Multilayer coil planet centrifuge for analytical high-speed counter-current chromatography.
A compact portable model of a high-speed counter-current chromatograph enables efficient analytical separations of microgram sample quantities within 10 min. A series of preliminary experiments was conducted to study retention of the stationary phase of various two-phase solvent systems in short coils with different helical diameters. Under the optimal experimental conditions, analytical capability of the apparatus was successfully demonstrated in separation of flavonoids from a crude sea buckthorn ethanol extract in a multilayer coil with a total capacity of 8 ml.
