This paper describes an equilibrium cell model for intermittent counter-current extraction that is analytically solved for the first time for continuous sample injection between a pair of columns. The model is compared with practice for injections of a model mixture of compounds on a standard high-performance counter-current chromatography instrument giving good agreement for compound elution order and the times to maximum concentration for the eluted components. An improved design of end fittings for the counter-current chromatography bobbins is described which permits on-column switching of the mobile and stationary phases. This on-column switching successfully eliminates the displaced stationary phase seen in fractions when operating ICcE with standard flying leads and gives a 6% reduction in the retention time of compounds and improved resolution due to the elimination of the time delay required to pump the previous mobile phase from standard flying leads.

To improve the efficiency of countercurrent chromatography (CCC) separations, we have previously proposed a new sample loading method called intermittent sample loading (ISL), in which continuous sample feed alternates with short periods of "clean" mobile phase feed to the CCC device. In semi-continuous separation processes, during sample feed periods, the sample is loaded in separate batches, each consisting of a series of intermittent sample loads. It was shown that the application of the intermittent sample loading method in the conventional isocratic CCC separations significantly increased process productivity and the concentration of compounds in the separated fractions.

An infusion of dialysate into the blood compartment across the membrane using back filtration in dialysis therapy provides a stabilizing blood pressure and a membrane flushing during treatment. We devised a method to flush the membrane effectively and tried to find the optimum infusion patterns for intermittent infusion hemodiafiltration (I-HDF) from the aspect of solute removal by computing the pressure distribution in a diafilter. Bovine blood experiments were performed under following three modes: control HD in which no intentional filtration was involved, and two I-HDF in which back filtration was made either under counter current or under parallel flow.

A new modification of the conventional multiple sample loading (MSL) mode - sequential sample loading (SSL) - is suggested to enhance further the performance of the counter-current chromatography (CCC) separation processes. The sequential sample loading technique is simple and easy to implement: the continuous sample solution supply to a CCC column is alternated (interrupted) with short periods of the "pure" mobile phase supply. Periodic (batch) and continuous SSL CCC separations can be designed and implemented.

An impurity in the color additives D&C Red No. 30 (R30) and D&C Red No. 30 lakes (R30L) was newly identified and characterized as 7-chloro-5-methyl-2H-1,4-benzothiazin-3(4H)-one (BTZ), and its extent and level in certified batches of these color additives was determined.

In our recent study, the design and performance of type-I counter-current chromatography (CCC) were changed and improved by multilayer coil. In the present study, the performance of protein separation using the multilayer coil configuration in type-I CCC was investigated under various flow rates. In order to overcome the noise signal interrupting the target peaks, a hollow fiber membrane dialyzer was inserted between CCC column outlet and inlet of the monitor.
