RESUMO
This comprehensive review explores the utilization of chiral stationary phases (CSPs) in the context of single-column simultaneous chiral-achiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation methods. While CSPs have traditionally been pivotal for enantioselective drug analysis, contemporary CSPs often exhibit notable chemoselective properties. Consequently, there is a discernible trend towards the development of methodologies that enable simultaneous enantio- and chemoselective separations utilizing a single CSP-based chromatographic column. This review provides an exhaustive overview of reported HPLC methods in this domain, with a focus on four major CSP types: cyclodextrin-, glycopeptide antibiotic-, protein-, and polysaccharide-based CSPs. This article delves into the diverse applications of CSPs, encompassing various chromatographic modes such as normal phase (NP), reverse phase (RP), and polar organic (PO). This review critically discusses method development, emphasizing the additional chemoselective separation mechanisms of CSPs. It also explores possibilities for method optimization and development, concluding with future perspectives on this evolving field. Despite the inherent challenges in understanding the retention mechanisms involved in chemoselective separations, this review highlights promising trends and anticipates a growing number of simultaneous enantio- and chemoselective methods in pharmaceutical analyses, pharmacokinetic studies, and environmental sample determinations.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a new kind of crystalline porous materials composed of organic molecules connected by covalent bonds, processes the characteristics of low density, large specific surface area, adjustable pore size and structure, and easy to functionalize, which have been widely used in the field of membrane separation technology. Recently, there are more and more researches focusing on the preparation methods, separation application, and mechanism of COF membranes, which need to be further summarized and compared. In this review, we primarily summarized several conventional preparation methods, such as two-phase interfacial polymerization, in-situ growth on substrate, unidirectional diffusion method, layer-by-layer assembly method, mixed matrix membranes, and so on. The advantages and disadvantages of each method are briefly summarized. The application potential of COF membrane in liquid separation are introduced from four aspects: dyeing wastewater treatment, heavy metal removal, seawater desalination and oil-water separation. Then, the mechanisms including pore structure, hydrophilic/hydrophobic, electrostatic repulsion/attraction and Donnan effect are introduced. For the efficient removal of different kind of pollutions, researchers can select different ligands to construct membranes with specific pore size, hydrophily, salt or organic rejection ability and functional group. The ideas for the design and preparation of COF membranes are introduced. Finally, the future direction and challenges of the next generation of COF membranes in the field of separation are prospected.

Porous materials that could recognize specific molecules from complex mixtures are of great potential in improving the current energy-intensive multistep separation processes. However, due to the highly similar structures and properties of the mixtures, the design of desired porous materials remains challenging. Herein, a sulfonate-functionalized metal-organic framework ZU-609 with suitable pore size and pore chemistry is designed for 1,3-butadiene (C4H6) purification from complex C4 mixtures. The sulfonate anions decorated in the channel achieve selective recognition of C4H6 from other C4 olefins with subtle polarity differences through C-Hâ â â O-S interactions, affording recorded C4H6/trans-2-C4H8 selectivity (4.4). Meanwhile, the shrunken mouth of the channel with a suitable pore size (4.6â Å) exhibits exclusion effect to the larger molecules cis-2-C4H8, iso-C4H8, n-C4H10 and iso-C4H10. Benefiting from the moderate C4 olefins binding affinity exhibited by sulfonate anions, the adsorbed C4H6 could be easily regenerated near ambient conditions. Polymer-grade 1,3-butadiene (99.5 %) is firstly obtained from 7-component C4 mixtures via one adsorption-desorption cycle. The work demonstrates the great potential of synergistic recognition of size-sieving and thermodynamically equilibrium in dealing with complex mixtures.
RESUMO
In this study, bipolar membrane electrodialysis was proposed to directly convert L-ornithine monohydrochloride to L-ornithine. The stack configuration was optimized in the BP-A (BP, bipolar membrane; A, anion exchange membrane) configuration with the Cl- ion migration through the anion exchange membrane rather than the BP-A-C (C, cation exchange membrane) and the BP-C configurations with the L-ornithine+ ion migration through the cation exchange membrane. Both the conversion ratio and current efficiency follow BP-A > BP-A-C > BP-C, and the energy consumption follows BP-A < BP-A-C < BP-C. Additionally, the voltage drop across the membrane stack (two repeating units) and the feed concentration were optimized as 7.5 V and 0.50 mol/L, respectively, due to the low value of the sum of H+ ions leakage (from the acid compartment to the base compartment) and OH- ions migration (from the base compartment to the acid compartment) through the anion exchange membrane. As a result, high conversion ratio (96.1%), high current efficiency (95.5%) and low energy consumption (0.31 kWh/kg L-ornithine) can be achieved. Therefore, bipolar membrane electrodialysis is an efficient, low energy consumption and environmentally friendly method to directly convert L-ornithine monohydrochloride to L-ornithine.

