Background: The introduction of monolithic rods and core-shell particles as new morphologies of packing materials different from the conventional totally porous particles resulted in a leap forward for performance in LC. Meanwhile, environmental safety has become increasingly important in many areas, especially in industry and research laboratories. Objective: This study compared the efficiencies of commercially available columns of different lengths and diameters when greener chromatographic conditions were utilized. The main purpose of this study is to help practitioners select the most appropriate stationary phase for faster and greener analysis. Methods: The three types of stationary phases were compared in terms of separation efficiency, number of theoretical plates, peak shape, selectivity, resolution, analysis time, mobile phase consideration, and permeability using six drug molecules. Results: Results indicated that core-shell and monolithic stationary phases had superiority over the conventional totally porous particles in terms of efficiency and speed of analysis. Monolithic rods had lower column backpressure and higher permeability, so they are more suitable for higher mobile phase flow rates and viscosities. However, core-shell particles provided enhanced peak shapes and number of theoretical plates. Conclusions: The choice will depend on the main purpose of analysis and the composition of the mobile phase. Compromise must be made to obtain the best trade-off between separation efficiency and analysis speed. Highlights: This study is the first to consider green chromatography concepts for the selection of the best stationary phase of new morphologies.
