Kinds of Gel Column Terms modified by Gel Column Selected AbstractsSingle-step purification of the recombinant green fluorescent protein from intact Escherichia coli cells using preparative PAGEELECTROPHORESIS, Issue 17 2009Few Ne Chew Abstract Mechanical and non-mechanical breakages of bacterial cells are usually the preliminary steps in intracellular protein purification. In this study, the recombinant green fluorescent protein (GFP) was purified from intact Escherichia coli cells using preparative PAGE. In this purification process, cells disruption step is not needed. The cellular content of E. coli was drifted out electrically from cells and the negatively charged GFP was further electroeluted from polyacrylamide gel column. SEM investigation of the electrophoresed cells revealed substantial structural damage at the cellular level. This integrated purification technique has successfully recovered the intracellular GFP with a yield of 82% and purity of 95%. [source] Insecticidal activities of secondary metabolites of endophytic Pencillium sp. in Derris elliptica BenthJOURNAL OF APPLIED ENTOMOLOGY, Issue 8 2005M. Y. Hu Abstract:, A strain of endophytic Pencillium sp., which might produce rotenone or its analogues and showed bioactivity against aphids, was isolated from the fresh roots of Derris elliptica Benth. A total of 12 fractions, isolated from the chloroform extract of endophytic Pencillium sp. mycelia by silica gel column, were tested by bioassay and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the more bioactive fractions were found to be D, E and J. Against the adult turnip aphid, Lipaphis erysimi, by dipping at a concentration of 1 mg/ml, the corrected mortalities of fraction D, E and J were 57.68, 63.28 and 69.74% after 48 h of treatment respectively. The three fractions also showed strong antifeeding activity against third instar larvae of Plutella xylostella in a laboratory bioassay. One absorption peak was detected in the HPLC picture of fraction D, it had a similar retention time as that of rotenone, and the chemical constituent, related to the absoption peak, had the same ultraviolet absorption picture as that of rotenone. Then it could be further concluded that the bioactive compounds in the fraction D could be rotenone or its analogous compounds. [source] IDENTIFICATION OF PROCYANIDIN A2 AS POLYPHENOL OXIDASE SUBSTRATE IN PERICARP TISSUES OF LITCHI FRUITJOURNAL OF FOOD BIOCHEMISTRY, Issue 3 2007JIAN SUN ABSTRACT Postharvest browning of litchi fruit results in short shelf life and reduced commercial value. Experiments were conducted to separate, purify and identify polyphenol oxidase (PPO ) substrates that cause litchi fruit to brown. PPO and its substrate were extracted from the pericarp tissues of litchi fruit. The litchi PPO substrate was purified using polyamide column, silica gel column and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. The browning substrate was selected by a 0.5% FeCl3 solution and then identified using a partially purified litchi PPO. Analyses of ultraviolet spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry indicated that the PPO substrate was procyanidin A2. The substrate can be oxidized to , -quinones by litchi PPO and then form brown-colored by-products, resulting in pericarp browning of harvested litchi fruit. [source] Analyses of Glycolipids in Clove, Red Pepper, and Nutmeg by High-Performance Liquid ChromatographyJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 6 2000H. Suzuki ABSTRACT: To determine the existence of glycolipids (neutral glycosphingolipid and glycoglycerolipid) in clove, red pepper, and nutmeg, we performed silica gel chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using an Aquasil-SS column and a C8 -reversed-phase silica gel column. HPLC (Aquasil-SS column) with a UV absorption detector was used to analyze neutral glycosphingolipid. These chromatograms showed two typical peaks in clove lipids. UV-HPLC (C8 -reversed phase silica gel column) was also used to analyze glycoglycerolipid. The chromatograms indicated a small peak in clove lipids. Moreover, we observed the same two peaks in the glycolipid fraction of clove lipid when we used HPLC (Aquasil-SS column) with a differential refractometer detector. These results suggest that clove may contain new and plural neutral glycosphingolipids. [source] Chiral separation of the ,2 -sympathomimetic fenoterol by HPLC and capillary zone electrophoresis for pharmacokinetic studiesBIOMEDICAL CHROMATOGRAPHY, Issue 10 2010Thomas Ullrich Abstract The development of methods for the separation of the enantiomers of fenoterol by chiral HPLC and capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) is described. For the HPLC separation precolumn fluorescence derivatization with naphthyl isocyanate was applied. The resulting urea derivatives were resolved on a cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)-coated silica gel column employing a column switching procedure. Detection was carried out fluorimetrically with a detection limit in the low ng/mL range. The method was adapted to the determination of fenoterol enantiomers in rat heart perfusates using liquid,liquid extraction. As an alternative a CE method was used for the direct separation of fenoterol enantiomers comparing different cyclodextrin derivatives as chiral selectors. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source] A sensitive and specific HPGPC-FD method for the study of pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of Radix Ophiopogonis polysaccharide in ratsBIOMEDICAL CHROMATOGRAPHY, Issue 8 2010Xiao Lin Abstract Interest in antimyocardial ischemic activity of a graminan-type fructan with a weight average molecular weight of 4.8,kDa extracted from Radix Ophiopogonis (ROP) has necessitated the study of its pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution. For that, a simple HPGPC,FD method was developed for the sensitive and specific determination of FITC-ROP (fluorescein,isothiocyanate-labeled ROP) in plasma and rat tissues (heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, brain and stomach). The analyte was separated on a Shodex Sugar KS-802 high-performance gel column with 0.1,M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.5,mL/min, and fluorescence detection at ,ex 495,nm and ,em 515,nm. The calibration curve for FITC-ROP was linear over the range 0.25,20.0 or 50.0,,g/mL in all studied biosamples with correlation coefficients >0.995. The inter-day and intra-day precisions of analysis were not more than 10%, and assay accuracy ranged from 93 to 105% for plasma and from 89 to 108% for tissue homogenates. This method has been confirmed here to be suitable for the study of pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of ROP and the achieved results are highly instructive for the further pharmaceutical development of ROP, suggesting the promising application of the method to the increasingly important carbohydrate-based drugs.
