Two detection systems for gas-liquid chromatography were compared for the identification of metabolic end products (short-chain organic acids) from anaerobic bacteria. Argon and flame ionization detectors were connected in series with inert argon as the carrier gas for analysis of 35 stock strains and 148 clinical isolates. There was an excellent correlation between the argon and flame ionizati...

The ionization response of hydrocarbons In a hydrogen-atmosphere flame was compared to that of a normal flame ionization detector used in gas chromatography. Absolute response in the hydrogen-atmosphere flame lonizatlon detector (HAFID) was found to be two orders of magnitude less than that of the normal FID. This reduced response is attributed both to oxidation of hydrocarbons in the precombus...

background: urinary organic acids are water-soluble intermediates and end products of the metabolism of amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids, and a number of other metabolic processes. in the hereditary diseases known as organic acidurias, an enzyme or co-factor defect in a metabolic pathway leads to the accumulation and increased excretion of one or more of these acidic metabolites. gas chromato...

Several margarine base stock candidates have previously been prepared for the purpose of finding better, more oxidatively stable food components: high-saturate vegetable oils, randomized vegetable oils, vegetable oil-hard stock blends, and interesterified vegetable oil-hard stock blends. Here are reported the triacylglycerol compositions of these products, determined using reverse-phase high-pe...

A commercial flame ionization detector was converted to a gas chromatographic detector selective for silicon-containing compounds by simply interchanging the oxygen and hydrogen inlets so that the flame burned in a hydrogen atmosphere. The optimal configuration of various detector geometries was found to be a narrow cylindrical tube with the collector electrode positioned more than 10 cm from t...

In this study, Iran crude oil samples (K, L) were separated on the basis of solubility and polarity, resulting in saturates, aromatics, resins, and asphaltenes fractions. The fractions were analyzed by traditional open column chromatography, thin layer chromatography-Flame ionization detector in an Itroscan instrument (TLC-FID) and Gas chromatography with flame ionization detection for the dete...

Prepared standards of halothane in oxygen were analysed using a Pye Series 104 gas chromatograph equipped with a heated head flame ionization detector and gas sampling valve. The adoption of a positive jet voltage expanded the linear dynamic range of the detector to cover the 0.5-9.0% by volume range, provided that a small (0.5-ml) sample loop was used.
