6. The free energy change of a chromatographic process can be described by, where ΔG 0, ΔH 0,
and ΔS 0 are the standard free energy, enthalpy, and entropy differences, respectively; R is the
gas constant: T is absolute temperature, and k is the partition coefficient. For most
chromatographic modes of separation, the enthalpy of adsorption is the dominant contributor
to the overall change in free energy. SEC is unique in that partitioning is driven entirely by
entropic processes as there ideally is no adsorption, ΔH = 0. Thus the previous equation
becomes: where K D is the thermodynamic retention factor in SEC. Thus, in SEC separations,
temperature should have no impact on retention. In practice, temperature can indirectly impact
retention to a small degree by altering the conformation of the proteins, as well as by affecting
mobile phase viscosity and analyte diffusivity.

7. The thermodynamic SEC retention factor is the fraction of intraparticle pore
volume that is accessible to the analyte: where V R , V 0, and V i are the respective
retention volumes of the analyte of interest, the interstitial volume, and the intra-particle
volume. K D will range from a value of 0 where the analyte is fully excluded
from the pores of the stationary phase, to a value of 1 where the analyte fully
accesses the intraparticle pores.

17. The drug aprotinin (Trasylol, previously Bayer and now Nordic Group
pharmaceuticals), is the small protein bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor,
or BPTI, which inhibits trypsin and related proteolytic enzymes. Under the
trade name Trasylol, aprotinin was used as a medication administered
by injection to reduce bleeding during complex surgery, such as heart and liver
surgery. Its main effect is the slowing down of fibrinolysis, the process that
leads to the breakdown of blood clots. The aim in its use was to decrease the
need for blood transfusions during surgery, as well as end-organ damage due
to hypotension (low blood pressure) as a result of marked blood loss. The drug
was temporarily withdrawn worldwide in 2007 after studies suggested that its
use increased the risk of complications or death
