Abstract
Three types of novel coiled column configurations, i.e. a triangular coiled column and elliptical coiled columns I and II, were designed for type‐I countercurrent chromatography and their performances were evaluated with two solvent systems each with suitable test samples. Three dinitrophenyl (DNP) amino acids (DNP‐DL‐glu, DNP‐β‐ala and DNP‐L‐ala) were separated with a moderately hydrophobic two‐phase solvent system composed of hexane–ethyl acetate–metanol–0.1 M hydrochloric acid (1:1:1:1, v/v), while two dipeptides (tryptophyl‐tyrosine and valyl‐tyrosine) were separated with a polar solvent system composed of 1‐butanol–acetic acid–water (4.75:0.25:5, v/v). The overall results indicated that the performance of compact type‐I countercurrent chromatography was improved by elliptical coiled column I which was mounted with its maximum coil diameter perpendicular to the surface of the column holder. Hydrodynamic effects involved in these separations were discussed.
