Description
Summary:The chromatographic conditions presented allowed the separation of the nitrophenacyl derivatives of standards of eleven free fatty acids (FFA) using a portable high-performance chromatograph, suitable for use aborad a research vessel. A statistically significant linear correlation between UV absorbance and amount of the analytes injected was obtained. The method was tested on FFA from algae cultural media. The method can be used for the ecological monitoring of natural waters.
