Description

Amino acids are important biological compounds that are associated with peptides and proteins, and occupy an important position in the food and pharmaceutical industries. With their simple structures and the ready availability of both enantiomers, amino acids not only serve as a chiral pool for synthesis but also provide an inexpensive pool for resolution studies as either the racemate for resolution or the chiral selector for resolution of racemic mixtures of several other compounds. The development of analytical methods that can be applied for separation and identification and resolution of enantiomers of chiral compounds, including the control of optical purity, remains an area of interest and importance.

The advantage of micro-TFFF is thus significant in terms of lower power consumption and less solvent with respect to conventional TFFF
--Journal of Separation Science

Description

Microthermal field-flow fractionation (micro-TFFF) is a new method of polymer and particle separation and analysis based on the effect of thermal diffusion (Ludwig-Soret effect); the relationships between molecular characteristics of the separated macromolecular and particulate species such as molar mass, particle size, chemical nature, and composition; and their distribution and separation characteristics such as retention. The book begins with a description of the theoretical principles of FFF, which apply equally to micro-TFFF, although the latter technique offers a number of important operational advantages, including superior cold-wall temperature regulation. Practical analytical aspects of experimental data analysis are discussed in detail. Typical methodological applications of micro-TFFF are given for polymers and particles of synthetic, natural, or biological origin. The book will be of interest to university and R&D scientists involved in the analysis and characterization of polymers, biopolymers, particles, and biological cells in polymer chemistry, colloid and interface science, microbiology, and the environmental sciences.
