High-performance liquid chromatography parameters

An electrochemical detector using a static mercury drop electrode has been optimized for combination with high-performance liquid chromatography. Parameters like pump noise, oxygen in mobile phase and sample solution, nozzle, flow rate, working potential in the d.c. - and the d.p.p.- mode, have been examined. The application of the method in routine analysis has been illustrated by the analysis of the anticancer agent mitomycin C in plasma. 

High-Performance liquid Chromatography. Typical performances for various experimental conditions are given in Table 11.15. The data assume these reduced parameters h = 3, V = 4.5. The reduced plate height is... 

The octanol-water parhtion coefficient. Poet (often reported as log Poet), is a particularly useful parameter in quantitative structure-achvity relationships, apphed to predichon of properhes related to drug absorphon, distribution, metabohsm and excrehon [61, 62]. Although the traditional log Poet measurements have been done by the shake-flask method [63, 64], high-performance liquid chromatography-... 

Finally, and apart from the importance of micelles in the solubilization of chemical species, mention should also be made of their intervention in the displacement of equilibria and in the modification of kinetics of reactions, as well as in the alteration of physicochemical parameters of certain ions and molecules that affect electrochemical measurements, processes of visible-ultraviolet radiation, fluorescence and phosphorescence emission, flame emission, and plasma spectroscopy, or in processes of extraction, thin-layer chromatography, or high-performance liquid chromatography [2-4, 29-33],... 

Reindt and Hoffler [50] optimized parameters in the supercritical fluid extraction of polyaromatic hydrocarbons from soil. These workers used carbon dioxide -8% methanol for extraction and obtained 88-101% recovery of polyaromatic hydrocarbons in the final high-performance liquid chromatography. 

This chapter focuses on approaches to the validation of high-performance liquid chromatography methods based on regulatory guidance documents and accepted industry practices. The information in this chapter gives a brief review of the reasons for performing method validation and the regulations that describe this activity. Individual validation parameters are discussed in relation to the type of method to be validated. Examples of typical validation conditions are presented with references to additional information on individual topics. This chapter was written to help analysts responsible for method validation.

The following table provides some comparative data for the selection and operation of the more common detectors applied to high-performance liquid chromatography.15 In general, the operational parameters provided are for optimized systems and represent the maximum obtainable in terms of sensitivity and linearity. In this table, the molar extinction coefficient is represented by s. 

The following table contains the common solvents used in thin-layer chromatography, with a measure of their strengths on silica gel and alumina. The solvent strength parameter, s°, is defined as the relative energy of adsorption per unit area of standard adsorbent.13 It is defined as zero on alumina when pentane is used as the solvent. This series is what was called the eluotropic series in the older literature. For convenience, the solvent viscosity is also provided. Note that the viscosity is tabulated in cP for the convenience of most users. This is equivalent to mPasec in the SI convention. Additional data on these solvents may be found in the tables on high-performance liquid chromatography. 

The determination of substance J and related compounds in tablets will be transferred according to the tests described in this protocol. The chromatographic parameters for these experiments are as stated in the method, assay of substance J and the determination of related compounds in tablets by high-performance liquid chromatography. ... 

Steuer et al. compared supercritical fluid chromatography with capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for its application in pharmaceutical analysis [24]. Efficiency, performance, sensitivity, optimization, sample preparation, ease of method development, technical capabilities, and orthogonality of the information were the parameters studied. They concluded that SFC is ideal for moderately polar compounds, such as excipients, for which mass detection is required.
