Definition of Adsorption chromatography

Glossary of liquid chromatographic terms
Adsorption chromatography
One of the basic LC modes. Relies on the adsorption process to effect the separation. Silica gel and alumnae are the most frequently used supports; molecules are retained by the interaction of their polar functional groups with the surface functional groups (e.g., silanols of silica).

Chromatography
Chromatography (from Greek χρώμα:chroma, colour and γραφειν:"grafein" to write) is the collective term for a family of laboratory techniques for the separation of mixtures. It involves passing a mixture dissolved in a "mobile phase" through a stationary phase, which separates the analyte to be measured from other molecules in the mixture and allows it to be isolated.
