Micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography offers a high-resolution microanalytical technique useful for adducted and modified nucleic acid constituents. A mixture of 14 normal and modified deoxyribonucleosides, deoxyribomononucleotides, a ribonucleoside and a pyrimidine can be resolved in less than 40 min using 10 kV of separating voltage, 0.075 M sodium dodecylsulfate micelles in phosphate-borate buffer, and a 68.5 cm X 60 micron I.D. fused-silica column. Efficiencies up to 370,000 theoretical plates (540,000 plates/m) are achieved, but are highly dependent on solute concentration. The limit of detection for 2'-deoxyguanosine under high-resolution conditions is ca. 18 pg at a signal-to-noise ratio of 4, but the very small injection volumes (ca. 1.5 nl) limit the minimum detectable sample solution concentration to ca. 42 nmol/ml.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents. (From Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed, p301, p499) Indicator,Reagent,Reagents,Indicators,Reagents and Indicators
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008823 Micelles Particles consisting of aggregates of molecules held loosely together by secondary bonds. The surface of micelles are usually comprised of amphiphatic compounds that are oriented in a way that minimizes the energy of interaction between the micelle and its environment. Liquids that contain large numbers of suspended micelles are referred to as EMULSIONS. Micelle
D009696 Nucleic Acids High molecular weight polymers containing a mixture of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides chained together by ribose or deoxyribose linkages. Nucleic Acid,Acid, Nucleic,Acids, Nucleic
D002853 Chromatography, Liquid Chromatographic techniques in which the mobile phase is a liquid. Liquid Chromatography
D004591 Electrophoresis, Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis in which a polyacrylamide gel is used as the diffusion medium. Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis,SDS-PAGE,Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-PAGE,Gel Electrophoresis, Polyacrylamide,SDS PAGE,Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate PAGE,Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-PAGEs
