Evaluation of the use of microemulsions as eluents in high-performance liquid chromatographyAn overview of the use of microemulsions as eluents in HPLC is given. The separation mechanisms involved are discussed and the technique is compared to solvent modified micellar chromatography as well as to ordinary reversed-phase HPLC in order to evaluate differences and similarities. The microemulsion systems have been used for the separation of a number of antihypertensives and non steroidal antiinflammatory drug substances as well as for the analysis of bumetanide and acebutolol in plasma and urine. The plasma samples may be injected directly onto the HPLC system after a simple dilution.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
