This report, which is a sequence of a series of reviews, records the most important chiral selectors (CSs) applied in CE. It highlights the CSs that were used during the period 2014 to mid-2016. In this review, method developments, validations, and pharmaceutical along with biomedical applications are presented. The different CSs include CDs, antibiotics, cyclofructants, linear and branched oligo- and polysaccharides, and polymeric surfactants. In addition, the advantages of these CSs, along with their chiral recognition mechanisms, and their performance, are discussed.
