  • Flash chromatography differs from the conventional technique in two ways: first, slightly smaller silica gel particles (250-400 mesh) are used, and second, due to restricted flow of solvent caused by the small gel particles, pressurized gas ( ca. 10-15 psi) is used to drive the solvent through the column of stationary phase.

  • The mobile phase or eluent is either a pure solvent or a mixture of different solvents. (blogspot.com)
  • If the solvent is forced down the column by positive air pressure, it is called flash chromatography, a "state of the art" method currently used in organic chemistry research laboratories 1 . (ijpsr.com)
  • In flash chromatography however air pressure is used to speed up the flow of solvent, dramatically decreasing the time needed to purify the sample, therefore making the column and running the separation could take less than 10-15 minutes. (ijpsr.com)

  • NP-LC has been widely used to separate various compounds, from nonpolar to highly polar compounds (note that chromatography was first introduced as a method used in separation science). (springer.com)
  • For example, it is suitable for analyzing compounds in complex systems that always elute near the void in reserved-phase chromatography. (springer.com)
  • A desirable mobile phase would contain high organic content for better sensitivity and also show good on-column retention for polar ionic compounds. (springer.com)
  • Polar samples always show good solubility in the aqueous mobile phase used in HILIC, which overcomes the drawbacks of the poor solubility often encountered in NP-LC. (springer.com)
  • Chromatography on non-ionic gels without regard to the mechanism of solute discrimination. (lookformedical.com)
  • For historical reasons, it has been reported that HILIC is a variant of normal phase liquid chromatography, but the separation mechanism used in HILIC is more complicated than that in NP-LC. (springer.com)
  • There is an important ratio between the stationary phase weight and the dry weight of the analyte mixture that can be applied onto the column. (blogspot.com)
  • A solution of the organic material is pipetted on top of the stationary phase. (blogspot.com)

  • In normal phase liquid chromatography (NP-LC), the stationary phase is more polar than the mobile phase. (springer.com)
  • The retention increases as the polarity of the mobile phase decreases, and thus polar analytes are more strongly retained than nonpolar ones. (springer.com)
