title: Chiral separations in capillary electrophoresis.
abstract: The marked increase in the number of communications on the utilization of electrophoresis for practical chiral separations within the last three years is the most evident, and the most important fact. It reveals that the basic period of intensive research in the field is finished. The search for chiral selectors discriminating racemates in a reasonably analytical manner and the study of both the mechanism and physicochemical aspects of the chiral discrimination process were the main features of that period. Here, we review the state of the art in the field and state the references of the related literature up to the end of 1998.
