This reference presents a comprehensive overview of the principles, methods, and fundamental theories used in chromatographic separations-identifying recent advances, mathematical relationships, and useful design techniques for optimal system operation and control of chromatographic variables. Supplemented with more than 300 equations, Chromatography Theory is an authoritative and essential source for chromatographers and mass spectroscopists; analytical chemists; chemical engineers; lab technicians and researchers; environmental and biopharmaceutical chemists, biochemists, and biotechnologists, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.

This work introduces scientists of all disciplines to the chromatographic process and how it functions. The basic principles of chromatographic separation and specific chromatographic procedures, including gas, liquid and thin-layer chromatography, are covered. For each separation method the book details its characteristics, the instrumentation required, the procedures necessary for effective use, areas of application and examples of its use.;This work is intended for analytical chemists, laboratory technicians, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in analytical chemistry or separation science courses.
