    Area of Science:

    • Analytical Chemistry
    • Biochemistry
    • Chromatography

    Background:

    • Processing large volumes of biological samples for analysis presents significant challenges.
    • Existing methods often struggle with analyte recovery and resolution when dealing with complex biological matrices.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate a conical high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) precolumn.
    • To address limitations in processing large volumes of biological samples for enhanced analyte enrichment and recovery.

    Main Methods:

    • Design and construction of a conical stainless-steel HPLC precolumn with high loading capacity (up to 40 MPa).
    • Application of the precolumn for the assay of pamoic acid in human plasma.
    • Utilization for isolating radioactive metabolites from animal urine and liver homogenates.

    Main Results:

    • The precolumn demonstrated high loading capacity and pressure resistance, integrating seamlessly into HPLC systems.
    • Practical complete recovery of metabolites was achieved, except for extremely polar compounds.
    • High chromatographic resolution was maintained even after processing large sample volumes (e.g., 900 ml urine, 650 ml liver homogenate supernatant).

    Conclusions:

    • The conical HPLC precolumn is highly effective for enriching analytes from large volumes of complex biological matrices.
    • It significantly improves the efficiency and sensitivity of metabolite analysis and compound assays.
    • The precolumn offers a versatile solution for various chromatographic challenges requiring sample enrichment.
