What Does CSP Stand For?
CSP stands for Chiral Stationary Phase
Chiral Stationary Phase (CSP) refers to a type of stationary phase used in chromatographic techniques, particularly in liquid chromatography, to enable the separation of chiral compounds. These compounds exist in two enantiomeric forms that are mirror images of each other, and CSPs are designed to interact differently with each enantiomer, allowing for their resolution and identification. CSPs play a crucial role in the pharmaceutical, biochemical, and food industries, where the purity and specificity of chiral substances are essential for effective product development and quality control.
