A system was developed that generates two gradients simultaneously, 180 degrees out of phase. Essential elements of the system were a pump delivering solvent A at a constant velocity, a pump delivering solvent B at a constant velocity, two mixing chambers, and a ten-port valve. By use of this gradient device and two reversed-phase columns packed with 1000-A pore diameter, 8-microns particle size macroporous poly-(styrene-divinylbenzene) resin, six proteins were separated in 40 s in a single gradient cycle.
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.
