High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a chemical analysis technique with wide applications, from food and medical safety to manufacturing. HPLC can detect vitamin D levels in blood serum or performance enhancing drugs in urine. The technique has even been used to synthesize blood and determine DNA evidence in forensic investigations. In biotechnical and pharmaceutical manufacturing, HPLC enhances the production process by increasing separation efficiency, improving resolution and shortening analysis time. Instrumentation and system automation have evolved to keep pace with the quality of materials that support HPLC and its applications.
