Study of influence of additives of tyloxapol on the chromatographic characteristics of the model compounds: the comparative characterization of micellar mobile phases of tyloxapol and Triton X-100.

The chromatographic behavior of model compounds of biomedical significance (organic acids, amino acids, drugs) was investigated using mobile phases modified with tyloxapol. The influence of factors such as concentration of tyloxapol, content of organic modifier and pH of mobile phase on the retention factor of solutes was studied. The results were compared with the data obtained by elution with mobile phases containing Triton X-100 additives, since units of Triton X-100 are repeated in the structure of tyloxapol. Divergence in chromatographic behavior of model compounds was explained by the difference in physico-chemical characteristics (microviscosity, polarity, critical micelle concentration, shape of micelles, etc.) of tyloxapol and Triton X-100 micelles.
