Abstract

As knowledge and civilization advance, forensic science and technology are continuously evolving. Chromatography, a key analytical method known for its simplicity, speed, and high sensitivity, is extensively utilized worldwide for detecting toxic substances and drugs in forensic investigations. This paper offers a thorough analysis of chromatographic techniques from three key angles: the historical development of chromatography, its classification based on phase states, chromatographic separation mechanisms and stationary phase characteristics, and its various applications. Additionally, the paper forecasts future trends in chromatographic analysis technology, aiming to inspire new directions for the advancement and research of other forensic science technologies.


Keywords
