A chromatographic column assembly is described, comprising a channel and a flow inducer. The channel comprises an inlet for receiving a sample liquid and an outlet, and is adapted for separating the sample liquid into components when the sample liquid flows through the channel in an axial direction from the inlet to the outlet. The flow inducer is adapted for controllably inducing, when the sample fluid is flowing through the channel, a motion of the sample liquid in the channel in a plane substantially orthogonal to the axial direction. 117.-. (canceled)18. A chromatographic column assembly comprising:a channel comprising an inlet for receiving a sample liquid and an outlet, the channel being adapted for separating the sample liquid into components when said sample liquid flows through the channel in an axial direction from said inlet to said outlet; anda controllable flow inducer for inducing, when the sample fluid is flowing through the channel, a motion of said sample liquid in the channel in a plane substantially orthogonal to said axial direction.19. The chromatographic column assembly according to claim 18 , wherein said controllable flow inducer is a vortex flow inducer.20. The chromatographic column assembly according to claim 18 , wherein said controllable flow inducer comprises a plurality of electrodes arranged in or on said channel claim 18 , the plurality of electrodes being adapted for generating an electric field suitable for inducing said motion.21. The chromatographic column assembly according to claim 18 , wherein said controllable flow inducer comprises a plurality of electrodes arranged in or on said channel claim 18 , the plurality of electrodes inducing a motion by acting on charged and/or polarizable constituents of said sample liquid claim 18 , independent of the macroscopic flow of the sample liquid.22. The chromatographic column assembly according to claim 20 , further comprising an electrical insulator for electrically insulating said ...
