alkylbenzene were separated with the liquid system heptane/methanol/water 5/4/1 v/v with the aqueous lower mobile phase and the heptane lighter stationary and extruding phase. Steroids were separated with the heptane/ethyl acetate/methanol/water 5/6/5/6 v/v liquid system with the aqueous lower mobile phase and the organic lighter stationary and extruding phase.
