  • Patent number: 12000809
    Abstract: A gas chromatographic (GC) column using a zwitterionic compound and methods of use thereof are disclosed herein. The volatile free acids were observed to strongly retain on these zwitterionic compounds-based columns with excellent peak symmetry. By carefully tuning the structures of these zwitterionic compounds, different selectivity toward volatile free acids was demonstrated. These stationary phases possess a wide working range with thermal stabilities at higher temperatures.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 9, 2022
    Date of Patent: June 4, 2024
    Assignee: Iowa State University Research Foundation, Inc.
    Inventors: Jared L. Anderson, Kosuke Kuroda, He Nan
