Supercritical Fluid Chromatography is a thorough and encompassing reference that defines the concept of contemporary practice in supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) and how it should be implemented in laboratory science. Supercritical fluid chromatography is a rapidly developing laboratory technique for the separation and identification of compounds in mixtures. Significant improvements in instrumentation have rekindled interest in supercritical fluid chromatography in recent years and enhanced its standing in the scientific community. Many scientists are familiar with column liquid chromatography and its strengths and weaknesses, but the possibilities brought to the table by SFC are less well-known and underappreciated. Given the changes that have taken place in SFC, this book presents contemporary aspects and applications of the technique, introducing SFC as a natural solution in the larger field of separation science. The focus on state-of-the-art instrumental SFC distinguishes this work as the go-to reference work for those interested in implementing the technique at a more advanced level than is currently used in many laboratories.
