Partition chromatography which uses two immiscible liquid phases and no solid support. One liquid acts as the stationary phase and the other as the mobile phase.
Notes:
  1. The method employs a variety of systems using either gravity or centrifugal force to retain the stationary phase in the column.
  2. The method allows continuous elution of the mobile phase and on-line monitoring of the effluent.
