對分析員的日益增長的需求使得在分析化學領域的新技術和發展的快速交流成為最重要的。色譜儀自1968年首次建立以來，一直履行著色譜儀的這一功能。然而，在其間的幾年里，該期刊自身的發展是為了應對時代變遷和需求變化的挑戰。因此，定期審查編委會的組成，以反映利益的變化，并在以前未活躍于該領域的國家建立卓越中心。出版政策，包括論文數量和格式，都要接受持續的評估。

The ever increasing demands on the analyst make the rapid communication of new techniques and developments in the field of analytical chemistry of prime importance. CHROMATOGRAPHIA has been fulfilling this function for chromatography since it was first founded in 1968. During the intervening years, however, the journal has itself evolved to meet the challenges of changing times and demands. Thus, the composition of the Editorial Board is reviewed at regular intervals so as to reflect shifts in interest and the establishment of centres of excellence in countries that have not previously been active in the field. Publishing policy, including the number of papers and the format, are subject to continuous appraisal.
