This is usually carried out using gas chromatography(GC)with direct injection sample introduction. This method requires testing compounds to be soluble at high concentrations( > 50 mg/mL, usually in DMSO) to achieve acceptable sensitivity, a hurdle which is not always achievable for some samples such as cyclic peptides and oligonucleotides. To overcome the limitation associated with the direct injection approach, a new method using the Chromatoprobe thermal extraction device was developed for quantifying residual solvents of drug discovery compounds. This method not only consumes significantly less material(less than 1 mg), but also shows higher sensitivity than the direct injection approach.In addition, because no diluent is required with the Chromatoprobe thermal extraction, all residual solvents can be detected and measured without further method optimization. In our study, we compared data from GC residual solvent analysis using the Chromatoprobe solid sample introduction to those of the direct injection method for seven in-house samples. Our results showed a good agreement between the data from these two sample introduction methods. Thus, the Chromatoprobe sample introduction method provided a samplesparing alternative to the direct injection method for the measurement of residual solvents in drug discovery.This method can be particularly useful for residual solvent analysis in samples that are available only in limited amounts, poorly soluble, and/or unstable in the diluents used for the direct injection method.展开更多

Non-isothermal kinetic was examined in air and Ar. A complete analysis of the evolution of infrared spectra matched with crystalline phase transition data during the course of reaction allows access to significant and accurate information about molecular dynamics. While thermogravimetry gives broad conclusion about two steps reaction (dehydration and decarboxylation), in line approach (in situ X-ray and in situ DRIFT coupled to μGC-MS) is proposed as an example of a new robust and forward-looking analysis. While decomposition mechanism of copper acetate monohydrate is still not well elucidated yet previously, the present in-line characterization results lead to accurate data making the corresponding mechanism explicit.展开更多

The samples of PVA hydrogel were closely covered by plastic film. The changes of their chemical structures and physical properties during aging were measured through different measurable techniques including tensile testing, gel permeation chromatography ( GPC ), viscosity analysis, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spec- trum. The results showed that the molecular weight of PVA in hydrogel changed little with time and temperature. FTIR spectra of PVA in all the samples were similar to those of the original samples. The tensile strength of PVA hydrogel didn't change until the 330th days.展开更多
