The development of chiral stationary phases for HPLC has resulted in renewed interest in methods for the separation of drug enantiomers. This paper provides a brief overview of some of the more recent approaches to the direct resolution of drug enantiomers by HPLC with particular emphasis on their quantification in biological fluids.
