPs in Two Steps for Improving the Selectivity of MIPs.

Molecular imprinted polymers (MIPs) have been widely applied in the separation of compounds in complex matrixes due to the high selectivity for molecular recognition. However, MIPs not only adsorb the targeted molecule but also adsorb structurally similar analogues, which leads to some loss of selectivity. In this work, for improvement of selectivity of MIPs, a novel solid-phase extraction method with two MIPs in two steps (TMIPs-TSPE) was established.
