Capillary electrophoresis separation and native laser-induced fluorescence detection of metallotexaphyrins
journal contribution
posted on 2023-05-16, 22:55 authored by Joselito Quirino, Dulay, MT, Fu, L, Mody, TD, Zare, RNMethods based on capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and electrokinetic chromatography (EKC) are developed for the separation of motexafin gadolinium (MGd, Xcytrin®), a novel redox-active drug, under development for cancer therapy, and two closely related metallotexaphyrin impurities, called PCI-0400 and PCI-0430. The three metallotexaphyrins are baseline resolved using EKC in a separation solution containing 400-mM cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide, 50-mM phosphoric acid, and 20% methanol. Detection is achieved using native laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) by exciting at 488 nm and collecting emission at 750 nm. Analysis of a representative clinical batch of MGd using EKC combined with native LIF allowed for the detection of PCI-0400 and PCI-0430 along with nine other possible MGd impurities, each of which is present at approximately 0.1% (total weight of the sample).
