Monolithic columns based on poly-(styrene-divinylbenzene) (PS-DVB) were utilized both for preconcentration (in 10 mm x 0.20 mm I.D. format) and analytical separation (in 60 mm x 0.20 and 0.10 mm I.D. format) of peptides and proteins in column switching micro-scale high-performance liquid chromatography. A special holder for short monolithic preconcentration columns was designed and pressure durability tests approved long-term stability up to 400 bar. An 11-20% decrease in the average peak widths of nine peptides was obtained upon combining a preconcentration column with an analytical column as compared with a setup using an analytical column only. Trapping efficiency, especially for small and hydrophilic peptides, was optimized by using 0.10% heptafluorobutyric acid instead of 0.050% trifluoroacetic acid as solvent additive during sample loading. Using a 10 mm x 0.20 mm I.D. preconcentration column, loadabilities between 0.5 and 1.6 microg were determined by frontal analysis of proteins and bioactive peptides, respectively. A 100-fold concentration followed by direct on-line intact mass determination is demonstrated for diluted (3 micromolL(-1)) protein solutions. The applicability of the monolithic preconcentration column for multidimensional chromatography was tested by off-line two-dimensional separation, combining strong cation-exchange chromatography and ion-pair reversed-phase chromatography. Peptide identification data from digested protein mixtures demonstrated reproducibilities of 46-75% in triplicate analyses, and confident peptide identifications of low abundant peptides even in the presence of a 650-fold molar excess of high abundant peptides.
基于聚(苯乙烯 - 二乙烯基苯)(PS - DVB)的整体柱被用于柱切换微尺度高效液相色谱中肽和蛋白质的预浓缩(10 mm×0.20 mm内径规格)和分析分离(60 mm×0.20和0.10 mm内径规格)。设计了一种用于短整体预浓缩柱的特殊固定器,压力耐久性测试证明其在高达400 bar的压力下具有长期稳定性。与仅使用分析柱的设置相比,将预浓缩柱与分析柱结合使用时,九种肽的平均峰宽降低了11 - 20%。在进样期间,通过使用0.10%的七氟丁酸代替0.050%的三氟乙酸作为溶剂添加剂,优化了捕集效率,尤其是对于小的亲水性肽。使用10 mm×0.20 mm内径的预浓缩柱,通过蛋白质和生物活性肽的前沿分析分别测定了0.5至1.6 μg的负载量。对于稀释的(3 μmolL⁻¹)蛋白质溶液,展示了100倍浓缩后直接在线进行完整质量测定的过程。通过离线二维分离,结合强阳离子交换色谱和离子对反相色谱,测试了整体预浓缩柱在多维色谱中的适用性。来自消化蛋白质混合物的肽鉴定数据在三次重复分析中显示出46 - 75%的重现性,并且即使在存在650倍摩尔过量的高丰度肽的情况下,也能可靠地鉴定低丰度肽。