The cross-linked γ-cyclodextrin metal-organic framework (CL-CD-MOF) was synthesized by crosslinking γ-cyclodextrin metal-organic framework (γ-CD-MOF) with diphenyl carbonate to separate benzene series and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The separation ability of the CL-CD-MOF packed column was assessed in both reverse-phase (RP-) and normal-phase (NP-) modes. The retention mechanisms of these compounds were discussed and confirmed by combining molecular simulations in detail. It was found that baseline separation could be obtained in RP-HPLC mode and it was superior to commercial C18 column in separating xylene isomers. The interaction between CL-CD-MOF and analytes, such as dipole-dipole interaction, π-electron transfer interaction, hydrophobic interaction, and van der Waals force, may dominate the chromatographic separation, and CL-CD-MOF column had a certain shape recognition ability. In addition, the composition of the mobile phase also had a crucial effect. Moreover, the column demonstrated satisfactory stability and repeatability (the relative standard deviations of retention time, peak height, peak area, and half peak width for six replicate separations of the tested analytes were within the ranges 0.17-1.1%, 0.96-1.9%, 0.23-1.7%, and 0.32-1.9%, respectively) and there was no significant change in the separation efficiency for at least 3 years of use. Thermodynamic characteristics indicated that the process of separations on the CL-CD-MOF column was both negative enthalpy change (ΔH) and entropy change (ΔS) controlled. The excellent performance made CL-CD-MOF a promising HPLC stationary phase material for separation and determination of benzene series and PAHs.

We investigated the spatial phase separation of the two components forming a bosonic mixture distributed in a four-well lattice with a ring geometry. We studied the ground state of this system, described by means of a binary Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian, by implementing a well-known coherent-state picture which allowed us to find the semi-classical equations determining the distribution of boson components in the ring lattice. Their fully analytic solutions, in the limit of large boson numbers, provide the boson populations at each well as a function of the interspecies interaction and of other significant model parameters, while allowing to reconstruct the non-trivial architecture of the ground-state four-well phase diagram. The comparison with the L-well (L=2,3) phase diagrams highlights how increasing the number of wells considerably modifies the phase diagram structure and the transition mechanism from the full-mixing to the full-demixing phase controlled by the interspecies interaction. Despite the fact that the phase diagrams for L=2,3,4 share various general properties, we show that, unlike attractive binary mixtures, repulsive mixtures do not feature a transition mechanism which can be extended to an arbitrary lattice of size L.
RESUMO
Separation of DNA by length using CGE is a mature field. Separation of DNA by sequence, in contrast, is a more difficult problem. Existing techniques generally rely upon changes in intrinsic or induced differences in conformation. Previous work in our group showed that sets of ssDNA of the same length differing in sequence by as little as a single base could be separated by CZE using simple buffers at high ionic strength. Here, we explore the basis of the separation using circular dichroism spectroscopy, fluorescence anisotropy, and small angle X-ray scattering. The results reveal sequence-dependent differences among the same length strands, but the trends in the differences are not correlated to the migration order of the strands in the CZE separation. They also indicate that the separation is based on intrinsic differences among the strands that do not change with increasing ionic strength; rather, increasing ionic strength has a greater effect on electroosmotic mobility in the normal direction than on electrophoretic mobility of the strands in the reverse direction. This increases the migration time of the strands in the normal direction, allowing more time for the same-length strands to be teased apart based on very small differences in the intrinsic properties of the strands of different sequence. Regression analysis was used to model the intrinsic differences among DNA strands in order to gain insight into the relationship between mobility and sequence that underlies the separation.

