Ion Chromatography Basics & Applications

Ion chromatography is a technique used to separate and analyze ionic species in mixtures. It works by passing a sample through a column containing ion exchange resin, which separates the ions based on their affinity for the stationary phase. Common applications of ion chromatography include analyzing food samples for inorganic anions or cations to test for contaminants. The instrument consists of a pump to deliver the mobile phase, an autosampler to inject the sample onto the column, and a detector such as a conductivity detector to identify and quantify the separated ionic species.

What is Chromatography?

Chromatography is a technique for separating mixtures into their


components in order to analyze, identify, purify, and/or quantify the
mixture or components.

• Analyze
Separate • Identify
• Purify

Mixture Components
• Quantify

What is Ion Chromatography

1) Ion Chromatography is a liquid chromatographic technique, with


which ionic and strongly polar species can be separated and detected
2) Ions can be either Positive Charge (Cations) or Negative Charge
(Anions)
3) Separation takes place according to their affinity for Ion Exchange
Stationary Phases.

Distinguish between HPLC and IC

HPLC IC

1 The ‘hardware’ of HPLC is made up The ‘hardware’ of IC is made up of PEEK


of SS material.(Poly Ether Ether Ketone)

2 Generally non ionic mobile phase is Ionic mobile phase is required


use.
3 Stationary phase used in HPLC is Polystyrene base ion exchange resin
mostly bonded Silica copolymer with styrene and dvb is generally
used as stationary phase in IC.

4 Only molecule is determined by Charged species as well as some molecule


HPLC can be determined.
5 Absorbance is measured in HPLC Primarily Conductance is measured in IC

6 Can not used as IC. Can be used as RP- HPLC.

Principle of Separation on Ion Chromatography (Anions)
Anions (- ve Charge)
Eluent should give free OH-/ CO3-2/HCO3-1
Strong Bases like NaOH/ KOH and Sodium Carbonate and
Bicarbonate
Anion Column will be having Positive sites on Stationary Phase like
Quaternary Ammonium Groups with Positive Charge.
At the time of System Equilibration Negative ions from the Eluent will
get adsorbed on Positive charge of the column towards Neutrality
Negatively charged analytes will compete with Negative charged
Hydroxide or Carbonate or Bicarbonate Eluent Ions for Positive sites
on the column.
The anions will get attached and again get displaced from positive
sites of stationary phase according to their Charge and Size.
Elution Order: F < Cl < Br < SO4< PO3

Cations (+ ve Charge)

Eluent should give free H+


Strong Acids like Methane Sulfonic acid or Sulfuric Acid
Cation Column will be having Negative sites on Stationary Phase like
Sulfonates and Carbonates Groups with Negative Charge.
At the time of System Equilibration Positive ions from the Eluent (H+)
will get adsorbed on Negative charge of the column towards
Neutrality.
Positively charged analytes (NaCl, KCl) will compete with Positive
charged Hydrogen Ions for Negative sites on the column.
The Cations will get attached and again get displaced from Negative
sites of stationary phase according to their Charge and Size.

Instrumentation: Pump, Autosampler

I) Eluent Reservoir – It is nothing but mobile phase container. This can


be made up of good quality of glass or polypropylene depending upon
the nature of mobile phase.

II) Pump – For optimal system performance it is essential that the pump
provide smooth, accurate, and precise eluent delivery .The pump
material as well as fluid path in the system is made up of Peek (Poly
ether ether ketone) material. This peek material is compatible with 0 to
14 PH and with most of organic solvents.

III)Sample Injector – This can be manual or auto to load the fixed amount
of standard as well as sample in to the column.

Instrumentation: Guard and Separator Column
• I) Guard Column – generally guard column is made up of same material as analytical
column. Guard column prevents direct shock to main analytical column. AG –Anion Guard.

