Consideration of Inner and Outer Phase Configuration in Tube Radial Distribution Phenomenon Based on Viscous Dissipation in a Microfluidic Flow Using Various Types of Mixed Solvent Solutions.

When mixed solvent solutions, such as ternary water-hydrophilic/hydrophobic organic solvents, water-surfactant, and water-ionic liquid, are delivered into a microspace under laminar flow conditions, the solvent molecules radially distribute in the microspace, generating inner and outer phases. This specific fluidic behavior is termed "tube radial distribution phenomenon", and has been used in separation technologies such as chromatography and extraction. The factors influencing the configuration of the inner and outer phases in "tube radial distribution phenomenon" using the above-mentioned mixed solvent solutions were considered from the viewpoint of viscous dissipation in fluidic flows.

Separation of Metal Complexes with Counter Ions by Tube Radial Distribution Chromatography Using a Ternary Solvent Containing 8-quinolinol.

An open-tubular capillary chromatography system (tube radial distribution chromatography, TRDC) was developed using a ternary solvent (water-acetonitrile-ethyl acetate; volume ratio, 3:8:4) containing 10 mmol L(-1) 8-quinolinol for the separation of nitrate, chloride, and sulfate compounds of Ni(II), Al(III), and Fe(III). When a mixed solution of the Ni(II) compounds was injected into an untreated fused-silica capillary tube (90 cm × 75 μm i.d.

Investigation of inner and outer phase formation in tube radial distribution phenomenon using various types of mixed solvent solutions.

When mixed solvent solutions, such as ternary water-hydrophilic/hydrophobic organic solvents, water-surfactant, water-ionic liquid, and fluorous-organic solvents are delivered into a microspace under laminar flow conditions, the solvent molecules are radially distributed in the microspace, generating inner and outer phases. This specific fluidic behavior is termed "tube radial distribution phenomenon" (TRDP). In this study, the factors influencing the formation of inner and outer phases in the TRDP using the above-mentioned mixed solvent solutions were investigated.

Investigations into tie lines and solubility curves on phase diagrams in open-tubular capillary chromatography using ternary mixed-carrier solvents.

Open-tubular capillary chromatography using a ternary solvent mixture consisting of a water-hydrophilic-hydrophobic organic solvent as a carrier solution has been developed. When the ternary carrier solution is fed into the capillary tube, the carrier solvents are radially distributed and generate inner and outer phases in the tube. The outer phase functions as a pseudo-stationary phase in chromatography.

Elution behavior of lambda-DNA with ternary mixed carrier solvents in an open-tubular capillary under laminar flow conditions.

An open-tubular capillary chromatography was developed based on the tube radial distribution of the ternary mixed carrier solvents that generated the inner and outer phases under laminar flow conditions. This is called "tube radial distribution chromatography" (TRDC). In this report, the elution behavior of lambda-DNA (48502 bp) as a biopolymer was examined by the TRDC system.

Use of tube radial distribution of ternary mixed carrier solvents for introduction of absorption reagent for metal ion separation and online detection into capillary.

When ternary mixed solvents consisting of water-hydrophilic/hydrophobic organic solvents are fed into a micro-space under laminar flow conditions, the solvent molecules are radially distributed in the micro-space. The specific fluidic behavior of the solvents is called the "tube radial distribution phenomenon (TRDP)". A novel capillary chromatography method was developed based on the TRDP that creates the inner major and outer minor phases in a tube, where the outer phase acts as a pseudo-stationary phase.
