Abstract
Centrifugal Chromatography has been developed to select and recover desired compounds at analytical, preparative, pilot, and industrial scales. Centrifugal portioning chromatography, a biphasic liquid process technology, is used for the fractionation and purification of biologic matrices, synthetic solutions, and natural products. According to the polarity and solubility of the desired molecule, FCPC permits the selection and recovery of desired compounds while achieving up to 99% purity levels. With no costly solid packing material or columns to replace, purification by FCPC reduces batch to batch costs and eliminates the risk of contamination between products. Assuring 100% recovery of samples, liquid-liquid centrifugal partition chromatography is extremely flexible allowing for both ascending and descending modes of operation with no loss of compounds due to adsorption, and no denaturing of sensitive molecules
