Chiral Separation Methods for Pharmaceutical and Biotechnological Products

This book provides readers with an understanding of chiral separations, and offers a handy guide for selecting the best separation method, saving considerable time and cost in product development. It also discusses chiral separations in the biotechnological and pharmaceutical industries, as well as for agriculture and food applications. Specific topics covered include high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), capillary electrophoresis (CE), computational studies, and enantiomer selection. This is an essential text for analytical and separations scientists in the biotechnological, pharmaceutical, agricultural, and food industries, as well as students.
