What Does CEC Stand For?
CEC stands for Capillary Electrochromatography
Capillary Electrochromatography (CEC) is a hybrid analytical technique that combines features of capillary electrophoresis and chromatography. It utilizes a capillary column packed with stationary phases to separate analytes based on their size and charge, while an electric field drives the migration of substances. CEC is particularly beneficial for its high resolution, fast analysis times, and minimal sample volume requirements, making it ideal for the separation of complex mixtures in fields such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and environmental monitoring.
