Theory of capillary electrochromatography.
The present state of the theory of capillary electrochromatography (CEC) is reviewed. Emphasis is placed on electroosmosis and the electrical double layer, and the generally good understanding of the factors affecting the electroosmotic flow in CEC columns. The relation of CEC to other electrically driven separations are described, along with band broadening, and the influence of column temperature in CEC. The theoretical potential of CEC is assessed from the standpoint of current and future column technology, and likely future application areas are described.
