The Purnell equation is an equation used in analytical chemistry to calculate the resolution R s between two peaks in a chromatogram. [1] [2]= (′ + ′) where R s is the resolution between the two peaks
Chromatographic peak resolution is given by = + where t R is the retention time and w b is the peak width at baseline. The bigger the time-difference and/or the smaller the bandwidths, the better the resolution of the compounds.
The response factor can be expressed on a molar, volume or mass [1] basis. Where the true amount of sample and standard are equal: = where A is the signal (e.g. peak area) and the subscript i indicates the sample and the subscript st indicates the standard. [2]
So what does this mean? It means that to increase resolution of two peaks on a chromatogram, one of the three terms of the equation need to be modified. 1) N can be increased by lengthening the column (least effective, as doubling the column will get a 2 1/2 or 1.44x increase in resolution). 2) Increasing k' also helps.
OpenChrom is an open source software for the analysis and visualization of mass spectrometric and chromatographic data. [4] Its focus is to handle native data files from several mass spectrometry systems (e.g. GC/MS, LC/MS, Py-GC/MS, HPLC-MS), vendors like Agilent Technologies, Varian, Shimadzu, Thermo Fisher, PerkinElmer and others.
The method interpolates peaks between bracketing n-alkanes. The Kovats index of n-alkanes is 100 times their carbon number, e.g. the Kovats index of n-butane is 400. The Kovats index is dimensionless, unlike retention time or retention volume. For isothermal gas chromatography, the Kovats index is given by the equation:
The van Deemter equation is a hyperbolic function that predicts that there is an optimum velocity at which there will be the minimum variance per unit column length and, thence, a maximum efficiency. The van Deemter equation was the result of the first application of rate theory to the chromatography elution process.
Chromatography software is called also Chromatography Data System. [1] It is located in the data station of the modern liquid, gas or supercritical fluid chromatographic systems. This is a dedicated software connected to an hardware interface within the chromatographic system, which serves as a central hub for collecting, analyzing, and ...
