      The influence of perchlorate ion concentration on the retention of fluoroquinolones in RP-TLC
      M. KAMINSKA, Irena CHOMA* (*Department of Chromatographic Methods, University of M. Curie-Sklodowska, M. Sklodowska Sq. 3, 20-031 Lublin, Poland; irena.choma@poczta.umcs.lublin.pl)

      J. Liq. Chromatogr. Relat. Technol. 33, 894-902 (2010). Five amphoteric piperazynyl fluoroquinolones and flumequine were analyzed in an RP system on C8 plates with acetonitrile/aqueous acidic mobile phases containing various concentrations of potassium perchlorate. Perchlorate as a so-called chaotropic ion caused the increase in the retention of basic fluoroquinolones. TLC of sarafloxacin, difloxacin, norfloxacin, enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and flumequine on RP-8 with acetonitrile - water containing constant concentration of citric acid but various concentrations of potassium perchorate. After air-drying, fluoroquinolone zones were detected at 366 nm and 254 nm and flumequine only at 254 nm. The retention increased with the increasing concentrations of perchlorate ion in the mobile phase and achieved a plateau for the mobile phases containing 10-20 mM of chaotropic perchlorate.

Linearity was in the range of 1-6 µg/zone for both (1) and (2). The LOD and LOQ were 260 and 870 ng/zone for (1) and 220 and 740 ng/zone for (2), respectively. Average recovery (by standard addition) for (1) and (2) was 99.2 %. Intermediate/interday/intra-day precision was below 2 % (n=3). The method showed comparable results with a validated HPLC method.

      Food Addit. Contam. 31, 1959-1967 (2014). TLC of (1) sulfamethoxypyridazine-fluorescein isothiocyanate and (2) sarafloxacin-Texas Red on silica gel with chloroform - methanol 4:1 for (1) and methanol - ethyl acetate - ammonia water 4:1:1 for (2). Fluorescence polarisation was measured at 485/>530 nm (emission cutoff at 515 nm, G factor 1.0) for (1), and 585/>620 nm (emission cut-off at 610 nm, G factor 1.0) for (2). The hRF values for (1) and (2) were 10 and 80, respectively. The method allowed the synthesis of fluorescent tracers that bind recombinant bi-specific single-chain diabodies to detect fluoroquinolones and sulfonamides in milk.