A ß-Cyclodextrin covalent organic framework (ß-CD COF) was successfully prepared under ambient temperature with a mild chemistry strategy from heptakis(6-amino-6-deoxy)-ß-cyclodextrin and terephthalaldehyde. It was embedded into the poly[(glycidyl methacrylate)-co-(ethylene dimethacrylate)] [poly(GMA-co-EDMA)] monolith and served as the ß-CD COF material-incorporated monolith. The synthetic materials were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray mapping analysis, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm. The ß-CD COF material-incorporated monolith achieved baseline separation in capillary electrochromatographic separation of three amides, three amino acids, three nucleosides, four aromatic acids, and three positional isomers (with resolution values of three amides, 1.75 and 1.54; three amino acids, 5.24 and 1.75; three nucleosides, 2.56 and 1.77; four aromatic acids, 6.96, 2.74, and 1.64; three positional isomers, 1.61 and 1.50). In comparison with the original monolith, the ß-CD COF material-incorporated monolith shows significantly enhanced resolution for mixed molecules. The effect of pH and concentration of buffer and applied voltage were discussed in detail. The fabricated monolith showed good stability and reproducibility (relative standard deviation (RSD) < 6.9%). Molecular modeling illuminated the interactions between the small molecules and stationary phase, and provided a sufficient theoretical basis for experimental data. Graphical abstract Schematic presentation of the preparation of ß-cyclodextrin covalent organic framework (ß-CD COF) material-incorporated organic polymer monolith for separating the amides, amino acids, nucleosides, aromatic acids, and positional isomers. ß-CD COF materials were synthesized and incorporated into the monolith as the stationary phase. Then, the incorporated monolith was applied in the capillary electrochromatography system for separating small molecules.
RESUMO
The high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a powerful method in the area of stereoisomer separation. In this study, separation of eight bedaquiline analogue diastereomers (compounds 1-8) was first examined on a cellulose tris-(3,5-dichlorophenylcarbamate) chiral stationary phase, ie, Chiralpak IC in the normal phase mode. The influences of organic modifier types, alcohol content, and column temperature on diastereoseparation were evaluated. Under the optimum chromatographic conditions, all the analyte stereoisomers were successfully separated. The experimental results revealed the great influence of analytes' structures on the diastereoseparation with Chiralpak IC. In addition, thermodynamic parameters were calculated by Van't Hoff plots, and correlative chiral recognition mechanisms were discussed further.

