THE FEATURES OF RAPID COUNTER-CURRENT CHROMATOGRAPHIC SEPARATIONS

Pages 2074-2084 | Published online: 03 Nov 2011
 

Abstract

Among the reported high-speed counter-current chromatographic (CCC) separations, most of the separations have been achieved with a relatively long timeframe while only few showed characteristics of rapid separation. In the present article, rapid separations by HSCCC are reviewed and a new term “flash counter-current chromatography” (FCCC) is suggested to distinguish the rapid CCC separations from other methods. FCCC was defined as a separation possess in which the flow rate of mobile phase (mL) is equal to or greater than the square of the diameter of the column tubing (mm). The term may pilot the manufacturers of modern CCC instruments to improve the design of the apparatus and guide the CCC users to pursue rapid separations.
