“…Separation times of 1–15 s have been demonstrated for several sample types including chiral, achiral, and small biomolecules. − These separations have been achieved by using short HPLC columns (0.5–5.5 cm long), high flow rates (1–8 mL/min), and systems modified to have reduced dead volumes. Although peak capacity of these fast isocratic separations has been modest compared to longer analysis times, the use of peak deconvolution methods can increase information content. ,,, Up to 10 components were resolved in 0.9 s using such approaches . One potential application demonstrated by fast separations was the increased throughput of standard pharmacopeial methods. ,, In principle, separation times of 1–15 s have appealing applications in a variety of high-throughput experiments (HTE) such as screening organic reactions, biocatalyst development, chemical “sensing”, process monitoring, and quality testing of chemical libraries, among others.…”
