- Preparation of sample solution
Test item (0.1071 g) was diluted to 100 mL with MeCN to give a concentration of 1.07 g/L.
Preparation of dead time solution
The dead time was determined by measuring the retention time of formamide (purity 99.94%, value quoted by supplier, 752 mg/L solution in MeCN:water 55:45 v/v).
Preparation of reference standard solutions
Solutions of reference standards were prepared in methanol.

The sample, dead time and reference standard solutions were injected in duplicate using the following HPLC parameters:
- HPLC System: Agilent Technologies 1200 Series
- Detector type: Ultraviolet (UV)
- Column: Luna CN (150 x 4.6 mm id)
- Column temperature: 30ºC
- Mobile phase: MeCN:water (55:45 v/v)
- pH of mobile phase: 6.35
- Flow-rate: 1.0 mL/min

Discussion
As the test item had a high affinity for the stationary phase of the column, the mobile phase was prepared using acetonitrile instead of methanol.
Several peaks were observed with early retention times however these have not been reported as they comprised less than 5% (by area) of the test item.
As the slope of the calibration curve for the reference standards showed good first order correlation and as the retention times between duplicate injections for each solution was consistent, the HPLC method was considered valid for the determination of adsorption coefficient. Based on the chromatographic data, the test item was considered to be stable during the test procedure.
