The Separation of Some Pesticides Using the Belt Interface
It is seen that there is little loss of resolution in the interface, and very little cross-contamination occurs
between the peaks, resulting from incomplete removal of each solute from the belt, prior to the next
coating. The sensitivity of the system to carbaryl was claimed to be about 1 ng per spectrum, but the
actual sensitivity in g/ml was not possible to calculate from the data available.
Other Transport Systems
In 1982 Alcock et al. [8] reviewed the various types of transport interfaces that were available at that
time, with particular reference to their use with small-bore columns.
Games et al. [91 examined the peak dispersion that could take place in the transport interface itself,
together with the electronics associated with the
