C c - noun chromatography the technique of separating and analysing the components of a mixture of liquids or gases by selective adsorption in, for example, a column of powder (column chromatography) or on a strip of paper (paper chromatography) 3
- noun chromatography any of various processes of chemical analysis in which the constituents of a mixture are separated into distinct bands or spots on an adsorbent material 3
- noun chromatography Chromatography is a sorption process in which adsorbents are used, usually in a column. 3
- noun chromatography The separation of a mixture by passing it in solution or suspension or as a vapor (as in gas chromatography) through a medium in which the components move at different rates. 1
- noun chromatography the separation of mixtures into their constituents by preferential adsorption by a solid, as a column of silica (column chromatography) or a strip of filter paper (paper chromatography) or by a gel. 1
- noun chromatography (chemistry) Any of various techniques for the qualitative or quantitative separation of the components of mixtures of compounds; all characterised by the use of a mobile phase (gas or liquid) moving relative to a stationary phase (liquid or solid) - the differences between the rates of migration of the compounds between the two phases effects the separation. 0
