Ethylene glycol adipate (EGA) GC stationary phase was used for the separation of diastereoisomeric esters and amides in order to determine steric purity of asymmetric compounds.
Diethylene glycol succinate was used as a stationary phase for the separation of glyceryl ethers from the liver oils of the grey dogfish, the Greenland shark, and the ratfish.
In gas chromatography (GC) solutes are sorbed and desorbed only in the stationary phase. There is a large variety of stationary phases and the choice of it depends on its ability to interact with the sample.
