Objective of Separation
Physical Pharmacy 23
Proteins are extracted from animals and humans as a mixture in a serum of body fluids.
To study a specific protein, like an antibody, hormone, or enzyme, need to separate from the mix.

Paper Chromatography of Inks
Physical Pharmacy 26
Inks from pens are chromatographed on paper using water as the mobile phase.

Type Stationary phase Mobile phase
Ion-exchangeBased on charge
Polymeric matrix – bonded with functional groups e.g. carboxylic acids, quarternary amines
Liquidionic solutes are retained by forming electrostatic chemical bonds
Size-exclusionBased on size
Polymeric substance with numerous pores
Liquid or gaseoussmall solutes diffuse into pores, big solutes remain in mobile phase
AffinityBased on biorecognition (ligand specificity)
A specific ligand e.g. antibody is bound to stationary phase
A mixture of solute containing an antigen, will bind strongly to the ligand

Stationary Phase
Physical Pharmacy 29
• Semi-permeable due to porous structure of beadsSemi-permeable
polymer
• Degree of crosslinking is controlled to give different pore sizesPorous beads
• Define the FRACTIONATION RANGE• molecules within that molecular
weight range can be separated.
Different pore size
![Page 10: Kausar Ahmad Kulliyyah of Pharmacy, IIUM Physical Pharmacy 2 1 SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHY](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110116/5519dc355503468b0c8b4b8f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Nature of Porous Material(stationary phase)
Physical Pharmacy 210
Porous material must swell up & imbibe/absorb the liquid phase
This created solvent-filled ‘sponge’ that allows diffusion of molecules
Therefore, stationary phase may be hydrophilic to imbibe aqueous media, or lipophilic to imbibe non-polar organic solvents.
![Page 11: Kausar Ahmad Kulliyyah of Pharmacy, IIUM Physical Pharmacy 2 1 SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHY](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110116/5519dc355503468b0c8b4b8f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Types of Stationary Phase
Physical Pharmacy 211
Soft gels
e.g. Polyacrylamide gels, dextran (natural glucose polymer)
• Separation of proteins
Semirigid or rigid gels
• e.g. 1) Polystyrene gels• Separation of non-polar polymers in non-polar solvents
• e.g. 2) Porous glass gels• Separation of polar systems
![Page 12: Kausar Ahmad Kulliyyah of Pharmacy, IIUM Physical Pharmacy 2 1 SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHY](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110116/5519dc355503468b0c8b4b8f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Soft gels
Physical Pharmacy 212
Before column is packed, gel is imbibed by enough liquid to completely swell.
• These gels are used with aqueous mobile phase.
Once column is packed, the composition of the mobile phase cannot be altered to prevent shrinkage or bursting of the packed column.
• Because of low structural strength, they cannot be used under high pressure.
classified as gel filtration.

Semirigid Gels
Physical Pharmacy 213
Made from crosslinked polystyrene, glass beads or alkylated dextran.
Used for separation of organic-soluble polymers.
Non-aqueous mobile phases e.g. chloroform, acetone, pyridine or tetrahydrofuran.
Classified as gel permeation.
![Page 14: Kausar Ahmad Kulliyyah of Pharmacy, IIUM Physical Pharmacy 2 1 SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHY](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110116/5519dc355503468b0c8b4b8f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Mobile Phase
Physical Pharmacy 214
The mobile phase contains a mixture of solutes.
Small solutes will diffuse in and out of the pores (obeying Fick’s law)
• Their path through the column is longer• The elution time will be longer
![Page 15: Kausar Ahmad Kulliyyah of Pharmacy, IIUM Physical Pharmacy 2 1 SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHY](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110116/5519dc355503468b0c8b4b8f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Extent of retention
Physical Pharmacy 215
extent of retention depends on size of the included molecules relative to the pores.
Smallest molecules
• enter all pores -> totally included -> FINAL peak
Intermediate molecules, due to velocity of mobile phase, will not be able to diffuse into the pores that they may fit, thus will be retained less effectively.
• Enter some pores -> partially included -> INTERMEDIATE peaks
Big molecules
• Could not enter any -> totally EXCLUDED -> INITIAL peak

Desalting
Physical Pharmacy 221
Necessary for purification of biochemicals.
Due to techniques involving buffers and precipitating reagents.
Gel with low exclusion limit (MW 1000-2000) is used.
Short column and high flow rate can be used because of the vast difference in size of solutes and contaminants.
Macromolecules will be eluted with little dilution and salts retained on the column.
![Page 22: Kausar Ahmad Kulliyyah of Pharmacy, IIUM Physical Pharmacy 2 1 SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHY](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110116/5519dc355503468b0c8b4b8f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Concentration of Dilute Solutions
Physical Pharmacy 222
Exclusion limit of gels less than MW of solutes.
Solution is mixed with a small quantity of dry gel that will absorb 10 to 20 times its weight in water.
Some salts and small molecules are taken up also.
Final macromolecules in a solution of almost unchanged pH and ionic strength but significantly decreased volume.
![Page 23: Kausar Ahmad Kulliyyah of Pharmacy, IIUM Physical Pharmacy 2 1 SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHY](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110116/5519dc355503468b0c8b4b8f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Molecular Weight Determination
Physical Pharmacy 223
Size is approximately proportional to molecular weight, M.
Volume at which a solute is eluted, VR,
can be expressed by:
VR = a + b log M
a and b are constants dependent on the mobile and stationary
phases.

Separation based on size - precaution
Physical Pharmacy 226
Proteins are separated according to their molecular weight
• because this is the major contribution to molecular size.
However, the shape will affect its apparent size in solution.
Hence, gel filtration is NOT recommended for separating proteins with only a small difference in molecular weight.
![Page 27: Kausar Ahmad Kulliyyah of Pharmacy, IIUM Physical Pharmacy 2 1 SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHY](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110116/5519dc355503468b0c8b4b8f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Advantages of Gel Filtration
Physical Pharmacy 228
Can handle biomolecules that are sensitive to changes in pH, concentration of metal ions or harsh environmental conditions.
Separations can be performed in the presence of essential ions, detergents, urea,, at high or low ionic strength, at 37 °C or in the cold room according to the requirements of the experiment.

Columns and Detectors
Physical Pharmacy 229
Detection of the solute zones as they emerge from the column can be achieved by spectrophotometric monitoring of the eluate by measurement of refractive index of eluate
Collection of aliquots for later analysis
Mobile phase is allowed to flow by gravity
Very high flow rate not suitable for soft gels

How to check reliability?
Physical Pharmacy 232
Calibrate
Use standards
Choice of standards depends on application
Available in low and high molecular weight ranges supplied lyophilized in individual vials.
Kits include Blue Dextran 2000 to determine the column void volume and to check column packing.
![Page 33: Kausar Ahmad Kulliyyah of Pharmacy, IIUM Physical Pharmacy 2 1 SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHY](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110116/5519dc355503468b0c8b4b8f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Calibration for MW Determination
Physical Pharmacy 233
Calibrate using large molecule such as blue dextran to establish void volume of the system.
Use deuterium oxide or sucrose to determine retention time for a totally included solute.
Use a series of standard proteins or polymers to calibrate regions between these two limits.
