Negative chromatography

Because micelles are negatively charged, they migrate toward the cathode with a velocity less than the electroosmotic flow velocity. Neutral species partition themselves between the micelles and the buffer solution in much the same manner as they do in HPLC. Because there is a partitioning between two phases, the term chromatography is used. Note that in MEKC both phases are mobile. ... 

A review pubHshed ia 1984 (79) discusses some of the methods employed for the determination of phenytoia ia biological fluids, including thermal methods, spectrophotometry, luminescence techniques, polarography, immunoassay, and chromatographic methods. More recent and sophisticated approaches iaclude positive and negative ion mass spectrometry (80), combiaed gas chromatography—mass spectrometry (81), and ftir immunoassay (82). 

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (eflsa) has been developed for the detection of residues on hands. As Httle as 50 pg of TNT can be detected (126). Liquid chromatography/thermospray negative-ion tandem ms has been successfully used to detect picogram levels of explosives in post-blast debris (127). 

The model was tested by the micellar liquid chromatography separ ation of the five rarbornicin derivatives and four ethers of hydroxybenzoic acid. Micellar mobile phases were made with the sodium dodecylsulfate and 1-pentanol or isopentanol as modifier. In all cases the negative signs of the coefficients x and y indicate that at transition of the sorbat from the mobile on the stationar y phase the number of surfactant monomers as well as the number of modifier molecules increases in its microenvironment. 

Vacancy chromatography is a special method of development that can provide both negative and positive peaks in the chromatogram. It is not commonly used, although... 

Paper chromatography (benzene-chloroform 1 1—formamide system) of representative chromatogram fractions indicates the presence of a small quantity of a more polar ultraviolet absorbing component that gives a negative blue tetrazolium test and a very polar component (no ultraviolet negative tetrazolium test). These materials have not been characterized.

A number of analytical techniques such as FTIR spectroscopy,65-66 13C NMR,67,68 solid-state 13 C NMR,69 GPC or size exclusion chromatography (SEC),67-72 HPLC,73 mass spectrometric analysis,74 differential scanning calorimetry (DSC),67 75 76 and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA)77 78 have been utilized to characterize resole syntheses and crosslinking reactions. Packed-column supercritical fluid chromatography with a negative-ion atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometric detector has also been used to separate and characterize resoles resins.79 This section provides some examples of how these techniques are used in practical applications.

Shortly afterwards, Westphal, Liideritz, and their coworkers using the newly developed method of paper chromatography, found a new class of sugars in lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from Gram-negative bacteria, and identified them as 3,6-dideoxyhexoses. This work is summarized in Ref. 4. These discoveries initiated more-systematic investigations of hydrolyzates from bacterial polysaccharides, and a number of new monosaccharides were completely or partially identified. This development has been summarized by Ashwell and Hickman. ...
