Review: This book records some of the advances that took place in the twentieth century in separation science. The trend throughout was on high throughput, increased efficiency, smaller sample size, less waste, high resolution, and more sensitive detection methods. The 35 experts cover the most recent advances in chromatography, electrophoresis, field-flow chromatography for high-speed and high-throughput analysis, and supercritical fluid chromatography for high-speed and high-throughput analysis. Current techniques in solid-phase extraction, microfluidics, capillary and slab-gel electrophoresis, and in gas, ion, affinity, and thin-layer chromatography are covered as well as modern detection and purification processes for new biomedical compounds.
