Notes:
The gelpermeation chromatography of sodium ligncsulfonates with bidistilled water as an eluent is influenced by the volume expansion of the polyelectrolyte, by the negative changes of the gels, and by the inclusion effect so markedly that true conclusions on the molecular weight distribution of sodium lignosulfonate cannot be drawn. Using electrolytes as an eluent these irregularities can be avoided. Polydispersity of these macromolecules however prevents separation into discrete peaks. As a result of this behaviour changes of molecular weight distribution are only poorly recognized. Therefore, on studying biotransformation of lignosulfonic acids we purpose to use gels by which one part of the lignosulfonates is excluded, and biotransformation may be controlled by the ratio of excluded part of the lignosulfonates to that part retarded by the gels.
