Chiral pollutants listed

As in the case of chromatography, a chiral selector is also required in CE for enantiomeric resolution. Generally, suitable chiral compounds are used in the background electrolyte (BGE) as additives and hence are called chiral selectors or chiral BGE additives. There are only a few publications available that deal with the chiral resolution on a capillary coated with the chiral selector in CE. The analysis of the chiral pollutants discussed in this chapter is restricted only to using chiral selectors in the BGE. The most commonly used chiral BGE additives are cyclo-dextrins, macrocyclic glycopeptide antibiotics, proteins, crown ethers, ligand exchangers, and alkaloids.A list of these chiral BGE additives is presented in Table 1.
