Abstract
The historical development, present ‘state-of-the-art’ and future projections of separation science in the analytical context are presented, using specific examples to illustrate various aspects. Despite notable advances in the separation technology that must precede the application of a specific measurement procedure and I or detection device, many problems and difficulties remain. The difficulties are compounded by the development of instrumentation often presenting an apparently high degree of automation but possibly with unsuspected jeopardy to the reliability of analytical results.
