  • Title: Preparation and characterization of calixarene-coated capillaries for capillary electrophoresis.
    Author: Wang Z, Chen Y, Yuan H, Huang Z, Liu G.
    Journal: Electrophoresis; 2000 May; 21(8):1620-4. PubMed ID: 10832896.
    Abstract:
    Preparation and characterization of calixarene-coated capillaries for capillary electrophoresis (CE) were exemplified with p-allylcalix[4]arene (pACX4) which was immobilized to the fused silica surface using gamma-methacryloxypropyl-trimethoxysilane (gamma-MAPS) as linking agent. Successful gamma-ACX4 coating was suggested by the greatly decreased electroosmotic flow (EOF), due to the introduction of phenolic hydroxyl groups on the inner surface of the capillaries. A slight slope of EOF versus pH at pH <8 would help make the separation reproducible. The coated columns also featured a low ultraviolet (UV) absorption background and long lifetime (> 6 months at 4<pH<9). Moreover, their special selectivity on phenolic compounds indicated a certain extent of selective interactions between solutes and the calixarene coating, which effected separations partially based on an electrochromatographic mechanism.
