Chiral separation of β-blockers by MEEKC using neutral microemulsion: Analysis of separation mechanism and further elucidation of resolution equation.

Shao-Qiang Hu et al.

Electrophoresis, 34(2), 260-268 (2012-11-20)

Based on the investigation of the effect of microemulsion charge on the chiral separation, a new chiral separation method with MEEKC employing neutral microemulsion was established. The method used a microemulsion containing 3.0% (w/v) neutral surfactant Tween 20 and 0.8%

Optimization of a method for determination of phenolic acids in exotic fruits by capillary electrophoresis.

Tatiana S Fukuji et al.

Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, 51(2), 430-438 (2009-06-24)

In this work, the separation of nine phenolic acids (benzoic, caffeic, chlorogenic, p-coumaric, ferulic, gallic, protocatechuic, syringic, and vanillic acid) was approached by a 3(2) factorial design in electrolytes consisting of sodium tetraborate buffer (STB) in the concentration range of

Separation and determination of B vitamins and essential amino acids in health drinks by CE-LIF with simultaneous derivatization.

Danyue Zhao et al.

Electrophoresis, 33(15), 2424-2432 (2012-08-14)

An efficient and sensitive method for the separation and determination of three essential amino acids and three B vitamins by CE-LIF with a simultaneous derivatization procedure was developed. The conditions for derivatization and separation of these micronutrients were investigated. FITC

How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

1 answer

  10 months ago
  
  If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
  For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
  For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

1 answer
1. Technical Support
  
  a year ago
  
  Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
