Definition

role held by a solid, gel, or liquid that is planned to be or used in a chromatography process as the immobilized material which selectively and reversibly retains solutes in the mobile phase

Explanatory Notes

1) Common terms such as β€œchromatographic bed” or β€œsorbent” may refer to its various physical forms. To avoid ambiguity, expressions like β€œliquid stationary phase” or β€œsolid stationary phase” are preferred when specifying its physical state 2) The stationary phase selectively and reversibly retains solutes, enabling their separation during chromatography through differential interactions with both the stationary and mobile phases. This includes mechanisms such as size exclusion, ion exchange, and affinity binding.

Examples

  • the stationary phase role borne by Protein A resin during affinity chromatography; the stationary phase role borne by C18-bonded silica during reversed-phase chromatography; the stationary phase role borne by agarose gel during size-exclusion chromatography

Primitive Class

This class is declared primitive and it does not have necessary and sufficient condiftions defined.

Primitive Rationale

There are insufficient constructs to create necessary and sufficient conditions. In particular modeling of solid, gel or liquid is required.
