The Dynamics of Electrophoresis

This book is unique in its use of a combination of computer simulation and experimental data to illustrate electrophoretic principles. The dynamics, i.e. transient behavior, of the components involved are described for these methods:

* isoelectric focusing
* isotachophoresis
* zone electrophoresis
* moving boundary electrophoresis.

The book makes the convincing argument that it is possible to use computer simulation to select optimal experimental conditions and, in fact, 'do experiments on a computer'.

Electrophoreticists, chromatographers, and separation scientists will find this text indispensable in understanding the theory underlying electrophoresis.
