Sažetak
When facing separation problems in ion chromatography, chromatographers often lack guidelines to decide a priori if isocratic elution will give enough separation in a reasonable analysis time or a gradient elution will be required. This situation may be solved by the prediction of retention in gradient elution mode by using isocratic experimental data. This work describes the development of an ion chromatographic gradient elution retention model for fluoride, chloride, nitrite, bromide, nitrate, sulfate and phosphate by using isocratic experimental data. The isocratic elution retention model was developed by applying a polynomial relation between the logarithm of the retention factor and logarithm of the concentration of competing ions ; the gradient elution retention model was based on the stepwise numerical integration of the corresponding differential equation. It was shown that the developed gradient elution retention model was not significantly affected by transferring data form isocratic experiment. The root mean squared prediction error for gradient elution retention model was between 0.0863 for fluoride and 0.7027 for bromide proving a very good predictive ability of developed gradient elution retention model.
