Chromatography Separation and Detection •Encompasses several related techniques where analyte specificity is achieved by physical separation •Partition analytes between a stationary and mobile phase •Stationary: very fine particles aranged in a thin layer •Mobile (moving): phase flows thru spaces between particles •After separation--need a detection phase •However, can have provisional identification based on their characteristic velocities, distance traveled, or time to traverse the chromatography column •Not specific
Rf = Rf migration distance of substance migration distance of solvent front • Retention time • Time required to traverse the column • Retardation (planar) or retention (column) • Separation based on polarity, affinity, solubility, etc. • Standard for each analyte
