Hydrophilic interaction chromatography (or hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography, HILIC) is a version of partition chromatography which occupies the opposite end of the partition spectrum from reversed phase liquid chromatography. Both are distinct from normal phase liquid chromatography in that water is part of the mobile phase, and thus not adsorption chromatography. The name was suggested by Dr. Andrew Alpert in his 1990 paper on the subject. He described the chromatographic mechanism for it as liquid-liquid partition chromatography where analytes elute in order of increasing polarity, a conclusion supported by a review and re-evaluation of published data.

Famous quotes containing the word interaction:
“Recent studies that have investigated maternal satisfaction have found this to be a better prediction of mother-child interaction than work status alone. More important for the overall quality of interaction with their children than simply whether the mother works or not, these studies suggest, is how satisfied the mother is with her role as worker or homemaker. Satisfied women are consistently more warm, involved, playful, stimulating and effective with their children than unsatisfied women.”
—Alison Clarke-Stewart (20th century)