• II) Analytical Column – The column is the heart of ion chromatography. Physically, it
consists of a chemically inert tube packed with a polymeric resin. IC columns are available
in different sizes and packed with different resins depending upon the application and
desired mode of separation. AS – Anion Separator

Advantages of Suppressor

1. It reduces the background signal of Conductivity Detector. Increases the sensitivity of analysis.

2. It converts analyte in to highly conducting dilute acid and base and hence increases the response of
the analyte and hence the sensitivity.

3. It removes all the counter ions from Eluent as well as standard salts and hence the analysis become
more selective.

16

3) Detection mode :- Conductivity Detector

• The conductivity of a solution is measured by applying an alternating voltage between two electrodes in a conductivity cell.

• At any instant in time, negatively charged anions migrate towards positive electrode and positively charged cations migrate
towards negative electrode

17

4) Data Mode :- Chromeleon Software

• Signal generated by detector is transmitted to Recorder or directly displayed as a chromatogram on


computer. The concentration of ionic analytes are automatically determined and tabulated.

Ion-Exchange Chromatography Offers Simple, Direct, and Interference-Free Analyses

• Sensitive Detection
Samples can be diluted to decrease the concentration of matrix components

• Specific Detection
Low abundant analytes can be detected in presence of large concentration of
matrix components

• Analyte-Specific Separations
The selectivity of the separator columns is tailored for the specific requirements
of the various analyte classes

22
Advantages of Ion Chromatography / 1

Speed

- Specific detection (suppression, UV, fluorescence, MS, ICP)

23
Advantages of Ion Chromatography / 2

Simultaneity
- Simultaneous analysis of many sample components (In contrast to AAS, photometry, titration, etc.)

Costs
- Cost effective as Mobile phase like coustic or Acids in diluted form is required for analysis.

Robustness
- pH and solvent compatible separators allow a variety of applications
- Analysis of complex matrices such as wastewater, foods, body fluids, etc.

Principle of Separation on Ion Chromatography (Carbohydrates)
Carbohydrates (with neutral charge)
Eluent comprises of High Strength Hydroxide Phase with sodium acetate for highly retaining
analytes
The carboPac series of columns with Pellicular Anion exchange resin bed.

Carbohydrates molecules get ionized at High pH of Eluent forms Oxy-Anions.

These Oxy-Anions retains on Anion exchange columns according to their pKa value.

Higher the pKa value, Lesser the retention

Sodium acetate accelerates the elution of strongly bound species without compromising selectivity
and without interfering with pulsed ampereometric detection.

Principle of Detection on Ion Chromatography (Carbohydrates)
Carbohydrates
Single Potential (DC) or Waveform (series of potential) runs continuously on Working
electrode.
After eluting out from column, the analyte comes in contact with Working electrode and get
either oxidized or reduced at the detection potential.

After give and take electrons the current will be generated (recorded as peak), and it will
be directly proportional to Analyte concentration.
Constant potential is always maintained between Working and Auxiliary electrode; while
Reference electrode whose potential is already known measures and controls the
constant potential among them.

In three electrode system, when working electrode works as cathode (Oxidative potential)
similar magnitude reductive potential will be generated at other half cell i.e. Auxiliary
electrode.

33

Principle of Separation on Ion Chromatography (Transition metals)

Metals (with net Positive charge)


Eluent Contains Chelating agents like carboxylic acid (Pyridine Dicarboxylic acid-PDCA) or
Organic acid (Oxalic acid) acid with pH modifiers
The column CS 5 A will be having both Anion as well as cation exchangers
The metal ions will form Complexes with Chelating agents and these complexes will bear
particular charge (either positive or Negative)
With Carboxylic acid Eluent the charges will be negative; while with Oxalic acid eluent the
charges will be both positive and Negative.
Metal complexes has different charges and Stability Constants (Log k) on which elution order
depends.
This eluate comes in contact with PAR indicator in PCR; where these metal complexes again
reacts with PAR indicator to form chromophore groups which further get detected on visible
wavelength (530 nm)
