Reports retention

Cultured-cell assays also are subject to sample retention by the monolayer. Wils et al. [24] reported retentions as high as 44%, whereas Sawada et al. [25-27] cited values as high as 89%. This is undoubtedly a common phenomenon with research compounds, which are often highly lipophilic, yet the effect seems to be ignored in most reported studies. 

This method is used for S-methyl methimazole on a 10% Apiezon L + 5% KOH/Chromosob W column at 100° with N carrier gas. The method is more sensitive and more precise than TLC method, but duplicate measurements must be made on the same day due to instability of S-methylmethimazole (32). Clarke (4) reported retention time of 0.43 relative to diphenhydramine under condition of methimazole described in the monograph. 

In order to determine the applicability of retention indices, based on the alkyl arylketone scale, as the basis of a reproducible method of reporting retentions, the separation of 10 barbiturates and a set of column test compounds were examined on an octadecylsilyl bonded silica (ODS-Hypersil) column with methanol-buffer of pH 8.5 as eluent [100]. The effects on the capacity factors and retention indices, on changing the eluent composition, pH, ionic strengthened temperature, showed that the retention indices of the barbiturates were much less susceptible to minor changes in the eluent than the capacity factors. 

Progress of the reaction was monitored using a GC equipped with a FID on an achiral CP 1301 capillary column (30 m x 0.25 mm x 0.25 m film) and N2 as carrier gas. Enantiomeric purity of 2-octanol was analysed after derivatization with acetic anhydride (see below) using a CP-Chirasil Dex-CB column (25 m x 0.32 mm x 0.25 pm film, column B) and H2 as carrier gas. Enantioselectivities (expressed as the enantiomeric ratio E) were calculated from enantiomeric excess of the product and conversion as previously reported. Retention times and methods are listed in Table 3.1. 

A 25-m x 0.3-mm HP Ultra Silicone capillary column at 70°C with 30 psi helium head pressure was used for the chromatographic analysis retention times of 3-buten-l-ol and cyclobutanol are 1.19 min and 1.35 min, respectively. The submitters used a 3-m x 0.3-cm 20 M carbowax column at 90°C/8 psi hydrogen and they reported retention times of 13 m1n and 20 min for 3-buten-l-ol and cyclohutanol, respectively. 

Many factors can influence the Kovats index which can make it unreliable at times for the characterization of gas chromatographic behavior, although it generally varies less than the relative retention with temperature, flow, and column variation. However, for many it is the preferred method of reporting retention data. 

Forfar et al. (F7) have studied phosphorus metabolism in 2 active cases of idiopathic hypercalcemia. The average retention of phosphorus on a mean intake of 0.9 g/day was 43 % (0.39 g). Morgan et al. (M3) have reported retentions of 46 % and 37 % in two infants, the actual daily retentions being 0.30 g and 0.18 g, respectively.

Corina [147] reported retention data of benzyl esters of a number of acids from various biological materials on E-30 silicone stationary phase. 

Sund et al. 101) and also Wallace et al. 20) reported retention characteristics of poly(vinyl chloride) powders of differing specific surface areas. It was shown that, once a calibration curve was established, gas chromatography could provide a rapid determination of surface areas of poly(vinyl chloride) powders. At temperatures below Tg the measured retention volume should be proportional to the surface partition coefficient and to the surface area of the stationary phase as expressed in Eq. (28). From the known airface areas of several samples the partition coefficient can be obtained, in turn allowing for the determination of the surface area of any sample from the measured retention volume. A similar correlation between BET surface areas and retention volumes was reported by Salovey et al. 102) for poly(vinyl chloride) powders. 

To standardize reported retention times for a given column, manufacturers often report adjusted or relative retention factors rather than distribution constants. The adjusted retention time of a given compound is reported relative to the retention time of an unretained component. The relative distribution coefficient is reported relative to the distribution coefficient of a reference compound ... 

IS) have reported retention time data for GAC separati On diumina which do not correlate with the relative adsorption of tfie. carrier gas. However, these data have since been reinterpreted in tefmsdf a completely different effect (13a) increasing retention times for more viscous gases (i.e., in this case retention times were not proportional to retention volumes). 

Although isothermal (KI) and linear (LRI) retention indices have close values, they are not identical. Therefore, when reporting retention indices it is important to indicate what type of index was calculated. LRI actually depend on the initial column temperature, the heating rate, stationary phase pelarity and its state (contamination, activity, and fabricant). In fact. 

However, relative retention volumes are more reproducible than individual retention volumes, so qualitative data should be reported on a relative basis. The retention index attributed to Kovats (see Chapter 4) has become a reliable method for reporting retention data. If a retention parameter is to be used for qualitative identification or classification, the Kovats retention index is a good method to choose. 

The tool hi chromet compares the results of the chromatogram simulation with those of the respective separation methods after completing the report. Retention time, area, and height for each peak are listed individually. In Table 7.2, the results are shown as an example with reference to the surface.

Again, Brook was responsible for some of the earliest studies in this area. Initially, he reported retention of configuration at carbon in the rearrangement. However, Brook s later studies on related systems,... 

The stationary phases requirements of selectivity and higher thermal stability then became more clearly defined the process of stationary-phase selection and classification became logical after the studies of McReynolds (28) and Rohrschneider (29,30) were pubUshed, both of which were based on the retention index (31). The Kovats retention index procedure and McReynolds constants are discussed in detail in the following section. Kovats retention indices today remain a widely used technique for reporting retention data, while every stationary phase developed for packed and capillary GC has been characterized by generation of its McReynolds constants.
