Different combinations of cations (imidazolium, pyridinium, pyrrolidinium, phosphonium, and ammonium) and anions (basic anions, sulfate, phosphate, and borate) were studied based on the COSMO volume and quantum chemical parameters such as highest occupied molecular orbital/lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO/LUMO) energies, HOMO-LUMO energy gap, global hardness and softness, electronegativity, electrophilicity index, and chemical potential using the density functional theory (DFT) method. Further, the sigma profile and sigma potential for the selected cations and anions were generated using a COSMO-RS model. The activity coefficient at infinite dilution was also studied for the butanol-water system to find a greater degree of nonideality. A feasible entrainer for the azeotrope breaker for a butanol-water system is proposed.

Countercurrent chromatography (CCC) is an efficient technique for purifying bioactive natural compounds, but selecting the solvent system can be a time-consuming and crucial process for successful separation. This paper discussed the HPLC-assisted mathematical prediction method for the n-hexane/alcohol solvents/water (HAWat) and ethyl acetate/n-butanol/water (EBuWat) systems and designed an intelligent online selection system to simplify the separation process. First, the applicable rage of HAWat and EBuWat solvent systems were quantified by the methanol concentration at the column inlet when template molecules peak in a HPLC analysis (B%).

The aim of this study was to develop an alternative strategy to sufficiently increase the lipophilicity of anionic model macromolecules (MM) without the use of cationic counterions. Enoxaparin (ENO), insulin (INS) and poly-L-glutamic acid (PLG) were ion paired with anionic surfactants (sodium decanoate (DEC), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), sodium stearate (SS) and sodium octadecyl sulfate (SOS)), mediated by divalent cations such as magnesium, calcium and zinc. Complexes were evaluated regarding their precipitation efficiency and logD.

The process of counter-current chromatography (CCC) separation for natural products typically necessitates the use of multiple solvent systems to accommodate constituents with a wide range of polarities. However, the incompatibility between these different solvent systems often results in unsuccessful online 2D successive separations. In this study, a 2D CCC system was developed, featuring an interface for online-storage, dilution, and mixing.

Introduction: Astragaloside IV (AS-IV) is an index for the quality evaluation of the traditional Chinese medicine Astragalus and an important material basis for Astragalus to exert its medicinal effects, and it is difficult to obtain a single AS-IV by ordinary separation methods.
Objective: To find a new isolation method that can prepare AS-IV quickly and efficiently.
Methodology: AS-IV was isolated from Astragalus membranaceus extract by high-speed countercurrent chromatography using a two-phase solvent system consisting of ethyl acetate/n-butanol/water (4.
