    (8) Start pumping the solvent at a flow rate less than one-half of the final flow rate. Avoid a sudden pressure surge to the column. (9) The columns are very sensitive to pressure pulsing. A pulseless pumping system should be used. (10) The columns should be equilibrated before use by allowing at least 10 column volumes of solvent to pass through the column.

    solvent should be replaced with an appropriate mobile phase for analysis. When salt-containing buffers are used as a mobile phase, purge the column for at least 1 h with salt solution containing 5 % of a water-soluble organic solvent (e.g., 200 mmol/L ammonium formate/ acetonitrile= 95/5, v/v) to exchange the counter- anion associated with the amino group on the packing material.

    N=5.54(Ve/W where: Ve : Elution time : Width of peak at half-height : Peak height : Number of theoretical plates/column (2) Asymmetry factor (As) The asymmetry factor is calculated according to Figure 4 and the following equation: 1/10h Injection Figure 4 Calculation of Asymmetry Factor As=b/a (3) The N and As should be measured with an instrument with small dead volume.
  • Page 12 11-1 Effect of Guard Column Installation (1) Contamination of the analytical column can be prevented by the removal of adsorptive or insoluble materials in the sample. (2) Pressure shock, due to pump pulsation, to the analytical column should be avoided. 11-2 Type and Selection of Guard Columns Guard columns specifications are shown in Table 2.

    If a mixture of water or aqueous acetate solution with water-soluble organic solvents (e.g., acetonitrile) are used as a mobile phase, the guard column should be replaced after approximately 70 h of usage (for 4.6 mm(I.D.) columns) or 40 h of usage (for 2.0 mm(I.D.) columns).
