There has recently been published an extensive review of the methodologies used
to separate amino acid enantiomers. The review covers chiral stationary phases,
chiral mobile phases and precolumn derivatisation with chiral reagents to
obtain diastereomers, which are separated by conventional chromatography. Types
of chromatography discussed are LC, GC, SFC, and CE.
