The high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） system consisted of a clean-up column and an analytical column, which were connected with two six-port switching valves. Detection of petroleum sulfonates was available and repeatable. This method has been successfully applied to determine PMS and PDS in crude oil samples from Shengli oil field.展开更多

However, analytical devices such as GC/MS are associated with high cost and are not widely used. HPLC/UV is used widely in laboratories, but is unsuitable for measurement of minor constituents, except when using the column-switching method. Thus, we aimed to establish a simple, inexpensive and sensitive method based on HPLC/UV with column switching for measuring nicotine and cotinine in hair. First, we compared the presence and absence of a column selection unit. We then measured amounts of nicotine and cotinine in hair samples collected from the general population, and compared both the corresponding levels and the detection limits with those in previous studies. Finally, initial and running costs of HPLC/UV were compared with other analytical methods. As one of the results, the areas of nicotine and cotinine measured by HPLC/UV with column-switching method were 12.9 and 16.9 times greater, respectively, than those without the column-switching method. The amount of nicotine and cotinine in hair was significantly correlated to number of cigarettes smoked per day (r = 0.228, p = 0.040). In addition, the HPLC/UV method showed similar sensitivity and detection limit (nicotine, 0.10 ng/mg;cotinine, 0.08 ng/mg) as reported in previous studies. The cost of the HPLC/UV method is lower than that of other analytical methods. We were able to establish a low-cost method with good sensitivity for measuring nicotine and cotinine in hair. The HPLC/UV with a column-switching method will be useful as a first step in screening surveys in order to better understand the effects of smoking exposure.展开更多

Three columns including a trap column,concentration column and analytical column were used for trapping the fat-soluble components, on-line enrichment and reverse phase separation, respectively. Capsaicinoids were on-line extracted by a CO_2 supercritical fluid, then concentrated and separated by using the C_(18) columns, finally detected by mass spectrometry(MS). Capsaicin eluted at 10.1 min and limit of detection(LOD, S/N=3) for the standard solution is 0.55pg. The linearity was calculated with a value of coefficient of determination(R^2)≥0.998 in the range of 1.1–8.5 ng. Concentrations of capsaicin in the green, yellow, and red bell peppers were determined to be 60.33 ng/g, 31.79 ng/g, 35.38ng/g, respectively.展开更多
