A generalization of the retention index system including linear temperature programmed gas-liquid partition chromatography.

01 Jan 1963-Journal of Chromatography A (J Chromatogr)-Vol. 11, Iss: 2, pp 463-471
TL;DR: The equation given by Kovats for the calculation of the retention index in case of isothermal operation is transformed to a more general form to include also the case of linear temperature programmed operation and gives the same retention index for both ways of operation.
About: This article is published in Journal of Chromatography A.The article was published on 1963-01-01. It has received 5192 citations till now. The article focuses on the topics: Kovats retention index.

TL;DR: In this article, the antioxidant properties of the essential oil from oregano in relation to its chemical composition were examined and the antioxidant activity was investigated with three different methods: the β-carotene bleaching (BCB) test, the 2,2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging method and the TBARS assay.

TL;DR: The essential oils obtained from the aerial parts of Origanum scabrum and Origaum microphyllum exhibited a very interesting antimicrobial profile after they were tested against six Gram-negative and -positive bacteria and three pathogenic fungi.
Abstract: The essential oils obtained from the aerial parts of Origanum scabrum and Origaum microphyllum, both endemic species in Greece, were analyzed by means of GC and GC-MS. Forty-eight constituents were...

TL;DR: In this article, the antioxidant properties of the essential oil from oregano in relation to its chemical composition were examined and the antioxidant activity was investigated with three different methods: the b-carotene bleaching (BCB) test, the 2,2 0 -diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging method and the TBARS assay.
Abstract: The antioxidant properties of the essential oil from oregano in relation to its chemical composition were examined. The antioxidant activity was investigated with three different methods: the b-carotene bleaching (BCB) test, the 2,2 0 -diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging method and the thiobarbituric acid reactive species (TBARS) assay. It was found that the total essential oil, its fraction as well as its pure constituents have a significant antioxidant effect when tested by each method, respectively. Generally the antioxidant activity of the oregano essential oil is less effective than the ascorbic acid, but comparable with the a-tocopherol and the synthetic antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). The synergy among minor oxygen containing compounds was suggested as possible factor, which influenced the antioxidant power of the oregano essential oil. The antioxidant concentrations influenced its antioxidant power, too. # 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple relation exists between the retention index of a compound on a non-polar stationary phase and its boiling point, which is defined as the ratio of the boiling point of the compound to its retention index.
Abstract: For the characterization of organic substances in gas chromatography a number termed «retention index» is proposed. A simple relation exists between the retention index of a compound on a non-polar stationary phase and its boiling point.