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is one of the most frequently detected perfluoroalkyl substances in environmental and human samples. Previous studies have shown that nonracemic PFOS in biological samples can be used as a marker of PFOS exposure sources. In recent years, supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) has emerged as a powerful method to separate chiral compounds. In this study, a method of perfluoro-1-methylheptane sulfonate (1 m-PFOS) enantioseparation by SFC was established. The optimal separation was obtained using a Chiralpak QN-AX column with CO2 /2-propanol (70/30, v/v) as the mobile phase with a flow rate of 1 mL/min, column temperature was 32°C, and BPR pressure was 1800 psi. The resolution (Rs) and retention time were 0.88 and 130 minutes, respectively. This method is more economic and greener than HPLC. Modifier pH and column temperature were determined to be significant factors of SFC chiral separation. Modifier pH is negatively correlated with the retention factors and Rs. Adsorption thermodynamics were used to explain the influence of temperature change, and it was concluded that the transfer of two enantiomers from the mobile phase to the stationary phase is enthalpy-driven. Enantioseparation of 1 m-PFOS by SFC follows the same rules of ion exchange as those for the chiral separation by HPLC.
RESUMO
The capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris), the largest living rodent, probably has a "mucus-trap" colonic separation mechanism. To test this hypothesis, we measured the mean retention time of a solute marker (MRTSolute ), 2 mm (MRT2 mm ), 10 mm (MRT10 mm ), and 20 mm (MRT20 mm ) particle markers and nutrient digestibility in adult captive capybaras (27-52 kg body mass (BM), 2-11 yr). In addition, total gut fill and the selectivity factor (MRTSolute /MRT2 mm ) were calculated, and mean faecal particle size and metabolic fecal nitrogen of captive capybaras were compared to those of free-ranging specimens. Finally, we also measured methane production in one animal. The MRT2 mm (29.2 ± 8.2 hr) was different (p < 0.01) from MRTSolute (37.0 ± 13.1 hr), MRT10 mm (36.5 ± 8.2 hr), and MRT20 mm (35.1 ± 9.6 hr). The selectivity factor (1.26 ± 0.30) was in the range considered typical for a "mucus-trap" colonic separation mechanism. The estimated total gut fill was 1.50 ± 0.37% and 1.73 ± 0.25% of BM calculated from the results of the 2-mm and 10-mm particle markers, respectively. The CH4 emission was 13.7 L/day. Captive capybaras had greater mean fecal particle size (0.44 ± 0.06 vs. 0.29 ± 0.05 mm, p < 0.001) and metabolic fecal nitrogen (65.5 ± 3.91 vs. 46.8 ± 10.5% of fecal nitrogen, p < 0.001) than free-ranging capybaras. Organic matter digestibility decreased less steeply with increasing dietary crude fiber content in capybaras as compared to published data from rabbits or guinea pigs. Accordingly, the digestive physiology of the capybara is characterized by a comparatively high fiber digestibility, with a "mucus-trap" colonic separation mechanism, allowing capybaras to thrive on forage-only diets.

Graphene oxide functionalized silica microspheres (GO@SiO2 ) were synthesized based on condensation reaction between amino from aminosilica particles and carboxyl groups from GO. Reduction of GO@SiO2 with hydrazinium hydroxide generated graphene modified silica particles (G@SiO2 ). GO@SiO2 and G@SiO2 packed capillary columns for capillary electrochromatography were thereafter fabricated by pressure slurry packing with single-particle frits. GO of 0.3 mg/mL in dispersion solution for GO@SiO2 synthesis was considered as a compromise between retaining and column efficiency whereas GO@SiO2 of 20 mg/mL in slurries for column packing was chosen for a homogenous and tight bed. Optimum mobile phases were acquired considering both electroosmotic flow and resolution at an applied voltage of -6 kV as the following: acetonitrile/phosphate buffer (10 mM, pH 7.0), 75:25 (v/v) for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and 50:50 (v/v) for aromatic compounds. A comparison was made between electrochromatographic performances for three PAHs (naphthalene, fluorene and phenanthrene) and three aromatic compounds of various polarities (toluene, aniline and phenol) on bare aminosilica, GO@SiO2 and G@SiO2 packed columns, which proved the contribution of alone or combinational actions of solvophobic effect and π-π electron stacking as well as hydrogen bonds to retaining behaviors by GO@SiO2 and G@SiO2 . Well over-run, over-day and over-column precisions (retention time: 0.3-1.4, 1.1-3.8 and 2.8-5.2%, respectively; peak area: 2.6-6.5, 4.8-8.3 and 6.5-12.6%, respectively) of GO@SiO2 packed columns were a powerful proof for good reproducibility. Analytical characteristics of GO@SiO2 packed capillary columns in CEC analysis of fresh water were evaluated with respect to linearity (R2 = 0.9961-0.9989) over the range 0.1 to 100 mg/L and detection limits of 9.5 for naphthalene, 12.6 for fluorene and 16.2 µg/L for phenanthrene. Further application to fresh water increased the visibility of the proposed material, where good spike recoveries in the range 89-96% were offered.

Immobilized polysaccharide-based columns showed excellent enantioselectivity in normal phase separation mode. In this work, enantioseparation abilities of four immobilized polysaccharide-derived chiral stationary phases (Chiralpak IA, Chiralpak IB, Chiralpak IC, and Chiralpak ID) toward 15 azole compounds were evaluated. Separation was carried out using n-hexane as mobile phase with ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, and 2-propanol as modifiers. And twelve compounds have achieved baseline separation with the resolutions ranging between 2.05 and 21.73. The enantioseparation on the four polysaccharide-based chiral columns using different alcohol modifiers was compared. In general, the best separation performance was identified as Chiralpak IC, which was able to resolve 11 compounds to baseline and two partially under the screening conditions. Separation on Chiralpak IB was not satisfactory, because only four compounds were baseline separated.

