RESUMO
The immobilized polysaccharide-derived chiral stationary phases (CSPs) combine the benefits of broad application scope and high preparative potential with CSP robustness and universal solvent compatibility. Strategies for efficient and straightforward method development with these CSPs were previously overviewed. In the current study, six CSPs with different structural features in the immobilized series were examined for their complementary properties in separation of enantiomers. Some method development aspects related to polysaccharide-derived CSPs in general and certain specific features observed on these immobilized supports, such as the effects of mobile phase, sample solvent and mobile phase additive on chiral separation, are also discussed.

To investigate factors affecting the low lean body mass (LBM) of young women, we focused on the increase in body weight until one year of age and current lifestyles. In 442 young women, the increase in body weight from birth until one year of age, breast-feeding method in infancy, current physique index and body composition, and physique and lifestyles were investigated using a questionnaire. Subjects with an LBM percentile of less than 33.3 (less than 36.8 kg) were classified as having a low LBM (n = 150), and those with a 33.3 or higher LBM percentile as the control (n = 293). Based on body weight changes from birth to days 3 and 7, the subjects were divided into a rapid weight gain group and two non-rapid weight gain groups (groups 1-3). To analyze factors involved in a low LBM, multivariate analysis using a logistic model was employed. The prevalence of a low LBM in the rapid weight gain group was 0.41 times higher than in the others. The prevalence of a low LBM with a low birth weight was 0.58 times higher, indicating that a low birth weight is likely to result in a low LBM. Regarding the lifestyles, the prevalence of a low LBM in subjects with a current breakfasting habit was 0.60 times higher than in those without one. These findings suggest that the thinness of young women characterized by a low LBM is associated with the increase in body weight until one year of age and current lifestyles.
