title: Evaluation of different tubing geometries for high-speed counter-current chromatography.
abstract: Different tubing geometries were evaluated for use in high-speed counter-current chromatography. Standard round tubing was compared to rectangular and twisted rectangular tubing. The number of theoretical plates for a standard anthocyanin mixture from black currant was determined for each experiment. The results of twisted rectangular tubing were superior to a standard setup.
