Advances in Chromatography: Volume 45 / Edition 1

by Eli Grushka, Nelu Grinberg

Overview

For more than four decades, scientists and researchers have relied on the Advances in Chromatography series for the most up-to-date information on a wide range of developments in chromatographic methods and applications. Volume 45 of this authoritative series once again compiles the work of expert contributors in order to present timely and cutting-edge reviews on a variety of related topics.

This volume focuses on applying various chromatographic techniques to combinatorial methods and high-throughput analyses. The authors address various limitations to traditional techniques and present developments that enable scientists to analyze a higher volume of smaller molecules under high-throughput conditions more efficiently. Other practical topics include discussions of selection criteria for using alternative solvents and reagents, minimum requirements for utilizing readily available instrumentation and methods for new applications, the use of high-throughput purification for obtaining higher quality leads, and new chromatographic data on organic endocrine disrupters.

Advances in Chromatography: Volume 45 provides a good starting point to gain quick and up-to-date knowledge of the field and its most recent developments. Each author's clear presentation of topics and vivid illustrations make the material accessible and engaging to a variety of chemists with different levels of technical skill.

Inform

Ten contributions report the latest developments in separation science. Some of the topics are capillary electrochromatography as an alternative to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for nonvolatile analytes, biomembrane chromatography using reverse- phase HPLC for protein purification and biophysical studies of peptides and proteins at lipid-like surfaces, trace metal determination and speciation performed by liquid chromatography methods, and the linear dependence of relative retention values on the nature of the carrier gas and average column pressure in gas-liquid chromatography. Other papers spotlight advances in the field of hyphenation, profile temperature-responsive stationary phases in HPLC, and highlight the HPLC study of catechins in tea extracts. Annotation c.
