In recent years increasing interest was drawn towards ionic liquids in analytical separation science, such as capillary electrophoresis. Ionic liquids combining tetrabutylammonium cations with chiral amino acid based anions were prepared and investigated as capillary electrophoresis background electrolyte additives for the enantioseparation of ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and methylephedrine isomers. For the optimization of buffer pH and ionic liquid concentration a design of experiments approach was performed. The best results for the separation of all enantiomers were achieved using 125mmol/L tetrabutylammonium l-argininate in a 75mmol/L phosphate buffer pH 1.5 containing 30mmol/L β-cyclodextrin.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and a leading cause of senile dementia. Accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) in the brains causes chronic neuroinflammation, synaptic loss, and neurovascular damage, which is thought to initiate decades-long AD pathogenesis. Recent clinical trials for anti-Aβ immunotherapy highlights the utility of biomarkers that faithfully reflect Aβ-related brain pathology to diagnose AD at the preclinical stage, to predict the onset and progression of the disease, and to assess the therapeutic efficacy of drugs.

Enantioseparation and enantiorecognition are crucial in the pharmaceutical analysis of chiral substances, impacting safety, efficacy, and regulatory compliance. Enantioseparation refers to the process of separating enantiomers from a mixture, typically achieved through chromatography techniques like HPLC and SFC. In contrast, enantiorecognition involves the identification of enantiomers based on their interaction with a chiral selector without the need for separation.

In this work, we present the synthesis and application of fluorescent rhodamine B hydrazide for the derivatization of simple oligosaccharides and complex glycans using a hydrazone formation chemistry approach. The labeling conditions and the experimental setup of CE/LIF were optimized by analyzing oligosaccharide standards. The CE/LIF separations were performed in polybrene-coated capillaries eliminating the need for the purification step after derivatization.

Objective: To analyze the application value of MCV, MCH and HbA in screening for thalassemia in the population of childbearing age in Quanzhou area, and to determine the optimal screening cut-off value of relevant indicators in this area.

Methods: 2 725 couples of childbearing age were included in the study and underwent routine blood test, capillary hemoglobin electrophoresis, and α and β thalassemia gene test. Statistical methods were used to analyze the distribution of thalassemia genotypes, and compare the performance of MCV, MCH, and HbA in screening various types of thalassemia.

Imaged capillary isoelectric focusing was successfully applied for separating an in-house synthesized closely related peptide pair, that is, a linear 12-mer (Rp5-L) and its cyclic 15-mer variant (Rp5-C). Rp5-L represents a mimotope, that is, an epitope mimicking peptide, of the CD20 antigen, which is over-expressed in B-cell-related tumors. Peptide identity-including the successful disulfide bond formation in Rp5-C-was confirmed with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry.
