A Study on the Analysis of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons by RPLC/DAD (I)

RPLC/DAD를 이용한 Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon류의 분석에 관한 연구(I)

The retention behaviors of 16 PAHs and 4 nitro-PAHs were studied with several parameters involved numbers of carbon atoms, F factor, aqueous solubility, L/B ratio, and numbers of interfering hydrogen atom pairs on the chemical structures of PAHs by using reversed-phase liquid chromatography/diode array detection method (RPLC/DAD) and gradient elution method. It was obtain that the log k' for most of PAHs with increasing the number of carbon and the F factor in their molecules. Chromatographic retention of PAH isomers and nitro-PAHs were examined with aqueous solubility, L/B ratio and number of interfering hydrogen atom pairs. As a result of comparison with these factors and retention times, it was found that those solutes having larger aqueous solubilities and greater L/B ratios were retained longer on stationary phase. This tendency was also occured in the molecules having the more number of interfering hydrogen atom pairs. Detection limits of PAHs which were obtained with three times measurements by RPLC/DAD were in the range of 100~500ng/mL and method detection limit(MDL) for water sample were in the range of 0.1~0.5ng/mL.

Benzo(a)pyrene을 비롯한 16종의 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon(PAHs)과 4종의 nitro-PAHs를 reversed-phase liquid chromatography/diode array detection (RPLC/DAD)를 이용하여 기울기용리법으로 분리하고, PAH류의 머무름거동에 영향을 미치는 인자들, 즉 탄소수, F인자, L/B ratio, 물에 대한 용해도 및 방해수소원자쌍의 수와 시료의 머무름과의 상관관계를 고찰하였다. 대부분의 PAH류는 탄소원자수와 F값이 커질수록 logk'이 증가하는 사실을 확인하였다. 그리고 몇 가지 이성체들과 nitro-PAH류들은 용해도가 크고, L/B값이 작으며, 방해수소원자쌍의 수가 많을수록 먼저 용리됨을 확인하였다. 각 PAH류의 검출한계는 100~500ng/mL 범위로 나타났으며, 실제 물시료에 대한 검출한계(method detection limit, MDL)는 0.1~0.5ng/mL 범위였다.
