High-performance liquid chromatography development

It was known from gas chromatographic theory that efficiency could be improved if the particle size of the stationary phase materials used in lc could be reduced. High performance liquid chromatography developed steadily during the late 1960s as these high efficiency materials were produced, and as improvements in instrumentation allowed the full potential of these materials to be realised. As hplc has developed, the particle size of the stationary phase used has...

As a result of these merits thin layer chromatography finds application all over the world. The frequency of its application is documented in Figure 3. This CA search only includes those publications where TLC/HPTLC are included as key words. The actual application of the method is very much more frequent. The method is employed as a matter of course in many areas of quality control and routine monitoring of product purity. This was also true in the 1970s when the rapid development of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLG) led to a... 

In 1972, Kirkland at E. I. du Pont de Nemours patented porous silica microspheres (PSM) specifically for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) applications (3). Prior to this development, silica particles used for chromatographic applications were simply adapted from some other use. In the 1970s, Kirkland showed that porous silica particles could be used for size-... 

Unfortunately, most column and sorbent manufacturers do not develop column packing materials mainly for SEC work, but for the bigger high-performance liquid chromatography (HPEC) market. However, there are many important differences to consider when designing packings for different modes of chroma-... 

SynChropak GPC supports were introduced in 1978 as the first commercial columns for high-performance liquid chromatography of proteins. SynChropak GPC columns were based on research developed by Fred Regnier and coworkers in 1976 (1,2). The first columns were only available in 10-yu,m particles with a 100-A pore diameter, but as silica technology advanced, the range of available pore diameters increased and 5-yu,m particle diameters became available. SynChropak GPC and CATSEC occasionally were prepared on larger particles on a custom basis, but generally these products have been intended for analytical applications. 

High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is an excellent technique for sample preseparation prior to GC injection since the separation efficiency is high, analysis time is short, and method development is easy. An LC-GC system could be fully automated and the selectivity characteristics of both the mobile and stationary... 

Despite the difficulties caused by the rapidly expanding literature, the use of chiral stationary phases (CSPs) as the method of choice for analysis or preparation of enantiomers is today well established and has become almost routine. It results from the development of chiral chromatographic methods that more than 1000 chiral stationary phases exemplified by several thousands of enantiomer separations have been described for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). 

New types of ion exchange resins have also been developed to meet the specific needs of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (Chapter 8). These include pellicular resins and microparticle packings (e.g. the Aminex-type resins produced by Bio-Rad). A review of the care, use and application of the various ion exchange packings available for HPLC is given in Ref. 19. 

In this book, I have tried to show the way in which high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) has developed, somewhat slowly it has to be said, into a powerful hybrid analytical technique. 

In a study of the metabolism of methyl parathion in intact and subcellular fractions of isolated rat hepatocytes, a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been developed that separates and quantitates methyl parathion and six of its hepatic biotransformation products (Anderson et al. 1992). The six biotransformation products identified are methyl paraoxon, desmethyl parathion, desmethyl paraoxon, 4-nitrophenol, />nitrophenyl glucuronide, and /wiitrophenyl sulfate. This method is not an EPA or other standardized method, and thus it has not been included in Table 7-1.
