Etymology

The term 'chromatization' is derived from the word 'chromatography,' which comes from the Greek words 'chroma,' meaning 'color,' and 'grapho,' meaning 'to write.' Chromatography was first developed in the early 20th century by the Russian scientist Mikhail Tswett, who used it to separate plant pigments. Over time, the technique evolved and expanded beyond its initial applications to become a fundamental method in chemistry for analyzing and purifying substances. Accordingly, chromatization represents the broader application of chromatographic principles to various scientific fields, emphasizing its significance in modern analytical chemistry.
