Agents Speed Chiral Preps.
Researchers at the University of Cincinnati (Dept. of Chemistry, Crossley 200, P.O. Box 210172, Cincinnati, OH 45221; Tel: 513/556- 9216) have discovered that using a chiral auxiliary agent in the buffer aids continuous free-flow electrophoresis (CFFE), a multi- component separation process gaining in popularity. The discovery addresses a critical need for the development of preparative chiral separations, speeding up the process for obtaining pure enantiomers of chiral drugs from aqueous solutions.
According to Apryll Marie Stalcup, by applying CFFE to bulk scale aqueous chiral separations, the researchers are able to obtain mg/ to g/hour quantities of pure …
