Chromatographic Method Development

This book is a comprehensive compilation of modern and cutting-edge chromatographic techniques written by pharmaceutical industry experts, academics, and vendors in the field. This book is an inclusive guide to developing all chromatographic methods

(such as liquid chromatography and gas chromatography). It covers modern techniques for developing methods using chromatographic development software, requirements for validations, discussion on orthogonality, and how to transfer methods from HPLC to UHPLC. The text introduces some newer techniques that are heavily employed by chemists analyzing proteins and RNAi, as well as novel techniques such as counter current chromatography. This book is valuable for both the novice starting out in undergraduate labs and those who are new to the pharmaceutical industry and is a useful reference for seasoned analysts.
