Summary

This is the first resource to fully cover the instrumentation, method development, and applications of Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography (U-HPLC). It details both the benefits and limitations of this method in the pharmaceutical industry, clinical research, the food industry, and environmental services. It covers U-HPLC topics coupled with ultra-violet detector (UV) and mass spectrometer (MS), instrumentation frequently used in solving complex molecules. This is an essential reference for scientists who utilize chromatographic techniques, including in academia, as well as pharmaceutical, biotechnology, chemical, food, environmental, and related industries.
