CE and CEC Reviews 2001

This compilation of review articles published in ELECTROPHORESIS in 2000 is your reference tool and introduction to recent developments in the field of capillary electrophoresis (CE) and capillary electrochromatography (CEC) !Both fields are increasingly employed in many areas of life sciences. CE and CEC use virtually the same instrumentation and complement each other. Consequently, the side-by-side use of both methods in research and routine laboratories will be on the rise. Therefore, there is currently a need for specialized books in CE and CEC to provide users with the latest development and new directions in both techniques.The various review articles are grouped in the following parts:o Overviews and fundamental aspectso Techniques, methodologies and applicationso Microfabrication, miniaturization and capillary array electrophoresiso Stationary phases, pseudo-stationary phases, separation media and additiveso Chiral separation principles and applicationso Derivatization, preconcentration, detection and applicationsCE and CEC are important analytical separation tools of equal importance for many basic and applied researches.
