The simple and effective transfer of microliter volumes of distillate from condenser to receiver through the use of capillary siphons is described. Stills embodying this principle have been used successfully for the fractional and molecular distillation of centigram and decigram quantities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
