Liquid Chromatography: Detecting Bisphenol A in Water

water bottles 0105221 1185x800 - Liquid Chromatography: Detecting Bisphenol A in Water

Liquid chromatography (LC) is a well-known extraction methodology which is widely utilized in the analysis of solutions, where the primary objective is to detect and quantify contaminant elements. The basic premise of liquid chromatography revolves around the separation of a solution’s constituents by their ionic or molecular properties. This separation occurs when the sample is strategically injected into an LC column containing […]
