Description:
High-speed countercurrent chromatography, a technique used to separate substances into their individual components, was first developed in the late 1970s when it overshadowed other methods of chromatography with its superior capacity to achieve rapid and efficient separation. This newer system is now employed in a wide range of applications, most notably for extracting medicinal drugs from plants or purifying dyes. High-Speed Countercurrent Chromatography is the first book to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of this technique. It covers all the latest developments in equipment, theory, and applications, as well as many topics not previously published anywhere, such as the purification of recombinant proteins directly from a crude E. coli lysate, the development of instruments that produce highly concentrated pure fractions, and successful CCC/MS interfacing. This book is both a practical guide for analytical elements and lab workers, and a valuable reference for students taking courses in separation methods at the graduate level. It also opens a window on future developments in this rapidly advancing field.
