The protocol involves the use of a microchip flow-injection analysis for fast screening and early detection of phenols and switching to the separation (fingerprint) mode once such compounds are detected. This is readily accomplished by exchanging the run buffers in the separation channel. While operating with an acidic run buffer (pH 5) offers high speed flow-injection measurements of the 'total' phenolic content, on chip switching to a basic buffer (pH 8) leads to ionization of the phenolic compounds and to their effective separation and detection. Under optimum conditions, assay rates of about 120 and 18samples/h can be realized for the 'total' and 'individual' measurements, respectively. The effect of the buffer pH, switching (washing) time, applied voltages and other relevant variables, is described. The concept is illustrated in connection to amperometric detection and is attractive for a wide range of environmental-monitoring applications. |
