Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Reprocessing nuclear-spent fuels is highly demanded for enhanced resource efficacy and removal of the associated radiotoxicity. The present work elucidates the rapid separation of UO and Th ions using a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) technique by dynamically modifying the surface of a C silica monolith column with target-specific ionophoric ligands. For the dynamic modification, four analogous aromatic amide ligands, N,N,N,N,N,N-hexa(alkyl)benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide (alkyl = butyl, hexyl, octyl, and decyl) as column modifiers were synthesized. The complexation properties and retention profiles of the amide-based column modifiers for the selective and sequential separation of UO and Th ions were investigated. In addition, the selective separation of UO and Th ions among the competitive ions of similar chemical properties were also studied. The ionophore immobilized C silica monolith columns demonstrated a varying degree of retention behavior for UO and Th ions (UO is retained longer than Th under all analytical conditions), eventually leading to rapid separations within a period of =5 min. A 0.1 M solution of 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid (HIBA, 1 mL min) served as the mobile phase, and the qualitative and quantitative assessment of the sequentially separated 5f metal ions was achieved through post-column derivatization reaction, using arsenazo(iii) as a post-column reagent (PCR; 1.5 mL min) prior to analysis using a UV-vis detector, at 665 nm (?). The developed technique was further evaluated by standardizing various analytical parameters, including modifier concentration, mobile phase pH, mobile phase flow rate, etc., to yield the best chromatographic separation. Also, the conceptual role of alkyl chain length (in the modifier) on the retention behavior of the studied metal ions was evaluated for cutting-edge future applications.
