Carboxylic acids with a halide, hydroxy or amino group in the a-position form no dimers (Table 2, No. 11), except when two or three fluorine atoms are pr ent there (Table 2, No. 12). A large amount of work has been devoted to the coupling of fluoro-carboxylic acids (Table 2, Nos. 13-16) due to interesting properties of the produced fluorohydrocarbons. By statistical analysis optimal conditions for Kolbe ela trolysis of perfluorinated acids have been calculated [135]. 

InsAument parameters (sheath and auxiliary gas flows, spray voltage, capillary temperature, collision cell gas flow and offset, etc.) should be optimized while infusing a standard of tebuconazole prior to the Arst attempt at analysis. Optimization should be performed at an HPLC Aow rate and composition simulating those present during elution of tebuconazole using each HPLC condition set employed... 

In order to reduce unnecessary data queries, the statistics group should be consulted early in the clinical database development process to identify variables critical for data analysis. Optimally, the statistical analysis plan would already be written by the time of database development so that the queries could be designed based on the critical variables indicated in the analysis plan. However, at the database development stage, usually only the clinical protocol exists to guide the statistics and clinical data management departments in developing the query or data management plan.

Extraction is an essential step when analyzing solid samples. In some cases homogenization with a solvent suffices, but in others the sample must first be coimninuted. Water, solutions of acetic acid or sodium chloride, or more complex saline solutions are used as solvents. Mixtures of water and methanol or water and ethanol are also employed. The choice of solvent depends on the degree of selectivity desired in the extraction and whether the extraction yield is intended for quantitative analysis. Optimization of the extraction procedure is required in all cases, to fit the nature of the sample to be analyzed and the range of molecular weights of the peptides to be separated. For example, water has been used as the extraction solvent for cheese (33) and legumes (34). Saline solutions have been utilized to extract peptides from meat (35-38) and flour (39,40). Benedito de Barber et al. (41) examined differences in the extractability of amino acids and short peptides in various solvents (1M acetic acid, 70% ethanol, and distilled water) they concluded that extraction with 1M acetic acid yielded the maximum amino acid and peptide contents. 

Refinement approaches lead to a decreased cycle time via the faster and more efficient analysis of samples. Automation is an obvious and desirable goal to speed up the analysis, optimize the measurement, and coordinate diverse tasks. A tremendous emphasis is placed on aspects of analysis such as sample preparation and data processing and data management. Once considered to be peripheral to the actual analysis, these activities have become important elements of high throughput analysis. 

For separation of liquefied gases, the critical temperature of the distillate may be lower than the cooling water temperature, and refrigeration is nseded. The economic balance is still primarily between the first favorable and first unfavorable effects, but the refrigeration complicates the analysis. Optimization is required for selecting the best pressure, and can be lengthy and tedious if correctly performed. Shortcuts often lead to nonoptimum conclusions. Each case must be considered on its own merits. An example of such an optimization for an ethylene-ethane separation column, as well as of some optimization pitfalls, is described elsewhere (7). 

The kinetic and deactivation models were fitted by non-linear regression analysis against the experimental data using the Modest software, especially designed for the various tasks -simulations, parameter estimation, sensitivity analysis, optimal design of experiments, performance optimization - encountered in mathematical modelling [6], The main interest was to describe the epoxide conversion. The kinetic model could explain the data as can be seen in Fig. 1 and 2, which represent the data sets obtained at 70 °C and 75°C, respectively. The model could also explain the data for hydrogenated alkyltetrahydroanthraquinone.

NPC is ideally suited for the analysis of compounds prone to hydrolysis because it employs nonaqueous solvents for the modulation of retention. An example of the use of NPC in the analysis of a hydrolysable analyte was demonstrated by Chevalier et al. [28] for quality control of the production of benorylate, an ester of aspirin. A major issue in benorylate production is the potential formation of impurities suspected of causing allergic side effects therefore monitoring of this step is critical to quality control. The presence of acetylsalicylic anhydride prohibited the use of RPLC since it can be easily hydrolyzed in the water-containing mobile phase. However, an analytical method based on the use of normal-phase chromatography with alkylnitrile-bonded silica as the stationary phase provided an ideal solution to the analysis. Optimal selectivity was achieved with a ternary solvent system hexane-dichloromethane-methanol, containing 0.2 v/v% of acetic acid to prevent the ionization of acidic function and to deactivate the residual silanols. The method was validated and determined to be reproducible based on precision, selectivity, and repeatability.

These general guidelines can be applied in both qualitative and quantitative analysis. Optimization approaches are generally of more value in quantitative than in qualitative analysis. In order to obtain the lowest possible detection limits in thermospray LC/MS the system has to be optimized for each compound or group of compounds. This optimization procedure has to be repeated before each experimental series, because the parameters which cannot be systematically adjusted, such as the condition of the vaporizer and the degree of contamination, can dramatically influence the optimum settings of the other parameters. The use of isotopically labelled internal standards is advised in order to avoid the influence of the unpredictable parameters. The usefulness of extensive optimization in qualitative analysis with thermospray LC/MS can be questioned.

In all applications, the general purpose of NNs is to construct some input-output relations and to use these relations to analyze and classify data sets. NNs are now frequently used in many fields as diverse as financial market analysis, optimization tasks like solving the travelling salesman problem, finger print identification, speech recognition, text recognition and weather forecast, " just to mention a few examples.
