Abstract
Chromatography, in its simplest form, may be described as a process that allows resolution of a mixture of compounds as a consequence of the different rates at which they move through a stationary phase, under the influence of a mobile phase. This general definition does not restrict the nature of the phases involved and indeed it is the wide range of such phases that makes the techniques of chromatography so diverse. For example, the mobile phase could be a gas passing over a stationary liquid phase, leading to gas-liquid chromatography, or both the mobile and stationary phases could be liquids leading to liquid-liquid partition chromatography. This chapter is concerned only with those techniques in which liquid mobile phases are employed; those techniques employing gas as the mobile phase are discussed in Chapter 3.
