Analyte mixtures and separation - 1

 

sample contains several target analyte(s)

 

NOTE: Most detectors can only detect one analyte at the time

Analytes need to be separated prior to their detection!

 

Can YOU think of elegant ways to separate the analytes prior to detection?

(hint: make use of your knowledge on partitioning)
