Description
Book SynopsisCapillary electrophoresis (CE) has become an established method with widespread recognition as an analytical technique of choice in numerous analytical laboratories, including industrial and academic sectors. Pharmaceutical and biochemical research and quality control are the most important CE applications. This book provides a comparative assessment of related techniques on mode selection, method development, detection, and quantitative analysis and estimation of pharmacokinetic parameters and broadens the understanding of modern CE applications, developments, and prospects. It introduces the fundamentals of CE and clearly outlines the procedures used to mitigate several barriers, such as detection limits, signal detection, changing capillary environment, resolution separation of analytes, and hyphenation of mass spectrometry with CE, for a range of analytical problems. Each chapter outlines a specific electrophoretic variant with detailed instructions and some standard operating procedures. In this respect, the book meets its desired goal of rendering assistance to lovers of electrophoresis.
Trade Review"Decades after its introduction, capillary electrophoresis has evolved into a mature technique, especially in the field of pharmaceutical analysis. This book focuses on a number of fields in which this separation technique has proven its unique usefulness, such as chiral separations and the analysis of protein biopharmaceuticals. It highlights the current state of the art and offers high-quality general chapters and overviews as well as topical chapters. Recommended reading for all those involved in pharmaceutical analysis, albeit academically or industrially!"
