Separation of peptides by fast and simple two-dimensional (2D)-HPLC was studied using a monolithic silica column as a second-dimension (2nd-D) column. Every fraction from the first column, 5 cm long (2.1 mm ID) packed with polymer-based cation exchange beads, was subjected to separation in the 2nd-D using an octaclecylsilylated (C-18) monolithic silica column (4.6 mm ID, 2.5 cm). A capillary-type monolithic silica C-18 column (0.1 mm ID, 10 cm) was also employed as a 2nd-D column with split flow/injection. Effluent of the first dimension (1st-D) was directly loaded into an injector loop of 2nd-D HPLC. UV and MS detection were successfully carried out at high linear velocity of mobile phase at 2nd-D using flow splitting for the 4.6 mm ID 2nd-D column, or with direct connection of the capillary column to the MS interface. Two-minute fractionation in the 1st-D, 118-second loading, and 2-second injection by the 2nd-D injector, allowed one minute for gradient separation in the 2nd-D, resulting in a maximum peak capacity of about 700 within 40 min. The use of a capillary column in the 2nd-D led to less solvent consumption and better MS detectability compared to a larger-sized column. This kind of fast and simple 2D-HPLC utilizing monolithic silica columns will be useful for the separation of complex mixtures in a short time.
