Chromatographic Process Chromatographic separations are based on transporting the liquid carrying the analyte mixture (mobile ph. ) through the porous media (stationary ph.) and the differences in the interactions of analytes with the surface of this porous media resulting in different migration times (retention times) for a mixture components.
Mobile phase Provides the analyte transport. Immobile phase. Mixture of components dispersed in the mobile phase. • Stationary phase • Analyte
Classification The nature of the stationary and the mobile phases, with the mode of the transport through the column, is the basis for the classification of chromatographic methods.
Solvent Reservoirs: Storage of HPLC solvents (mobile phase) and could be equipped with an online degassing system and special filters. pump Provides the constant and continuous flow of the mobile phase through the system. Modern pump allow mixing of different solvents from different reservoirs. Injector: Allows the introduction (injection) of the analytes mixture into the stream of the mobile phase before it enters the column. Modern injectors are autosamplers.
Column: It is a device that hold a stationary phase in place, allowing the mobile phase to carry an injected sample through and allowing analytes to interact with available surface. Guard column: A short column introduced before the analytical column to increase its life by removing particulate matter and contaminants. Detectors: A device for continuous registration of specific physical properties of the column effluent
Stationary phase • It is the column packing material that are the media producing the separation. • The properties of this media are important for successful separations.

HPLC parameters • Dead volume. • Retention volume (VR). • Retention time (tR). • Void time (t₀). • Capacity factor (K). • Selectivity (ᾳ) • Efficiency. • Resolution (R). • Peak symmetry factor (s).
Dead volume: Volume of mobile phase inside the column . • V₀= V column – V particle + V pores. • =0.65 (µD²L/4) where dead volume equal 65% of empty column volume • Retention volume (VR). Total volume of eluent (in ml) require to elute certain substance. VR= tR* F
Retention time (tR). Time from injection point to maximum detector response for corresponding compound. • Void time (t₀). Time require for non retaine substance to pass through the column. • Capacity factor (K) Use to describe the migration rate of solutes on columns. K=(tR -t₀ )/t₀ Recommended to be 2-10 • Selectivity (ᾳ) Use to describe the separation of band centre ᾳ =K2/K1 should be > 1.2
Efficiency. • It is measured in number of theoretical plates. • N= 16 ( tR/w)². • H=L/N • *H plate height. • *column length. • Resolution (R). R = 2(t R2 –t R1) / (w2 +w1) Should be 1.5 • Peak symmetry factor (s)
