  • Title: Isolation and characterization of beta-cyclodextrin sulfates by preparative gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, capillary electrophoresis and electrospray ionization - mass spectrometry.
    Author: Hileman RE, Siegel MM, Tabei K, Balagurunathan K, Linhardt RJ.
    Journal: Electrophoresis; 1998 Nov; 19(15):2677-81. PubMed ID: 9848677.
    Abstract:
    A beta-cyclodextrin sulfate mixture has been fractionated using discontinuous gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Semidry electrotransfer of the sample onto a positively charged nylon membrane and visualization of a portion of this membrane with Alcian blue stain showed multiple bands. The bands were cut from the remaining portion of the membrane and after washing with 8 M urea, the beta-cyclodextrin sulfate fractions were eluted with 2 M sodium chloride and dialyzed. Analysis of each fraction using high resolution analytical gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as well as capillary electrophoresis, using indirect detection, showed some of the fractions to be pure while others were mixtures. Each beta-cyclodextrin sulfate fraction was complexed with a basic synthetic peptide and analyzed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry to define the mass of the components in each mixture and thereby to determine the purity of each sample.
