Retention temperature

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-013499",
  "term": "Retention temperature",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The temperature at which a specific analyte elutes from a chromatographic column in temperature-programmed chromatography. This parameter is analogous to retention time in isothermal chromatography, but it accounts for the changing column temperature during the separation. It is a characteristic property for a given analyte under specific temperature programming conditions.",
