Recent Advancements and Comprehensive Review on Hyphenated Techniques
Abstract: Hyphenated techniques represent a powerful class of analytical methods that combine two or more established techniques – typically a separation method with a spectroscopic detection technique – to achieve enhanced analytical performance. First introduced by Hirschfeld in 1980, the term “hyphenation” refers to the online coupling of such methods, enabling more precise, sensitive, and comprehensive analysis of complex samples. These techniques exploit the strengths of individual methods while overcoming their …
