Abstract:
This overview has been written as a tribute to a luminary of chromatography--Csaba Gyula Horváth, who passed away earlier this year. Since the scope of his work was enormous, the following pages focus only on one single aspect of his scientific activities, capillary electrochromatography. He was a visionary, recognizing the great potential of this method and devoted a large part of his efforts to studies of problems related to CEC, covering a huge variety of issues embracing the theoretical foundation, instrumentation, and column technology. During the period of time from 1996 to 2004, Csaba Horváth published almost 30 excellent papers concerning capillary electrochromatography, which are reviewed in this article.
