It's ee rie : A new method for quantitative measurement of ee values is described. The method exploits the unique electrooptic properties of the chiral smectic A liquid‐crystal phase and is potentially applicable to the high‐throughput (>10 6 determinations per day) measurement of ee values for any chiral analyte.
