Nonionic polysaccharides as calibration standards for aqueous size exclusion chromatography
1994
Dubin, P.L.
Size exclusion chromatography may be used to determine molecular size or mass of solutes. The validity of the method depends on the correct choice of macromolecular standards used to calibrate the chromatographic column. This calibration is an experimental determination of the relationship between the molecular dimensions and the peak migration velocity of the solute, in practice often presented as a semi-logarithmic plot of log(MW) vs elution volume, but more fundamentally expressed as the dependence of for example, the Stokes radius (Rs), or the viscosity radius (Rn) on the chromatographic partition coefficient, KSEC. The validity of this calibration rests on the absence of enthalpic interactions between the standards and the stationary phase and the ability to determine the standards' molecular dimensions and/or mass in a nonambiguous way. Nonionic polysaccharides are ideal for this purpose, and furthermore provide an excellent paradigm for studying the role of molecular architecture in the relationship between KSEC and Rn or Rs.
