Abstract:
The voltage-induced variation of capacity factors of neutral compounds in pressurized flow driven capillary electrochromatography were investigated.
The capillary column packed with hexa-6-bromo-hexa-6-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin modified silica gel and neutral solutes were used.
The capacity factors of four neutral solutes were able to vary with the application of voltage. All solutes took maximum capacity factors with
the application of -3 kV. The voltage-induced variation of relative capacity factor did not depend on the kind of solutes. The variation of the
column conductance was also observed. The comparison between hexa-6-bromo-hexa-6-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin and ODS modified columns
suggested that the surface charge of the packing material is one of the key factor of the voltage-induced phenomena. The direct control of the
retention behavior might be possible by using application of the voltage in same extent.
