Chromatography is a laboratory technique used to identify drugs in biological samples. Chromatography uses the chemical properties of different chemicals to separate them based on how well they 'stick' to the solid components of the base while a liquid is run past them. This was originally performed on plant pigments and in dye production. Chromatography received its name from the greek words meaning colour writing. The name ChromaRight takes its name from this analytical technique and changes the write to right to signify the importance of providing the correct answer everytime.
