Contour maps of the signal intensity of steroids calculated using raw data obtained on silica gel (left) and octadecylsilane (right) stationary phases. Time (X axis) and
temperature (Y axis) ranged from 0 to 40 min and from 40 to 120°C, respectively. The components of interests are (from the top): cholesterol, lithocholic acid, cholic acid
and taurodeoxycholic acid.
