Abstract
The use of micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MECC) for the separation of eleven substituted phenols listed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as priority pollutants was demonstrated. The effects of the pH and ionic strength of the buffer, and the length of the separation column on resolution were investigated. The retention characteristics of the eleven phenols in MECC are discussed.
