Microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography

  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-007320",
  "term": "Microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "An electrokinetic chromatography technique that employs a microemulsion as the pseudostationary phase in the separation buffer. The microemulsion, a thermodynamically stable mixture of oil, water, and surfactant, provides a unique environment for solute partitioning. This method is effective for separating hydrophobic compounds that are difficult to resolve by conventional micellar electrokinetic chromatography.",
