Cellulose thin layers are derived from natural sources and are mainly used in NP partition separation where water is bound to the hydroxyl groups and compounds move between the mobile phase and the water bound to the cellulose surface. The prepared layers can be fibrous or microcrystalline depending on the manufacturer. Recently, ProteoChrom HPTLC cellulose plates, 10 x 10 cm (Merck [HMD] Millipore) have been introduced. Other cellulose prepared plates on the market are standard TLC-sorbent layers. Cellulose sorbents bond extremely well to all supports and no binder is required in their formulations. 

Hollow Fiber with Sorbent Walls. A cellulose sorbent and dialy2ing membrane hoUow fiber was reported in 1977 by Enka Glan2stoff AG (41). This hoUow fiber, with an inside diameter of about 300 p.m, has a double-layer waU. The inner waU consists of Cuprophan ceUulose and is very thin, approximately 8 p.m. The outer waU, which is ca 40-p.m thick, consists mainly of sorbent substance bonded by ceUulose. The advantage of such a fiber is that it combines the principles of hemodialysis with those of hemoperfusion. Two such fibers have been made one with activated carbon in the fiber waU, and one with aluminum oxide, which is a phosphate binder (also see Dialysis). 

Although most nonionic organic chemicals are subject to low energy bonding mechanisms, sorption of phenyl- and other substituted-urea pesticides such as diuron to sod or sod components has been attributed to a variety of mechanisms, depending on the sorbent. The mechanisms include hydrophobic interactions, cation bridging, van der Waals forces, and charge-transfer complexes. 

Using absorbent material is time-consuming and expensive, and can contribute minute, soHd pieces of the sorbent into the system. MetaUic bonded, high surface area materials can be used instead. 

The (I)-(III)-samples sorption ability investigation for cationic dyes microamounts has shown that for DG the maximum rate of extraction is within 70-90 % at pH 3. The isotherm of S-type proves the physical character of solution process and a seeming ionic exchange. Maximal rate of F extraction for all samples was 40-60 % at pH 8 due to electrostatic forces. The anionic dyes have more significant affinity to surface researching Al Oj-samples comparatively with cationic. The forms of obtained soi ption isotherms atpH have mixed character of H,F-type chemosorption mechanism of fonuation of a primary monolayer with the further bilayers formation due to H-bonds and hydrophobic interactions. The different values of pH p for sorbents and dyes confirm their multifunctional character and distinctions in the acid-base properties of adsoi ption centers. 

These small columns,(usually 10 mm X 1-4.6 mm i.d.) are normally packed with 10-40 p.m sorbents such as Cig-bonded silica, Cg-bonded silica or styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer. These sorbents are not very selective and more selective sorbents, such as the immunosorbent (94), have also been used with good results. Coupling of SPE-gas chromatography is in fact the one most often used in environmental analysis because it reaches a high level of trace enrichment, eliminates water and elutes retained compounds easily with an organic solvent that can be injected into the gas chromatograph. 

The consideration made above allows us to predict good chromatographic properties of the bonded phases composed of the adsorbed macromolecules. On the one hand, steric repulsion of the macromolecular solute by the loops and tails of the modifying polymer ensures the suppressed nonspecific adsorptivity of a carrier. On the other hand, the extended structure of the bonded phase may improve the adaptivity of the grafted functions and facilitate thereby the complex formation between the adsorbent and solute. The examples listed below illustrate the applicability of the composite sorbents to the different modes of liquid chromatography of biopolymers. 

Plates with 0.5- to 2-mm layer thickness are normally nsed for increased loading capacity. Layers can be self-made in the laboratory, or commercially precoated preparative plates are available with silica gel, alumina, cellulose, C-2 or C-18 bonded siliea gel, and other sorbents. Resolution is lower than on thinner analytical layers having a smaller average partiele size and particle size range. Precoated plates with a preadsorbent or eoneentrating zone faeilitate application of sample bands. 

An SPE method has been developed to replace the classical LLP method. Water sample is extracted with an SPE column such as Cig and styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer (PS-2) cartridges, which consist of a reversed bonded-phase silica sorbent, provided as an extraction tool. This is a simple and rapid method, and applied to the determination of residual amounts of naproanilide, propanil, mefenacet, etc. This system determines the residual amounts of most of the pesticides and has been successfully applied to determination of pesticides in water. 

The principal adsorbents used in GSC are silica, alumina, graphltlzed carbon blacks, porous polymer beads, zeolites and cyclodextrlns [8,430,431,445]. The bonded phase sorbents discussed in section 2.2.3 could also be considered as modified adsorbents in many respects. 

The extent of fluorescence quenching often depends on the sorbent medium and is generally more severe for silica gel than for chemically bonded sorbents [183]. In many cases the emission signal can be enhanced by application of a viscous liquid to the layer before scanning the plate. Common fluorescence enhancing... 

CHARACTERISTICS OF SILICA BASED BONDED-PHASE SORBENTS... 

Although SPE can be done in a batch equilibration similar to that used in LLE, it is much more common to use a small tube (minicolumn) or cartridge packed with the solid particles. SPE is often referred to as LSE, bonded phase or sorbent extraction SPE is a refinement of open-column chromatography. The mechanisms of retention include reversed phase, normal phase, and ion exchange. 

The TLC process is an off-line process. A number of samples are chromatographed simultaneously, side-by-side. HPTLC is fast (5 min), allows simultaneous separation and can be carried out with the same carrier materials as HPLC. Silica gel and chemically bonded silica gel sorbents are used predominantly in HPTLC other stationary phases are cellulose-based [393]. Separation mechanisms are either NPC (normal-phase chromatography), RPC (reversed-phase chromatography) or IEC (ion-exchange chromatography). RPC on hydrophobic layers is not as widely used in TLC as it is in column chromatography. The resolution capabilities of TLC using silica gel absorbent as compared to C S reversed-phase absorbent have been compared for 18 commercially available plasticisers, and 52 amine and 36 phenolic AOs [394].
