Abstract

An on-line, post-column, extraction system suitable for use with miniaturized HPLC (0.7–1 mm i.d. columns) is described. The system consists of a 30° angle segmenting tee, a PTFE extraction coil of variable length and a membrane phase separator. The internal volume of the phase separator is less than 1 μl. The total variance contribution of the system is between 1 and 6 sec2.

The determination of the anti-cancer drugs VP 16 and VM 26 in urine by means of reversed-phase HPLC and fluorescence detection, using both on-column preconcentration and the present miniaturized post-column extraction system is presented as an application.
