The implications of chirality in different environments are already well known and reported extensively in the literature. Capillary Electrophoresis, a separation technique that only requires few nanoliters of sample, has demonstrated its potential for chiral analysis in the past years. The aim of this article is to provide an overview on the fundamentals and characteristics of Chiral Capillary Electrophoresis as well as the main advances and trends in this topic. Special attention is paid to the most recent technological and methodological developments achieved mainly in the most employed separation mode (Electroki-netic Chromatography). The most noteworthy and recent applications reported on the enantiomeric separation and determination of compounds in pharmaceutical, food, biomedical, environmental or forensic samples will also be critically overviewed. The characteristics of the developed methodologies will be detailed in Tables and future trends will also be discussed. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
