Analytical Chemistry 2.0: Chromatographic and Electrophoretic Methods

This chapter from David Harvey's complete e-text covers the general theory of column chromatography, GC, HPLC, and electrophoresis. Available as a downloadable pdf this 102 page chapter includes diagrams, examples and problems and provides an excellent introduction to separations. The website is available here .

Separation Science

Designed as a faculty resource on separation science, with a particular emphasis on chromatographic separations.  The published materials focus on active learning but may be modified to fit any curricular pedagogy. Materials include a text, sample problems, and an instructor's manual. The website is available here .

Craig countercurrent extraction machine applet

This site provides a useful applet that demonstrates countercurrent extraction. The explanation of the method is short, but good. The level is appropriate for undergraduate students. The Applet itself is well designed and provides a useful exercise for students around which homework or small-group waork could be developed. The use of color is particularly helpful. The…

Separation Science Animations

This site from TRSL is the main site that links to many animations related to how chromatography systems work. Most of the animations are quite good and would be helpful to students when trying to visualize what occurs in an instrument during an separation (e.g. injection, detection, etc.). Site does require FLASH to run. The website is available…

Chromatography theory and modes

This site is an introductory lecture in outline form about chromatography. It appears directed toward biochemical separations. The coverage is broad but not deep. Discussions of counter-current separations, gel permeation, and ion exchange are accompanied by some mention of partition, paper, and gas chromatography The website is available here .
