Recent progress in chiral separation principles in capillary electrophoresis

Electrophoresis. 2000 Dec;21(18):4112-35. doi: 10.1002/1522-2683(200012)21:18<4112::AID-ELPS4112>3.0.CO;2-T.

Abstract

This review summarizes recent developments in the field of chiral separations by electromigration techniques including capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE), capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE), isotachophoresis (ITP), electrokinetic chromatography (EKC), and capillary electrochromatography (CEC). This overview focuses on the development of new chiral selectors and the introduction of new techniques rather than applications of already established selectors and methods. The mechanisms of the different chiral separation principles are discussed.
