Naphthalenedlsulfon ate-acetonitrile as a mobHe phase alone with a crow United amine-fluorocarbon polymer suca column has shown to be an effective combination tor the separation of aliphatic anionic surfactants. Indirect conductivity and photometric detection modes are used to monitor these analytes. The retention of these surfactants Is found to depend on both the Ionic strength and the organic solvent content of the moMe phase. The mechanism of retention Is believed to be a combination of both reversed phase and Ion exchange processes. Selective separation of both C,-C12 alkanesulfonates and alkyl sulfates can be achieved In less than 9 min. Detection limits are as low as 5 ng for most analytes, with linear responses extending from at least 500 ppm to the sub-ppm level.
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.
