Flow Rate Control in Pressure- Programmed Capillary Supercritical Fluid Chromatography

چکیده

A versatile and simple system is described that allows variation of the column flow rate in open-tubular capillary supercritical fluid chromatography using both on-column and postcolumn detection. The system is based on column-effluent splitting in a low-dead-volume T piece at the column exit just before detection. The flow is split into two streams. One stream is fed to a flame ionization detector, and the second is used to control the overall mass flow through the column. Flow through linear restrictors is studied as a function of the pressure drop over the restrictor at ambient temperature. We derived a simple relationship from this study that quantifies the flow rate characteristics of the dual-restrictor system as a function of the column pressure and the restrictor back pressure. The variable-flow system was employed to control independently column pressure and mass flow rate in pressure-programmed analysis. Resolution in flow-controlled pressure-programmed elution was shown to be superior to that achieved in fixed-restrictor systems. Furthermore, the applicability of the system as a convenient means of measuring Van Deemter curves and diffusion coefficients is demonstrated.

Supercritical fluid chromatography and microbore liquid chromatography for drug analysis.

Supercritical fluid and microbore liquid chromatography offer potential applications for drug analysis. In supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), the mobile phase is a gas (e.g., carbon dioxide) maintained at its supercritical state--that is, above its critical temperature and pressure, above which it cannot be liquefied even with further increases in applied pressure. The SFC mobile phase h...

Molecularly Imprinted Polymers for the Identification and Separation of Chiral Drugs and Biomolecules

Molecularly imprinting polymers (MIPs) have been extensively applied in chromatography for the separation of chiral drugs. In this review, we mainly summarize recent developments of various MIPs used as chiral stationary phases (CSPs) in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), capillary electrochromatography (CEC), and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC). Among them, HPLC has the ad...

Dispersion Coefficients of Supercritical Fluid in Fixed Beds

The axial dispersion coefficient of hexachlorobenzene in supercritical carbon dioxide is investigated in a fixed-bed packed with glass beads. The on-line chromatographic pulse-response experiment is used in order to study the dynamics of a packed column under supercritical conditions. The radial dispersion is assumed negligible because of the packed column geometry. To estimate the axial disper...
