L-I-T: lower mobile phase pumped into the inner tail terminal; U-O-H: upper mobile phase pumped into the outer head terminal; direction of rotation viewing the spiral disk :CCW, counterclockwise rotation; TP: theoretical plate number; RS: peak resolution; SF(%); % stationary phase retention; 1st peak: myoglobin in L-I-T and lysozyme in U-O-H; 2nd peak: lysozyme in L-I-T and myoglobin in U-O-H.
