HPLC
The High Performance Liquid Chromatograph (HPLC) is used for precise measurement of the concentrations of individual compounds in a mixture. It is equipped with UV and RI detectors. It is one of the widely used techniques in the fields like: clinical research, biochemical research and Industrial quality control, etc. The principle involved in HPLC testing is the separation of compounds in a mixture. Segregation of compounds is due to their relative differences in travel through the column on the application of pressure exerted through the mobile phase or carrying liquid. The HPLC is an important tool in organic chemistry to separate, identify and quantify the components in the mixture of compounds.
