Affinity monolith preconcentrators for polymer microchip capillary electrophoresis

Adamantyl-functionalized polymer monolith for capillary electrochromatography.

An adamantyl (ADM)-functionalized monolithic stationary phase was newly synthesized by a single-step copolymerization of 1-adamantyl-(alpha-trifluoromethyl) acrylate, ethylene dimethacrylate, and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid in order to prevent the peak tailing of basic solutes in capillary electrochromatography and was compared with butyl methacrylate (BMA)-based one. The ADM s...

Contactless conductivity detector for microchip capillary electrophoresis.

A microfabricated electrophoresis chip with an integrated contactless conductivity detection system is described. The new contactless conductivity microchip detector is based on placing two planar sensing aluminum film electrodes on the outer side of a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) microchip (without contacting the solution) and measuring the impedance of the solution in the separation chann...

Affinity Capillary Electrophoresis

Microchip capillary electrophoresis with electrochemical detection.

A novel microchip capillary electrophoresis system with electrochemical detection, using the replaceable microelectrode, is first reported. This kind of electrode can be fabricated in general laboratories and can be replaced quickly with electrodes of different materials according to the requirements of experiments. The end-column electrochemical detection on microchip CE was achieved by fixing...

Clinical analysis by microchip capillary electrophoresis.

Clinical analysis often requires rapid, automated, and high-throughput analytical systems. Microchip capillary electrophoresis (CE) has the potential to achieve very rapid analysis (typically seconds), easy integration of multiple analytical steps, and parallel operation. Although it is currently still in an early stage of development, there are already many reports in the literature describing...
