Griffiths, P R

Supercritical fluid chromatography (SCF) can now be said to be in its early adolescence. Born in 1962, when Ernst Klesper made the first report of the separation of metal porphyrins using dense gas chromatography, SFC struggled for acceptance through the 1970s and then started to flex its muscles in the early part of this decade. Excitement over SFC was generated by the reported high-resolution separations of large molecules using open tubular columns of the type used for capillary gas chromatography (GC) with supercritical carbon dioxide as the mobile phase. Peter R. Griffiths of the University of California, Riverside reports on the 1988 Workshop on Supercritical Fluid Chromatography held at Park City, Utah in January.
