Abstract:
In this study the effect of type and concentration of chaotropic counter anion in buffered mobile phase on retention behaviour of some beta-blockers was studied. Two types of anions (perchlorate, dihydrogen phosphate) were examined under different concentrations. Further different pH-values for each anion were used to investigate the effect of pH changes on chaotropic behaviour of these anions. The role of organic modifier (methanol, acetonitrile) type was also considered. All these parameters were studied for three different RP-columns (calixarene modified silica gel, monolithic RP-column and a conventional RP-column). The results indicate that all studied factors affected the chaotropic behaviour of the tested anions. Also the type of the used stationary phase has found to play an important role in retention behaviour of beta-blockers.

Chromatography: Introduction
The phase in which the compounds linger or on which the compounds adsorb is called the stationary phase, whereas the mobile phase is the solvent that carries the solutes to be analyzed. In traditional column chromatography, the mixture flows through the stationary phase, and the compounds partition between the stationary and mobile phases...
