In this case the methanol increment wasfound to vary with insulin concentration in the mobile phase. When that concentration was between0.025 mg/mL and 0.30 mg/mL, the methanol increment could be determined in the range from 0.03% to0.19% with a deviation of ±10%. A nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer (NMR) was also employedto confirm the obtained result. A methodology with a very rigorous experimental procedure forobtaining results of such accuracy is also included. The presented result may be used to prove thata displacement process definitely occurs as insulin is adsorbed by the RPLC stationary phase inFA.展开更多
