Parameters Affecting the Separation of Intact Proteins in Gradient-elution Reversed-phase Chromatography Using Poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) Monolithic Capillary Columns by Frederik Detobel; Ken Broeckhoven; Joke Wellens; Bert Wouters; Remco Swart; Mario Ursem; Gert Desmet; Sebastiaan Eeltink is a Chemistry article available to read on EtoBox.
An experimental study was performed to investigate the effects of column parameters and gradient conditions on the separation of intact proteins using styrene-based monolithic columns. The effect of flow rate on peak width was investigated at constant gradient steepness by normalizing the gradient time for the column hold-up time. When operating the column at a temperature of 60 • C a small C-term effect was observed in a flow rate range of 1-4 L/min. However, the C-term effect on peak width is not as strong as the decrease in peak width due to increasing flow rate. The peak capacity increased according to the square root of the column length. Decreasing the macropore size of the polymer monolith while maintaining the column length constant, resulted in an increase in peak capacity. A trade-off between peak capacity and total analysis time was made for 50, 100, and 250 mm long monolithic columns and a microparticulate column packed with 5 m porous silica particles while operating at a flow rate of 2 L/min. The peak capacity per unit time of the 50 mm long monolithic column with small pore size was superior when the total analysis time is below 120 min, yielding a maximum peak capac
