CZE determination of submicromolar level of phenol in seawater using improved dynamic pH junction.

Using an improved dynamic pH junction as an on-line concentration procedure, we developed CZE for determining submicromolar phenol in seawater for chloride to phenol concentration ratios of 1 000 000. To enhance the effect of conventional dynamic pH junction, a saturated fatty acid solution was injected into the capillary after sample injection. We named the procedure an improved dynamic pH junction.
