Derivatisation

Technique used to chemically transform a compound so as to give more effective chromatographic properties (increased volatility, reduced polarity, reduced activity, introduction of chromophores). For example conversion of fatty acids to their respective methyl esters to reduce their activity and improve chromatographic peak shape.