The enantioseparation of twelve pairs of structurally related 1-aryl-1-indanone derivatives was studied in the normal-phase mode using three different polysaccharide-type chiral stationary phases, namely Chiralpak IB, Chiralpak IC, and Chiralpak ID. n-Hexane/2-propanol and n-hexane/ethanol were employed as mobile phases. Among all the investigated chiral columns, Chiralpak IC exhibited the most universal and the best enantioseparation ability toward all the racemates, particularly with the mobile phase composed of n-hexane/2-propanol (90/10, v/v). Then the effects of column temperature on retention and enantioselectivity were examined in the range of 25-40°C. Satisfactory enantioseparation was obtained at ambient temperature. The natural logarithm of retention and separation factors (ln k and ln α) versus the reciprocal of absolute temperature (1/T) (Van't Hoff plots) were found to be linear for all racemates, indicating that the retention and separation mechanisms were independent of temperature in the range investigated. Then, the thermodynamic parameters (ΔΔH°, ΔΔS°, and ΔΔG°) were calculated from Van't Hoff plots. These values indicated that the solute transfer from the mobile to stationary phase was enthalpically favorable, and the process of enantioseparation was mainly enthalpy controlled. At last, the impact of small changes in molecular structures of the tested 1-indanone derivatives on enantioseparation was also discussed.

Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is already used for enantioseparation in the pharmaceutical industry, but it is rarely used for the separation of chiral pesticides. Comparing with high performence liquid chromatography, SFC uses much more environmnetal friendly and economic mobile phase, supercritical CO2 . In our work, the enantioseparation of an amide herbicide, napropamide, using three different polysaccharide-type chiral stationary phases (CSPs) in SFC was investigated. By studying the effect of different CSPs, organic modifiers, temperature, back-pressure regulator pressures, and flow rates for the enantioseparation of napropamide, we established a rapid and green method for enantioseparation that takes less than 2 minutes: The column was CEL2, the mobile phase was CO2 with 20% 2-propanol, and the flow rate was 2.0 mL/min. We found that CEL2 demonstrated the strongest resolution capability. Acetonitrile was favored over alcoholic solvents when the CSP was amylose and 2-propanol was the best choice when using cellulose. When the concentration of the modifiers or the flow rate was decreased, resolutions and analysis times increased concurrently. The temperature and back-pressure regulator pressure exhibited only minor influences on the resolution and analysis time of the napropamide enantioseparations with these chiral columns. The molecular docking analysis provided a deeper insight into the interactions between the enantiomers and the CSPs at the atomic level and partly explained the reason for the different elution orders using the different chiral columns.
RESUMO
The enantioseparation of ezetimibe stereoisomers by high-performance liquid chromatography on different chiral stationary phases, ie, 3 polysaccharide-based chiral columns, was studied. It was observed that cellulose-based Chiralpak IC column exhibited the best resolving ability. After the optimization of mobile phase compositions in both normal and reversed phase modes, satisfactory separation could be obtained on Chiralpak IC column, especially in normal phase mode. The use of prohibited solvents as nonstandard mobile phase gave rise to better resolution than that of standard mobile phases (n-hexane/alcohol system). In addition, the presence of ethanol in nonstandard mobile phase has played an important role in enhancing chromatographic efficiency and resolution between ezetimibe stereoisomers. Various attempts were made to comprehensively compare the chiral recognition capabilities of immobilized versus coated polysaccharide-based chiral columns, amylose-based versus cellulose-based chiral stationary phases, reversed versus normal phase modes, and standard versus nonstandard mobile phases. Moreover, possible solute-mobile phase-stationary phase interactions were derived to explain how stationary and mobile phases affected the separation. Then the method validation with respect to selectivity, linearity, precision, accuracy, and robustness was carried out, which was demonstrated to be suitable and accurate for the quantitative determination of (RRS)-ezetimibe impurity in ezetimibe bulk drug.
RESUMO
Many small herbivores practice cecotrophy - the ingestion of special feces enriched in microbial protein by colonic separation mechanisms (CSM). In digesta passage experiments, secondary marker excretion peaks in feces are considered indicative of marker-reingestion via cecotrophy, but corroboration by behavioral observation was lacking so far. The paca (Cuniculus paca), a Neotropical hystricomorph rodent, produces two different kinds of feces (hard and soft) and practices cecotrophy either directly (from the anus) or indirectly (from a pile of defecated feces, mostly when hard and soft feces are defecated together). To investigate effects of diet on cecotrophy, we monitored cecotrophy behavior and digesta passage marker excretion of solute and particle markers in four adult pacas, at constant food intake, on four diets varying in protein and fiber content. Marker excretion patterns suggested a 'mucus-trap' CSM typical for hystricomorph rodents, and showed secondary peaks of a similar time lag after cecotrophy as the primary marker peak after marker feeding. However, not every cecotrophy event was followed by a secondary marker peak. On higher fiber/lower protein diets, the number of cecotrophy bouts, the duration of cecotrophy, the number of secondary marker peaks and the difference between solute and particle marker retention increased, whereas the proportion of indirect cecotrophy decreased, indicating a higher degree of digesta phase separation on these diets. Compared to hard feces, soft feces were particularly enriched in solute marker concentration. Cecotrophy depends on a CSM that varies in its efficiency with the nutrient composition of the diet.

