This characteristic parameter can be used to flexibly reproduce the original PTRI data under chromatographic conditions different from those originally given. As this characteristic parameter is not explicitly given, it is suggested to name this parameter as the implicit characteristic parameter (TCP) of a PTRI database. The ICP in White’s PTRI database was easily found and used satisfactorily to reproduce PTRI of some test compounds using either a Hewlett-Packard ultra-performance OV-1 column or a self-coated OV-1 column. The reproduction of PTRI could not be realized on columns of different materials. The fact that several PTRI databases measured on glass capillary columns could not satisfactorily be reproduced on fused silica column is explained. 收起
