The separation method using chiral stationary phase in preparation of chiral compound was wildly used, but in this work, supercritical fluid chromatography was suggested in the stability to resolve the chiral mixtures. To determine the optimum operating condition of the racemic ibuprofen, the retention factor and resolution with change in pressures, temperatures and the contents of IPA % (vol.) in CO$_2$ were investigated. The retention factor was decreased with increase in pressure and decrease in temperature. The factor was also influenced by the content of IPA in mobile phase, while the resolution was worse with a increase in IPA %. From the experimental results, the desirable separation condition was 130 bar, 311.15 K and 4% IPA in CO$_2$. Compared to the asymmetric peak shape by liquid chromatography, that of supercritical fluid chromatography was symmetric which was a favorable condition for preparative separation.

Optical resolution of a-amino acid (tryptophan and tyrosine) optical isomers was achieved by a pressure driven membrane separation process, using self-supporting crosslinked membranes base on polysaccharide with different swelling indices that ranged from 100 to 70%. The membranes prepared by casting and drying the polymer solution containing 5wt% acetic acid on an acryl plate followed by crosslinking with glutaraldehyde were characterized using such analytical methods as FTIR and swelling index measurements. On the way of separating the optical isomers, several experimental factors such as the concentration of the feed solutions, operating pressure and temperature, and degree of crosslinking of the membranes have been studied. When the chitosan membranes with 70% of swelling index were used , almost complete optical resolution was obtained; 97.92% of enantiomeric excess (ee %) and 2.26 g/$m^2$ㆍh of flux. The operating pressure and the concentration of feed solutions were respectively 1.0 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 0.49 mmol/L.

Ion-exchange polymeric stationary phases presenting amino acid and amino groups were prepared by the surface grafting of glycidyl methacrylate onto a silica gel surface and subsequent amination. Three kinds of amino acids-L-arginine (Arg), D-lysine (Lys), and D-histine (His)-were used in this study. An ion-exchange polymeric stationary phase presenting ethylene diamine (EDA) was also prepared by surface graft polymerization. Separation of the model proteins bovine serum albumin (BSA), chick egg albumin (CEA), and hemoglobin (Hb) was performed using the amino acid- and amine-derived columns. In separating the CEA/BSA mixture, the resolution time of BSA was longer than that of CEA when using the EDA column, whereas the resolution time of BSA was shorter than that of CEA when using the Arg, Lys, and His columns. In the separation of the Hb/BSA mixture, the resolution time of BSA was longer than that of Hb in the EDA column, whereas the resolution time of BSA was shorter than that of Hb in the amino acid columns (D-Lys, L-Arg, and D-His).

DNA fragments (51-587 bp) were separated by capillary electrophoresis using entangled polymer, hydroxyethylcellulose, in uncoated fused silica capillary columns. The factors affecting the separation of DNA fragments with hydroxyethylcellulose media were evaluated, i.e., the concentration of buffer and entangled polymer, effects of additives (methanol, ethidium bromide, EDTA), temperature, and injection methods. Maximum performance was obtained by adding 5% methanol in 0.5% hydroxyethylcellulose solution at $30^{\circ}C$. Addition of methanol in polymer media increased the resolution of small size DNA fragments (< 100 bp). On the other hand, addition of ethidium bromide and EDTA, which are commonly used in conventional DNA separation, reduced the resolution of DNA fragments in the polymer solution. It turns out that the separation behavior of DNA in entangled polymer is more sensitive to the running condition compared to that in polyacrylamide gel-filled capillary, but the reproducibility of DNA separation in entangled polymer is reliable.

The demand for rare-earth elements (REEs) is increasing owing to their significance as prominent materials in electronics, high-tech industries, geological research, nuclear forensics, and environmental monitoring. In general, the utilization of REEs in various applications requires the use of chromatographic techniques to separate individual elements. However, REEs have similar physicochemical properties, which makes them difficult to separate. Recently, several studies have examined the separation of REEs using LN resin as the stationary phase and aqueous nitric acid and hydrochloric acid solutions as eluents. Using this method, light REEs have been separated using dilute acid solutions as the eluent, whereas heavy REEs are separated using solutions with high acid concentrations. To increase the separation resolution between different REEs, either the column length or resin size is changed. In addition, the suggested methods are implemented to decrease the analysis time. This review presents technical information on the chromatographic separation of REEs using the LN resin and discusses the optimal experimental conditions.

