Complications Associated with Analysis

Like Still s reagent, tributyl[(methoxymethoxy)methyl)etannane incorporates an alcohol protective group that can be conveniently unmasked under mild acidic conditions. However, an advantageous feature of this MOM ether derivative is that, in contrast to Still s reagent, it is achiral. In many applications the introduction of an additional chiral center into synthetic intermediates is undesirable because of the complications associated with the manipulation, analysis, and purification of diastereomeric mixtures. 

Despite the theoretical complications associated with multiparameter control of retention, the experimental rewards of improved resolution and/or shorter analysis times via simultaneous, multiparameter-induced changes in selectivity and/or retention can often be great The feasibility of multi-variable control of retention in SFC and the interdependence of these variables are among the reasons that a systematic approach to optimization is essential in SFC. 

Analysis schemes developed for identifying clay minerals in the TEM based on EDS spectra (e.g., Murdoch et al.100) are inappropriate for colloidal samples dispersed on polycarbonate filters due to complications associated with the various sample-beam-substrate interactions that differ dramatically from that of ideal samples or standards with smooth polished surfaces.94 96 101 102 Correction procedures that account for the influence of particle size and morphology on x-ray spectra have been widely available for some time,101102 but these techniques have not been applied to the analysis of environmental particulates. To overcome the limitation of quantitative elemental analysis, some research groups have compared the x-ray spectra for sample colloids to the spectra for various minerals of similar size and composition under the same instrumental and sample preparation conditions to calibrate instrumental response.7 24 93 Noting the resolution problems associated with SEM analysis of submicron colloids, several research groups have chosen TEM as the primary discrete particle analysis technique,21 52 103 104 or have combined TEM analysis techniques, such as electron diffraction and x-ray microanalysis, to confirm conclusions drawn from SEM surveys.7,93 105... 

The radiation boundary condition involves the fourth power of temperature, and thus it is a nonlinear condition. As a result, the application of this boundary condition results in powers of the unknown coefficients, which makes it difficult to determine them. Therefore, it is tempting to ignore radiation exchange at a surface during a heat transfer analysis in order to avoid the complications associated with nonlinearity. This is especially the case when heat transfer at the surface is dominated by convection, and tlie role of radiation is niinor. 

In addition to recommending priorities for new vaccine development, lOM committees have also provided analysis and advice regarding complications associated with vaccines, barriers to immunization, immunization finance, and appropriate uses of vaccines. 

Bond and coworkers [36] have probed the ability of microelectrodes to determine low concentrations of electroactive species using flow injection analysis. Ferrocene was chosen as a test system to avoid any complications associated with irreversible reactions. Measuring concentrations of the order of 10 nM proved challenging and required the use of a battery operated two-electrode potentiostat because of 50-Hz noise coming from the mains power supply. Bond has also shown that it may be easier to realize low limits of detection using macro- rather than microelectrodes [37]. For example, the electrochemical detection of As (111) at a platinum electrode in an HPLC system becomes less favorable as the electrode radius decreases. Thus, while 10 nM As(III) could be detected at a 50- xm-radius microelectrode, the limit of detection increased to 500 nM when a 2.5-pm-radius electrode was used. This falloff in performance appears to arise because of imperfect seals and high stray capacitance for the smaller electrodes.

In many cases, problems cannot be overcome by biological means. This is especially true for those related to inhibition by substrate or product. There may, however, be technical solutions to these problems. Nowadays, complicated feed strategies with different substrates can be achieved through the use of flow injection analysis, on-line sensors, mass flow meters and sophisticated computer control. Such control coupled to a fed-batch mode of operation (Figure 2.5) can often eleviate problems caused by substrate inhibition. For some processes, continuous product removal can avoid the problems associated with product inhibition the various options include ...
