Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the use of vapor deposition coated flow paths for improved chromatography and sample analysis using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS) or liquid chromatography-optical detection (LC/UV). More specifically, this technology relates to separating and quantitation of analytes (e.g., phospho prodrugs and its phosphorylated metabolites) from a sample matrix (e.g., mammalian blood, plasma) using chromatographic devices and fluidic systems having coated flow paths. The LC-MS or LC-UV techniques provide improved recovery, peak shape and dynamic range in the analysis of the prodrug and its metabolites.

Abstract: A catalytically active glass-ceramic and method for producing a catalytically active multi-phase glass-ceramic in which at least one catalyst precursor is mixed with a glass-ceramic precursor formulation to form a catalyst precursor/glass-ceramic precursor mixture. The catalyst precursor/glass-ceramic precursor mixture is then melted to form an amorphous glass material which, in turn, is devitrified to form a polycrystalline ceramic. The polycrystalline ceramic is then activated, forming a catalytically active multi-phase glass-ceramic.
