 *: RT1-RT3 injected before, RT4 – RT6 injected after test item.

Dead time is 1.582 ± 0.001 minutes, with RSD (relative standar deviation) 0.062 %.

The RSD of the retention times of the reference items lay all below 0.5 %.

Equation of the regression:

log k = 0,4558 * log Pow – 0.8037 with a coefficient of determination r² = 0.9486
