Connection between chromatographic data and biological data.
There are no previous references to the direct use of GLC data in the correlation of biological processes, but we show that GLC retention data can be used in the correlation of several such processes involving gaseous solutes. There are a number of reports of RP-HPLC and MEKC data being used in the correlation of biological processes, but they are mostly restricted as to the number and type of solute studied. We show that if chromatographic data are used to obtain solvation descriptors for solutes, and if these descriptors are then used in the correlation of biological processes, that this indirect connection is a much more powerful and generally applicable method than is the direct connection between chromatographic data and biological data.
