What is HPLC and Principal

Question

Accepted Answer

HPLC stands for High Performance Liquid Chromatography. It is a technique used to separate, identify, and quantify components in a mixture.

HPLC involves passing a liquid sample through a column filled with a stationary phase, where different components in the sample interact differently with the stationary phase and are separated based on their properties.
The separated components are detected and quantified as they exit the column, allowing for analysis of the sample composition.
HPLC is commonly used in pharmaceutical, environmental, and food industries for quality control and research purposes.
Principal refers to the principle of chromatography, where the separation of components is based on their differential interactions with the stationary phase.
