When a difficult separation cannot be accomplished by changing the column and mobile phase conditions, two alternate methods are available. The most common approach is to increase the column length with identical packing material, and the second approach is to recycle the sample through the column. However, the former approach might lead to a limitation to the separation efficiency due to an in...

the aim of this study is investigating the transport mechanism of ibuprofen chiral isomers inside singlewall carbon nano tube (swcnt) using mathematical modeling. to achieve this goal, molecular dynamicssimulation has been performed to evaluate the interactions of ibuprofen isomers with swcnt in an aqueoussolution. results show that both chiral forms of ibuprofen molecules enter and remain insi...

Previous work has shown that, shortly after rabbit corneas are injured, arachidonic acid metabolism is activated, and 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) is one of the main products formed (Bazan, H. E. P., Birkle, D. L., Beuerman, R., and Bazan, N. G. (1985) Invest. Ophthalmol. & Visual Sci. 26, 474-480; Bazan, H. E. P. (1987) Invest. Ophthalmol. Visual Sci. 28, 314-319). In order to det...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are specific structures with valuable characteristics. In general, the structure of each nanotube is defined by a unique chiral vector. In this paper, different structures of short single-walled CNTs are simulated and their mechanical properties are determined using finite element method. For this aim, a simple algorithm is presented which is able to model the geometry o...

The enantioselective tuning of two columns coupled in series is investigated in chiral high-resolution gas chromatography. Two columns with opposite enantioselectivities (Chirasil-L-Val and Chirasil-D-Val) are coupled in series via a T connector, and the relative retention of enantiomers chromatographed on the system is changed by varying the individual carrier gas flow rates in the coupled col...
