The department of Fluid Phase Separations (FPS) is one of the
five departments of the Institute of Analytical Chemistry of the
Czech Academy of Sciences based in Brno, Czech Republic. The
efforts of the institute aim toward utilization of the
analytical chemistry in diverse branches of science and
technology including medicine, environmental protection,
foodstuff production, and high-purity materials. We engage in
developments of theoretical background, applications, and
instrumentation of separation and spectroscopic methods of
analytical chemistry.
The FPS department was
established in 2013 by merging the Liquid Phase Separations
department and the Supercritical Fluid Extraction and
Chromatography department.
Nowadays, research of the
FPS department focuses on the theory, methodology, and
development of analytical instrumentation for electrophoretic
and chromatographic separations and various analytical
applications and can be divided into six research themes:
