Abstract
In countercurrent distribution, as in other methods of separation, a solute band broadens during the analysis. This allows the definition of theoretical plates, resolution, and peak capacities in terms of CCD parameters, namely, the number of transfers and the partition coefficients. The significance and the implication of the above quantities in evaluating CCD is discussed. When possible, comparisons with other methods of separation are made.Keywords
