Evaluation of Gas Chromatographic Columns for the Separation of Fluorinated Materials
to recorded information
A substrate, monophase gel, prepared by plasticizing halogenated polymers with halogenated oils proved superior t o conventional two phase columns for t h e separation of fluorinated materials. A gas chromatograph was designed and built for this study.

Activated Cellulose for Solution-Adsorption Chromatography Cellulose is activated by grinding with polar solvents and carefully removing these liquids. This results in increased adsorption capacity for carotene and related pigments. By careful control of conditions, reproducible sorptive preparations are found. C. K. MILLER, DANIEL STEFFENSON, H. D.

Complete isotopic exchange of stable with added radioactive chloride in a solution formed by hot alkaline digestion is followed b y t h e determination of diluted specific activity in purified solutions obtained b y successive stages of alkaline dry ashing, oxidation-reduction, and distillation. This method provides a standard for evaluating other simpler methods of chloride analysis in biological materials.

Determination of the True Chloride Content of Biological Fluids and Tissues. I I . Analysis by Simple, Nonisotopic Methods For biological fluids, direct dilution and automatic, coulometric-amperometric titration is suitable. For tissues, a solution for titration can be prepared by alkaline digestion of wet or dried tissue, followed by zinc hydroxide yirecipitation of protein, and perborate oxidation of sulfhydryl groups in the supernatant ; dilute nitric acid extraction of fat-free, dried, pulverized tissue ; or water extraction. Isotopic dilution procedure was used as a standard of reference for comparing these methods. ERNEST COTLOVE, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, M d . Anal. Chem. 35, 101 (1963)
