ABSTRACT
Flow injection chromatography (FIC) or sequential injection chromatography (SIC) is a low-pressure liquid chromatography technique that uses flow injection or sequential injection hardware. Due to the constraints of this hardware, the separation resolution is low; often no more than 3-5 components are resolved. We have recently demonstrated the excellent resolving power of narrow open tubular (OT) columns for various biomolecules, and only moderate elution pressures are needed to carry out these separations. In this paper, we incorporate a narrow OT column with FIC and construct an FIC system using a pressure chamber and two injection valves to implement gradient elution. The resultant system not only improves the resolution but also reduces the system cost. When we use the system to separate peptides from trypsin-digested cytochrome C, we can resolve dozens of peptides (with resolutions of 0.5 or greater) at a speed of 12 samples per hour. When we use this system to separate a mixture containing 3 amino acids, we can base-line resolve these compounds at a speed of 1800 sample per hour.
