Separation of inorganic anion from biomaterial using methacrylate-based column in ion chromatography capillary system

Hidayat, Rahmiana Zein*, Ediso

Abstract

Ion chromatography has widely used to determination of inorganic anions species present in various samples. Polymer methacrylate based monolith column initiated by polymerization of poly (GMA-co-EDMA) has been used for the separation of inorganic anions: IO3¯, BrO3¯, NO2¯, Br¯, NO3¯. The column was made in the presence of selected porogens and characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The resulting monolithic column has good performed for the separation of inorganic anions in biomaterial samples (Arenga pinnata, Lima beans, Malay apple, and Sapodilla)
