successive steps of the missing peak chromatography applied to the screening of nicotinic ligands in the tobacco smoke condensate.
Process step | Operation |
---|---|
1 | Extraction and fractionation to yield Fraction 1 |
2 | (S)-nicotine depletion to yield Fraction 1A |
3 | Chromatographic fingerprint of Fraction 1A |
4 | Chromatography of Fraction 1A on nAChR(+)-CMAC and nAChR(−)-CMAC |
5 | Determination of chromatographic fingerprints of collected fractions |
6 | Comparison of chromatographic fingerprints |
