Chromatography & Separation techniques

Chromatography is a procedure for separating components of a mixture. The various components of the mixture travel through the stationary phase at different speeds, causing them to separate from one another. By using chromatographic technique, we can Precise separation, analyses, and purification. there are two phases in chromatography 1) Stationary phase and 2 mobile phase. They are 5 different types of chromatographic techniques 1. Column Chromatography 2. Paper Chromatography 3. Thin Layer Chromatography 4. Gas-Liquid Chromatography (GLC) or Simply Gas Chromatography (GC) 5. High Performance Liquid Chromatography
