Conformations of Star-Branched Polyelectrolytes
1996
Scaling theory describing the conformations of weakly charged star-branched polyelectrolytes in dilute and semi-dilute salt-free solutions is developed. The dependence of the star size on the number of branches as well as on the solution concentration is analyzed. It is shown that the star size increases with an increase in the number of branches, f, at small f and tends to a constant value at large f. An increase in the concentration of stars in a solution results in a decrease in the star size R according to the power low : R ∼ c -1/3 in the range of a moderate concentration and R ∼ c -1/4 at larger concentration. For stars with a small number of branches the behavior R ∼ c -1/2 in a cert…
Evaluation of advanced silica packings for the separation of biopolymers by high-performance liquid chromatography
1989
Abstract The linear solvent strength model of Snyder was applied to describe fast protein separations on 2.1-μm non-porous, silica-based strong anion exchangers. It was demonstrated on short columns packed with these anion exchangers that (i) a substantially higher resolution of proteins and nucleotides was obtained at gradient times of less than 5 min than on porous anion exchangers; (ii) the low external surface area of the non-porous anion exchanger is not a critical parameter in analytical separations and (iii) μg-amounts of enzymes of high purity and full biological activity were isolated.
Extension of the linear solvent strength retention model including a parameter that describes the elution strength changes in liquid chromatography.
2020
Modelling the retention behaviour of solutes in liquid chromatography, based on the composition of the mobile phase is a common task in the chromatographic practice. Along the development of liquid chromatography (LC), several models have been proposed to help in understanding the retention mechanisms, and especially, allow the prediction of retention times with optimisation purposes. Particular models are used for different LC modes, such as normal phase (NPLC), reversed phase (RPLC), hydrophilic interaction (HILIC), and micellar (MLC). In this work, a general equation is proposed that includes a parameter (the elution degree, g), which characterises the way the elution strength varies wit…
