  "term": "Elute",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "To remove an adsorbed substance from a stationary phase by washing it with a solvent. In chromatography, this process involves passing a mobile phase through the column to carry the separated components out. The rate at which a substance elutes depends on its affinity for both the stationary and mobile phases.",