In this study, the effects of chemical conditions on the recovery of Zn(II) and water during the ion flotation process were evaluated using a central composite design (CCD) of response surface methodology. The optimum effective parameters including pH, collector and frother concentration were determined. The results showed that the pH and collector concentration were effective factors for the efficiency of Zn(II) flotation. The effects of collector and frother concentration on the characterization of sublate and the complexation of sodium dodecyl sulphate with Zn(II) were studied using scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray (SEM/EDX) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The results show that foam fractionation occurred at a pH of 1.5, 3 and 5.5 and ion flotation at a pH of 8.

Enantiomeric 1 H and 13 C NMR signal separation behaviors of various α-amino acids and DL-tartarate were investigated by using the samarium(III) and neodymium(III) complexes with (S,S)-ethylenediamine-N,N'-disuccinate as chiral shift reagents. A relatively smaller concentration ratio of the lanthanide(III) complex to substrates was suitable for the neodymium(III) complex compared with the samarium(III) one, striking a balance between relatively greater signal separation and broadening. To clarify the difference in the signal separation behavior, the chemical shifts of ß-protons for fully bound D- and L-alanine (δb (D) and δb (L)) and their adduct formation constants (Ks) were obtained for both metal complexes. Preference for D-alanine was similarly observed for both complexes, while it was revealed that the difference between the δb (D) and δb (L) values is the significant factor to determine the enantiomeric signal separation. The neodymium(III) and samarium(III) complexes can be used complementarily for higher and smaller concentration ranges of substrates, respectively, because the neodymium(III) complex gives the larger difference between the δb (D) and δb (L) values with greater signal broadening compared to the samarium(III) complex.

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a powerful method in the area of chiral separation. In this study, a method of HPLC using carboxymethyl-ß-cyclodextrin (CM-ß-CD) as chiral selector was developed for enantioseparation of nine indanone and tetralone derivatives. The separation was performed on a conventional C18 column. The optimal mobile phase was a mixture of methanol and 0.05 mol/L phosphate buffer at pH 1.8 (55:45, v/v) containing 22.9 mmol/L CM-ß-CD. Under such conditions, the resolutions of all analytes were over 1.8 except for Compound F. The results of the study indicate the presence of a complex with 1:1 stoichiometry of the inclusion complex. In addition, it can be inferred from thermodynamic analysis that the behavior of formation of the inclusion complex and enantioseparation occurred simultaneously, while they were driven by different forces. The effect of analyte structure is also discussed.
