title: Element selective detection for supercritical-fluid chromatography.
abstract: This manuscript describes the use of Supercritical-Fluid Chromatography (SFC) with plasma spectrometric detection for the analysis of organometallics. An introduction on the principles and characteristics of Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES) and Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) is included, along with a discussion about requirements for coupling SFC to plasma detection and the different approaches for interfacing SFC to ICP. The last part of this review paper provides a comprehensive description of SFC-ICP applications for the analysis of organometallics containing iron, silicon, tin, chromium, arsenic, lead, mercury and antimony.
