Chromatography...

 Chromatography is use in many different ways and if you kinda don’t know the definition of Chromatography, well the Chromatography is a laboratory technique for the  separation of a mixture. Example if the mixture of something is dissolved in a fluid called the mobile phase, which carries it through a structure phase. If the various is a constituents of the mixture travel at the different speed it causing them to separate.

 Liquid Chromatography:
This is used in the word to test water samples to look for. It is used to analyse metal ions and organic compounds in solutions. It also use liquids which may incorporate hydrophilic, insoluble molecules. Samples are the Police, FBI and other detectives using this liquid chromatography to solve crimes. The can used this to determine the presence of cocaine in urine, alcohol in Blood.

Gas Chromatography:
To detect bombs, identify and quantify such drugs as alcohol, use in to forensics to compare fibres. Used to analyse volatile gases. In gas Chromatography helium is used to move a gaseous mixture through a column of absorbent material as well as it is used for specific Chromatography applications in the industrial hygiene, pharmaceutical and life science industries.

Thin layer Chromatography: It is a technique used to separate non-volatile textures, it is performed on a sheet of glass, plastic or aluminium foil which is coated with a thin layer of adsorbent material. TLC ( Thin layer Chromatography) is used to help determine the number of components in a mixture, the identity of compounds and the purity of a compound.

Paper Chromatography:
Is a method used to separate coloured chemicals or substances. It is primarily used as a teaching tool. Where it is used in the sequencing of DNA and RNA and is scientific studies it is used to identify unknown organic and inorganic compound form a mixture.
