Enantioseparations by capillary electrochromatography

The review summarizes recent developments in enantioseparations by capillar y electrochromatography (CEC). Selected fundamental aspects of CEC are disc ussed in order to stress those features which may allow the success of this technique in the competitive field of enantioseparations. In addition, the comparative characteristics of the different modes of chiral CEC and the s tationary phases are presented. The effects of the characteristics of the s tationary and liquid phases and operational conditions on the separation re sults are discussed. Finally, some future trends are briefly addressed.