This paper deals with an application of adaptive blind source separation (BSS) method, equivariant adaptive separation via independence (EASI), and Teager Energy Operator (TEO) for online identification of structural modal parameters. The aim of adaptive BSS methods is recovering a set of independent sources from their unknown linear mixtures in each step when a new sample is received. In the proposed approach, firstly, the EASI method is used to decompose structural responses into independent sources at each instance. Secondly, the TEO based demodulation method with discrete energy separation algorithm (DESA-1) is applied to each independent source, and the instantaneous frequencies and damping ratios are extracted. The DESA-1 method can provide the fast time response and has high resolution so it is suitable for online problems. This paper also compares the performance of DESA-1 algorithm with Hilbert transform (HT) method. Compared to HT method, the DESA-1 method requires smaller amounts of samples to estimate and has a smaller computational complexity and faster adaption due to instantaneous characteristic. Furthermore, due to high resolution of the DESA-1 algorithm, it is very sensitive to noise and outliers. The effectiveness of the proposed approach has been validated using synthetic examples and a benchmark structure.

Chiral separation of arylalcohols such as 1-phenyl-1-propanol, 1-phenyl-2-propanol, and 2-phenyl-1-propanol by capillary electrophoresis was studied using sulfonated $\beta$-cyclodextrin (CD) as a chiral selector and Ag colloids as an additive. The optimum separation condition of arylalcohols was found to be the chiral selector concentration of 6.5 mM, applied voltage of 15 kV, and pH of 7.0. In order to improve chiral separation, an Ag colloid was mixed with a running buffer. The resolution in the Ag colloid-mixed running buffer was considerably superior to that obtained with the sulfonated $\beta$-CD alone. The molar ratio of sulfonated $\beta$-CD to Ag colloid, which is one of critical parameters affecting resolution, was found to be optimum at 65 : 1. In order to elucidate the resolution mechanism, an inclusion-complex of the arylalcohols with sulfonated $\beta$-CD was prepared by mixing and shaking in solution, and then characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The inclusion mechanism was also discussed using experimental results.

Quantitative Structure-Resolution Relationship (QSRR) using the Comparative Molecular Field Analysis (CoMFA) software was applied to predict the chromatographic behaviors of chiral drugs with an amine moiety on the chiral cellobiohydrolase (CBH) columns. As a result of the Quantitative CoMFA-Resolution Relationship study, using the partial least square method, prediction of the behavior of drugs with amine moiety upon chiral separation became possible from their three dimensional molecular structures. When a mixed mobile phase of 10 mM aqueous phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) - isopropanol (95 : 5) was employed, the best Quantitative CoMFA-Resolution Relationship, derived from the study, provided a cross-validated $q^2$ = 0.933, a normal $r^2$ = 0.995, while the best Quantitative CoMFA-Separation Factor Relationship, also derived from the study, yielded a cross-validated $q^2$ = 0.939, a normal $r^2$ = 0.991. When all of these results are considered, this QSRR-CoMFA analysis appears to be a very useful tool for the preliminary prediction on the chromatographic behaviors of drugs with an amine moiety inside chiral CBH columns.

The goal for the CD&R system is to predict that a conflict is going to occur in the future, communicate the detected conflict to a human operator, and, in some cases, assist in the resolution of the conflict situation. To provide insight into different methods of conflict detection and resolution, a literature review of previous research models and current developmental and operational systems was performed. This paper focuses only on the specific attributes of each model, not on the depth to which a model has been analyzed, validated, or accepted. Thus, care should be taken to remember that a model that seems to be simple according to our categorization scheme may be significantly more viable than an apparently sophisticated model.
