  3. Topic 1:Introduction to Counter-Current Chromatography (CCC) & CPC

  4. Counter Current Chromatography (CCC) • A separation technique that involves two liquid phases flowing in opposite direction. • Analogous to other chromatographic methods: The stationary phase and the mobile phase result in a relative countercurrent motion. • Both stationary and mobile phases are liquids. • Separation is based on the partition co-efficient () of the components in mixture.

  5. Partition Coefficient • For a given substance “A” the partition coefficient is defined as: • aA= [A] upper phase/[A] lower phase • aAis a constant at any given temperature, and unaffected by the presence of other substances or concentration of the solute in question. [A] [A]

  6. When a compound is dissolved in a mixture of two liquids, the compound will concentrate more in one of the liquids. The compact CPC unit uses over one thousand extraction cells in a high speed spinning disk pack to separate and purify the desired compound. Each cell increases the purity of the desired compound until a high purity product is created. The Basis of CPC Technology

  7. Summary of CPC Technology CENTRIFUGAL PARTITION CHROMATOGRAPHY • CPC is derived from CCC. • A new liquid chromatographic technique utilizing liquid-liquid partition and counter-current distribution of solutes between 2 immiscible liquid phases. • No solid support for the stationary phase is involved. • Stationary phase solvents are retained in the column by the action of centrifugal force.

  8. Topic 2: CPC Instrument Setup & Components

  9. CPC Rotor Elements Partition Disc Partition Channels Partition Disc Pack

  10. The Inner Workings of the CPC

  11. Topic 3: The Advantages of CPC Technology

  12. The Advantages of CPC Technology CPC HPLC No column Expensive columns High recovery Irreversible adsorption High throughput Poor loadability Retention of fragile Loss of biological activity Compounds (molecular integrity) (denaturation) Volume ratio of stationary/mobile Ratio is low very high (better resolution)

  13. Topic 4:Applications of CPC Technology

  14. CPC Technology has Applications in the Following Industries Nutraceutical Fine Chemicals Pharmaceutical Bio-Medical Biotechnology Fats and Oils Fermentation

  15. Compounds That Can Be Isolated in High Purity by CPC Technology Saponins Alkaloids Chlorophylls Tannins Carotenoids Phospholipids Fat soluble vitamins Mono/Oligo-saccharides Anthocyanins Lignans Phenolic compounds Synthetic Compounds Other active compounds present in plants (e.g., herbs and spices) Much more!

  16. Fractionation of Tea Polyphenols by CPC Isolation of tea catechins by CPC technology Solvent system: Chloroform/methanol/n-propanol/water (9:12:2:8 v/v) Purity was determined by HPLC Source: Okuda et al., J. Liqud Chromato. (1990)

  17. Purification of Ginsenosidesfrom Ginseng Isolation of Ginsenosides by CPC technology Solvent system: Ethyl acetate/1-butanol/water Purity was determined by TLC Source: Le et al., J. Liqud Chromato. (1995)
