Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is used for small-molecule analysis and the separation of chiral compounds, enantiomers and other low-molecular-weight compounds. SFC differs from traditional LC in that its mobile phase is carbon dioxide, which necessitates a completely pressurized flow path. This pressure must be maintained with automated back-pressure regulators, and the units can be bulky […]
