Abstract

This study was carried out to enhance the analytical methods of phenolic compounds in mainstream cigarette smoke using high efficiency column and RRLC(Rapid Resolution Liquid Chromatography) system, and to compare these methods. RRLC system offers significantly faster results with higher data quality of phenolic compounds than conventional HPLC, but it is disadvantage that it is expensive. On the other hand, the method using monolithic column offers faster results by the use of conventional HPLC system without new equipment introduction. In this study, we used the linear type smoking machine and Health Canada method for pre-treatment process of phenolic compounds. The analysis time of phenolic compounds using RRLC and monolithic column was individually 8 and 15 minutes, whereas in the conventional HPLC it was 45 minutes. These new methods were accompanied with the minimal solvent consumption and had lower analysis costs. Also, we proved that there were no difference between new methods and conventional method in accuracy by statistic.
