Combinatorial chemistry analytical procedures

The characterization of the expressed constituent of a VCL is greatly facilitated by the availability of efficient analytical methods such as mass and NMR spectrometries, capillary electrophoresis, micro-HPLC, etc. These can be applied either to the isolated constituent or even directly to its complex with the target (for the use of mass spectrometry, see [10]). It is clear that the development of micro-methods and laboratory-on-a-chip [11] procedures will have a strong impact on the implementation of combinatorial chemistry approaches.
