title: [Computer-aided prediction of optimal composition of multicomponent mobile phase in high performance liquid chromatography].
abstract: This paper proposed a systematic optimizing method for the composition of multicomponent mobile phase in high performance liquid chromatography. A new chromatographic response function (CRF) has been constructed according to the fundamental retention equation and rule of peak width at half-height, and the optimal composition of multicomponent mobile phase can be automatically predicted by a computer with CRF. This paper improved the known complex method, therefore, the optimal mobile phase composition in the global area may be found by means of this modified complex method. The optimal separation conditions of four vitamins and three nitrophenols were determined by use of the optimizing method reported in this paper. The results predicted by the computer were verified by the experimental data obtained in HPLC using ternary mobile phase.
