2 QUANTITATIVE AMINO ACID ANALYSIS Principles of amino acid analysis Ion exchange chromatography The Biochrom 30 physiological system Optimisation of chromatography Principles Separation of less common amino acids Troubleshooting and maintenance 2
3 PRINCIPLES OF AMINO ACID ANALYSIS Structure of amino acids Where - NH2 is the amino group - COOH is the carboxyl group - R is the side chain Separation is effected by: Charge difference on the amino acids caused by different pk values of the side chains Hydrophobic interaction of the side chain with the polystyrene matrix 3
4 ION EXCHANGE PROCESS Principle: The positively charged amino acids are bound to the resin which is negatively charged. The conditions are then altered to increase the ph, temperature and the concentration of the buffer counter ion. When the isoionic point of an amino acid is being reached, the ionic attraction to the resin is lost and the amino acid elutes from the column. 4
5 Simplified reaction between Ninhydrin and amino acids Ninhydrin = powerful oxidising agent Oxidative deamination of the alpha-amino group, liberating ammonia, carbon dioxide, an aldehyde with one less carbon atom and a reduced form of ninhydrin, hydrindantin. The ammonia then reacts with the hydrindantin and another molecule of ninhydrin to yield a purple substance (Ruhemann s purple) that absorbs maximally around 570nm. 5
6 Simplified reaction between Ninhydrin and imino acids The imino acids (proline and hydroxyproline): do not have free alphaamino groups Reaction with ninhydrin forms a bright yellow compound monitored at 440nm 6
7 NINHYDRIN DETECTION Beer-Lambert law: defines the relationship between absorbance and molar concentration A=log 10 (I o /I)=Ecb Where A=absorbance I o =intensity of the incident light I= intensity of the transmitted light E=molar absorptivity (dm 3 mol -1 cm -1 ) c= molar concentration (mol dm -3 ) b=path length (cm) Linear relationship between concentration and absorbance Detection at 570 and 440 nm 7
8 INTRODUCTION TO THE BIOCHROM 30 Principles: Ion exchange chromatography Stepwise elution gradient Spectrophotometric detection at 570 nm and 440 nm following Ninhydrin post-column derivatisation The system is composed of : Autosampler Chromatographic unit PC : Biosys Control software & EZChrom Elite 8

11 THE BIOCHROM 30 PHYSIOLOGICAL SYSTEM APPLICATIONS
12 SEPARATION PROGRAM FOR ROUTINE ANALYSIS Buffer Molarity ph Buffer 1 Lithium A Buffer 2 Lithium B Buffer 3 Lithium CII Buffer 4 Lithium DII Buffer 5 Lithium ph Buffer 6 Lithium hydroxide
13 PHYSIOLOGICAL STANDARD (Sigma) 13
14 EXAMPLES Plasma Urine 14
15 SHORT PROGRAMS FOR SPECIFIC ANALYSES PKU Homocysteine MSUD Sulfocysteine 15
16 OPTIMISATION OF CHROMATOGRAPHIC CONDITIONS
17 MAIN PARAMETERS AFFECTING AMINO ACID SEPARATION Analytical column dimension The sensitivity increases as the column diameter decreases The sensitivity increases as the resin bed length increases Buffer composition ph Molarity Organic solvent content Timing of buffers Buffer flow rate Analytical column temperature 17
18 GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS Each change in the program may affect the rest of the chromatogram Temperature change will take effect at the corresponding time of the program but the effect of a buffer change will be delayed Increase of temperature or change of buffer will make peaks sharper Timing of buffer adjustment : 1 to 2 min at a time Temperature adjustment: 1 to 2 C at a time 18
19 B1(A) Temperature and buffer changes on lithium systems B2(B) B3(CII) Buffer only B4(DII) Standard B5(pH3.55) Loading buffer T1 T2 T3 T1 Temperature 19
20 TEMPERATURE Increase of the temperature of the analytical column: In general, shorten the retention time of amino acids Effect varies for each amino acid Amino acids most affected by the temperature Glutamine (T1) Citrulline (T2a) Tyrosine and Phenylalanine (T2b) Tryptophan (T3) Column backpressure is directly proportional to the viscosity of the buffer and the viscosity decreases by 1%/degree up to 95. Higher flow rate can be used at higher temperature without sacrificing the efficiency 20
21 BUFFER TIMING Adusting the timing of the buffer is equivalent to adjusting the ph and molarity Amino acids most affected by the timing of the buffers Sarcosine: to move buffer change away from sarc increase time of buffer 1 (A) Cystine: shape depends on time of buffer 2 (B) Ileu/Leu: shape depends on time of buffer 3 (CII) Homocyst/Gaba: separation can be improved by decreasing time of buffer 3 (CII) at second step 21
22
23 SEPARATION OF LESS COMMON AMINO ACIDS
24 Homocitrulline Elutes between Cys & Met Separated by decreasing the time of buffer 2 24
25 Argininosuccinic acid (ASA) Elutes between Leu & Nleu Separated by adjusting the time of buffer 3 25
26 Alloisoleucine Elutes between Met & Cysth Separated by adjusting the time of buffer 2 26
27 SIMPLE TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
28 Separation: what it should look like 28
29 POOR SEPARATION Possible causes: Incorrect program => Optimise program Analytical column Incorrect buffers => Check relevant buffers are fitted in the correct position Sample preparation: sample loaded at the incorrect ph 29
30 Example 1: Analytical column resin contaminated Distorting peak shapes Poor separation 30
31 Example 2: Buffer problem Buffers mixed up by mistake => wrong ph and molarity Buffers in wrong positions Never add new buffer to old (always discard remaining buffer) Thoroughly clean and rinse buffer reservoir and refill with fresh buffer 31
32 Poor reproducibility Possible causes: Retention times Changing buffer flow rate Samples loaded at different ph Temperature not controlled properly Areas Air bubbles in the injection line => Check autosampler syringe => Check level of autosampler wash solution Fault finding tip: To identify the cause of the problem run consecutive standards (from the same vial) in the same conditions 32
33 Example: Effect of ph on retention times Standard diluted 1:1 with 10%SSA and standard diluted 1:1 with lithium loading buffer ph=1.9 ph=0.9 33
34 Other common faults High buffer pressure (Error 5) Column inlet frit dirty => replace inlet frit Resin contaminated => clean the resin and repack column Column temperature too low Buffer flow rate too high 34
35 Other common faults Low ninhydrin pressure (Error 7) Ninhydrin reservoir empty Air in ninhydrin pump Diverter valve set to drain When replacing the ninhydrin filter turn the diverter down to drain for a few minutes Low buffer pressure (Error 8) Air in pump Leak in buffer fluidics prior to column Diverter valve set to drain Use the tap on the bubble trap to prime the buffer lines 35
36 Other common faults Baseline noise due to faulty photometer lamp => replace lamp nm Satterlee_M^W18776^plasma Spikes caused by ageing lamp, filament collapsing mvolts mvolts Minutes 36
37 Communication errors EZChrom Elite: Run not waiting for trigger (Error 704) When shutting down BioSys always use File/Shutdown When using the link, do not close the EZChrom Elite online window manually but always use the Hide Elite button on the programmer window Autosampler not responding (Error 904) Always make sure that the autosampler is in SERIAL mode 37
38 CONCLUSION Faults can usually be avoided by following the daily and monthly checks as described in the operator manual For example Low pressure Check the volumes of buffer and Nin in the bottles Use the reagent management tool Baseline problem Volume of wash liquid in the coil flush bottle Clean the flowcell manually with methanol or IPA Pumps Check the volume of water in the piston flush bottle 38
