Advances in the techniques of multi-dimensional and comprehensive chromatography, and when
coupled with mass spectrometry
Part 1 of this keynote presentation summarises the principles of two dimensional gas and liquid chromatography (2DGC
and 2DLC) and briefly introduces the theory accounting for the increase in separation resulting from a greater peak
capacity than for the one dimensional (1D) mode. The advance in the techniques from multi-dimensional to comprehensive
chromatography is discussed. The more recent development of multi-dimensional chromatography ion mobility mass
spectrometry receives a mention to highlight the added dimension of molecular size and shape (molecular collision cross
section) as an enabling tool for increasing component separation and peak capacity. Although both the techniques of 2DGC
and LC are considered the focus is on 2DGC, principally when coupled to mass spectrometry
