Chromatography is a common and essential technique to measure quality and purity by separating mixtures into pure components and analyzing them. For this reason, chromatography is essential to the safe development of pharmaceutical drugs, agricultural and food products, cosmetics and cleaning products, as well as a host of processes in which control of chemistry is crucial. Because chromatography is the technique of choice for analyzing both pure and impure substances, its use is mandated by the FDA at all stages of commercial drug development.
