Changes in peak shape which accompany the imposition of an electric field were examined by moments analysis. Although peak maxima shifted signficantly, only slight changes were observed in the value of the peak mean. Column efficiencies calculated from the second central moment indicated that the field lowered the resistance to mass transfer, probably as a result of electric field-induced convection of the stationary phase.
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.
