Untargeted profiling of Glycyrrhiza glabra extract with comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry using multi-segmented shift gradients in the second dimension: Expanding the metabolic coverage.

Metabolic profiling of Glycyrrhiza glabra using comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography (LC × LC) coupled with photodiode array (PDA) and mass spectrometry (MS) detection is described. The separation was conducted under reversed-phase conditions, using a combination of first dimension ( D) 150 mm microbore cyano column utilising 2.7 μm diameter (d ) particles, and second dimension ( D) 50 mm superficially porous octadecylsilica column with 2.

Impact of Amino Acids on the Isomerization of the Aluminum Tridecamer Al.

The stability of the Keggin polycation ε-Al is monitored by Al NMR and ferron colorimetric assay upon heating aluminum aqueous solutions containing different amino acids with overall positive, negative, or no charge at pH 4.2. A focus on the effect of the amino acids on the isomerization process from ε- to δ-Al is made, compared and discussed as a function of the type of organic additive.
