This study demonstrates that
the retention behavior of various circular double-stranded DNA molecules (3,
5, and 10 kb) increases
over the entire flow-rate range (0.02–1.8 mL/min) at all the mobile phase
viscosities (h). The transition between the two well-known nonequilibrium chromatography
methods (slalom and hydrodynamic chromatography) is clearly visualized for proteins
and does not appear for plasmids because of their strong compact structure. Also,
the optimal conditions for F and h are determined to obtain the most efficient
separation of these three plasmids in a minimum analysis time.
