Section Information
Chromatographic techniques are by far one of the most powerful and versatile techniques available to analytical chemists. Developed chromatographic methods enable separation, identification, and quantification of chemical substances in complex mixtures. Chromatography can separate and detect an extensive array of substances, ranging from ions to compounds, small molecules to biomolecules, nonpolar to polar molecules, and non-volatile to volatile substances.
This section will highlight new and fundamental developments in separation technologies and approaches, sorbent materials, mobile phases, sample preparation methods, and detection techniques, to improve the sensitivity, selectivity and efficiency of chromatographic techniques. Topics covered by this section include but are not limited to the following:
- Gas chromatography;
- Liquid chromatography (e.g., HPLC, UPLC);
- Supercritical fluid chromatography;
- High-performance thin-layer chromatography;
- Two-dimensional chromatography (e.g., GC × GC, LC × LC);
- Instrumental and column developments;
- Novel applications of chromatographic techniques;
- Green analytical chemistry;
- Green sample preparation;
- Metric tools for method evaluation.
